Test Engineer, Quality Engineering, Systems Engineer
At Senra Systems, we believe that the future of manufacturing lies not in automation, but in configuration.
We supercharge electrical wire harness manufacturing through software configuration, transforming skilled assembly tasks into high-throughput production lines. We enable customers to design what they want, when they want it and deliver harness builds at record-breaking speed.
We're continuing to build the test organization at Senra Systems and are looking for a Senior Test Engineer to serve as a key technical leader of the function. This role goes beyond executing and developing test programs. You will be the senior technical authority for electrical test across the factory, responsible for establishing best practices, reviewing and approving test programs, solving the most challenging technical problems, and developing the next generation of Test Specialists.
You’ll partner closely with Manufacturing Engineering, Production, Quality, and Program Management to ensure every harness leaves the factory with robust, repeatable, and scalable verification processes.
If you enjoy solving difficult technical problems, mentoring others, and building systems, not just running them, this role is for you.
What You’ll DoTechnical Leadership
- Serve as the senior technical subject matter expert for electrical test across Senra Systems.
- Review, approve, and provide technical oversight for test programs developed by other Test Specialists prior to release.
- Establish and continuously improve standards, templates, and best practices for test program development, fixture design, troubleshooting, and documentation.
- Lead technical investigations for the most complex electrical failures, intermittent issues, and first-build challenges.
- Partner with Manufacturing Engineering to improve overall testability of new products and production processes.
- Drive continuous improvement initiatives that increase test robustness, throughput, and scalability.

- Perform electrical and mechanical verification per IPC/WHMA-A-620 and customer requirements.
- Ensure all test equipment is operated safely and remains within calibration requirements.
- Lead electrical verification activities for First Article Inspections (FAI).
- Serve as the senior technical representative during customer witness testing and source inspections.
- Partner with Quality and Engineering to resolve technical questions related to test acceptance criteria and engineering dispositions.
- Generate and review test reports, Certificates of Conformance (CoCs), and Nonconformance Reports (NCRs).
- Ensure complete traceability between test data, program revisions, serial numbers, and engineering documentation.
- Maintain records supporting customer deliverables and AS9100 compliance.
- Mentor and develop Test Specialists through hands-on coaching, technical reviews, and structured knowledge transfer.
- Serve as the first point of escalation for complex troubleshooting and technical questions.
- Provide technical onboarding and training for new team members.
- Foster a culture of technical excellence, continuous learning, and ownership within the test organization.
