TL;DR · Senior Manufacturing Test Engineer

The Senior Manufacturing Test Engineer joins the Launched Effects team to scale the manufacturing and delivery of the Altius family of autonomous aerial systems. This role involves maintaining ownership of production test flows, performing hands-on troubleshooting of complex electrical issues, and improving test systems to enhance automation, consistency, and cycle time. You will develop failure mode libraries, perform root cause analysis on non-conforming hardware, and collaborate with design and quality teams to support customer returns. Required skills include proficiency with Linux, Ubuntu, Python, and NixOS, alongside experience with electronics test equipment like oscilloscopes and spectrum analyzers. You must also navigate communication protocols such as USB, Ethernet, and CAN while utilizing PLM, MES, and TES systems to ensure high-quality production of advanced composites and modular payload integrations.

What you'll do

  • Maintain ownership of production test flow and provide hands-on troubleshooting for complex electrical issues.
  • Manage test capabilities across the manufacturing value stream from system-level checkouts to component-level validation.
  • Improve and sustain test systems to increase automation, consistency, cycle time, and test coverage.
  • Develop and update test work instructions in the MES and train technicians on equipment usage.
  • Determine root causes of product failures and recommend appropriate corrective actions (RCCA).
  • Analyze test data and provide detailed reports to identify defects and areas for improvement.
  • Collaborate with design engineers to provide feedback and recommendations for product enhancements based on test outcomes.
  • Maintain and calibrate test equipment to ensure precision and reliability during production.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor’s degree in Electrical/Electronics, Computer, Mechanical Engineering, or related fields.
  • 8+ years of relevant industry experience with emphasis on manufacturing test and product sustainment.
  • Familiarity with Linux, Ubuntu, Python, and NixOS.
  • Familiarity with electronics test equipment such as power supplies, oscilloscopes, function generators, and spectrum analyzers.
  • Experience with computer hardware communication protocols including USB, Ethernet, RS232, RS485, PCIe, HDMI, and CAN.
  • Experience with MES system integration and familiarity with PLM, MES, and TES systems.
  • Experience with projects involving the integration of electrical, mechanical, and software/firmware systems.
  • U.S. citizenship is required.
  • Familiarity with Python, LabVIEW, and/or MATLAB for data parsing and visualization (preferred).
  • Experience with test automation, PCBA design, and mechanical design (preferred).
  • Experience with contract manufacturers and ESS-related testing (preferred).
  • Active Security Clearance (preferred).
