Electronics Test Development Engineer

Description

The Electronics Test Development Engineer is responsible for designing, building, and maintaining automated test stations. This role bridges R&D and manufacturing by developing the test infrastructure required to validate new electronic/RF hardware designs and ensure quality during high-volume production.

Key Responsibilities

• Test      Architecture: Design and develop automated test equipment (ATE), test      fixtures, and complex electronic systems.
• Test      Automation: Write, debug, and maintain automated test software using LabVIEW      2020-2026. Familiarity with LabVIEW PPL’s and distributed runtime engines.      Must know or have ability to learn various LabVIEW implementations.
• Hardware      Design: Create custom test interfaces, develop rack-based test      stations.
• Validation      & Debug: Collaborate with Engineers and Technicians to define test      plans, perform root-cause failure analysis, and validate hardware      functionality.
• Yield      Optimization: Analyze test data and statistical yield metrics to      optimize test coverage and reduce overall test time in manufacturing.
• Documentation:      Author standard operating procedures (SOPs), test coverage reports, and      Design-for-Test (DFT) guidelines.

Requirements

 Qualifications & Skills

• Education:      Bachelor’s in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related      field with proven relative experience.
• Programming:      Five years of LabVIEW 2020 – 2026 experience for test development and      instrument automation. Plus – if experienced in Actor Framework and/or      Python 3.1 or later.
• Lab  Equipment: Hands-on experience with rack-based test instruments such      as: RF Switches, oscilloscopes, digital multimeters (DMMs), logic      analyzers, spectrum analyzers, and power supplies.
• Hardware  Skills: Experience with schematics and basic board troubleshooting.
• Problem  Solving: Strong fault-finding skills with the ability to perform      root-cause analysis on analog, digital, or mixed-signal circuits and      rack-based instruments.
• Industry Knowledge: DFT methodologies, ATE platforms, and regulatory compliance      testing.
