As a Lead Manufacturing Test Engineer at GE Health Care, you will own and maintain manufacturing test systems that verify the quality, performance, and safety of CVUS ultrasound probes. This role focuses on design, maintenance, optimization, and continuous improvement of these systems and works closely with engineering, quality, and operations to support production readiness, regulatory compliance, and manufacturing excellence.

• Own and maintain manufacturing test systems used for functional, performance, quality, and safety verification of CVUS ultrasound probes.
• Lead troubleshooting and root cause analysis for test system failures, yield issues, and test escapes.
• Develop, validate, and release test hardware, fixtures, instrumentation, and software to support current and next‑generation products.
• Ensure test systems meet regulatory, safety, and quality requirements (e.g., electrical safety, acoustic performance, traceability).
• Drive continuous improvement initiatives for manufacturing processes, tooling, and equipment to improve yield, cycle time, reliability, and cost.
• Identify and implement opportunities for automation, error proofing, and test optimization.
• Support manufacturing line capacity expansions, product introductions, and engineering changes.
• Partner locally and globally with Manufacturing Engineering, R&D, Quality, Supplier Quality, and Operations to resolve production issues and implement sustainable solutions.
• Support design for manufacturability and testability (DFM/DFT) feedback during product development phases.
• Provide technical input for risk assessments (PFMEA), control plans, validation activities, and calibration requirements.
• Develop in‑depth expertise in ultrasound probe manufacturing and test technologies.
• Serve as a technical mentor for junior engineers and technicians; provide informal guidance and training.
• Use sound engineering judgment to propose solutions that may fall outside of standard parameters, with appropriate review and guidance.
• Identify areas of continuous improvement for tooling/fixturing used in testing processes and other best practices to strengthen product quality and engineering efficiency.

• Bachelor’s degree from an accredited university or college in Engineering or a related technical discipline.
• Minimum 3 years of experience supporting manufacturing test systems in a regulated industry (medical devices preferred).
• Strong oral and written communication skills with the ability to work effectively in cross-functional teams and communicate with individuals at all levels of the organization.
• Strong understanding of hardware, software, instrumentation, and data acquisition systems.
• Demonstrated ability to analyze data, diagnose complex technical problems, and implement robust solutions.
• Proven organizational and project management skills; ability to plan, document, and execute technical programs.
• Legal authorization to work in the U.S. is required. We will not sponsor individuals for employment visas, now or in the future, for this job opening.

• Proficiency with LabVIEW for development, maintenance, and troubleshooting of automated manufacturing test systems.
• Mechanical design experience using AutoCAD or Solidworks.
• Experience with process improvement methodologies (Lean, Six Sigma, or similar).
