• Design and implement test plans for high‑speed, mixed‑signal PCAs and instrument assemblies, covering analog/digital interfaces, ADCs/DACs, FPGAs, and power distribution systems.
• Create test requirements and coverage matrices with hardware and software stakeholders, optimizing test coverage versus test time.
• Analyze test data to identify failure root causes and trends, implement corrective actions, and drive design‑for‑testability enhancements.
• Drive continuous test improvement to increase accuracy, final product reliability, and adapt to new measurement requirements.

• Bachelor’s degree or above in computer science, electrical engineering, or a related field.
• Proficiency in testing analog/digital interfaces, ADCs/DACs, and high‑speed serial protocols (e.g., USB, PCIe, Ethernet).
• 5+ years of experience developing, maintaining, and operating automated test routines for mixed‑signal electronics.
• Hands‑on experience with high‑speed oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, network analyzers, signal generators, and power supplies.
• Flexibility to work in fast‑paced, mid‑volume production environments with shifting priorities.

• Working knowledge of surface‑mount technology (SMT), including assembly and rework.
• 1+ year of experience with embedded software development in C/C++.
