Position Summary:
Under the direction of the Test Lab Manager, the engineer is responsible for analyzing test requests, specifications, related data, and drawings to determine the testing parameters, equipment, and detailed procedures necessary to perform required dynamic and static testing, as well as certification of vehicles, trailers, and components. The engineer will set up and perform these tests, then interpret and analyze test data to prepare detailed test reports.
This includes designing/fabricating custom fixtures, set up/calibration of instrumentation, data analysis and technical report writing. Testing requires operation of equipment to perform tests such as tension/compression machines, salt spray, environmental chamber, UV cabinet, and hydraulic/pneumatic equipment with load cells amongst others. Use of CMM, 3D scanning, micrometers, calipers, gages, and other mechanical, electrical, and electronic test gear is also expected of the engineer.
