We enable customers to enhance the safety, sustainability, resiliency, and productivity of their people, plants, and assets.
 

Responsibilities

• Test Design & Development: Creating comprehensive test plans and procedures to evaluate products and equipment against design parameters. Develop SOW and RFQ for external automation/testing suppliers.
• Diagnostics & Troubleshooting: Using tools like oscilloscopes and multimeters to isolate malfunctions down to the component level.
• Automation: Developing test software and scripts to automate repetitive testing tasks.
• Root Cause Analysis: Investigating product failures to determine if they stem from design flaws, firmware bugs, or manufacturing issues.
• Documentation:  Ensure proper documentation, backup, and approvals for supported equipment (AS9100 & Mil spec…)

 

Key Skills & Tools, Major Hardware ATE Platforms - Automated test equipment (ATE) platforms are classified into hardware-centric systems for manufacturing and software-driven frameworks for broader electronics validation.
 

• Technical Proficiencies: Proficiency in reading PCB schematics, soldering, and familiarity with standards like ISO or MIL-STD.
• Programming: Scripting languages for automation frameworks.
  National Instruments PXI (PCI eXtensions for Instrumentation): A modular, software-defined platform favored for high-speed digital and RF functional testing.
• NI TestStand: The industry-standard test executive for sequencing and managing tests written in various languages (Python, C++, LabVIEW).
• LabVIEW: a graphical development environment by National Instruments (NI) used by engineers to design automated test, measurement, and control systems.
• Keysight Eggplant: A GUI-based automation tool that uses AI and image recognition to test interfaces across multiple platforms.
  Instrument Control: Communicating with hardware via protocols like GPIB, USB, Ethernet, RS232, and PXI from thousands of vendors.
• Data Acquisition (DAQ): Measuring real-world physical phenomena such as voltage, temperature, and pressure in real-time.
• Design Validation: Automating complex R&D tests that require sweeping across different environmental variables (e.g., temperature or power).
  Manufacturing Test: High-throughput systems that verify product specs on a production line before shipping.
