Regular Test Engineer; Environmental Validation

Project description

The System Test Engineer ensures the elicitation of the requirements/KPI's, the test coverage of the System and System Architecture Requirements and quality of test cases along with the Test Plans.

He/she specifies the test cases following the test strategies.

He/she ensures that the test environment is set-up correctly.

He/she executes the tests.

He/she ensures the consistency of the test results with the test specification, the device under test and the relevant System release.

He/she reports to the Test Lead or System Validation Technical Project Manager.

• Communication / Network Test service request process, review and analysis.
  
  Analyze customer specification with the product manager and quality PTM, challenge the tests requested and define the final validation plan to build the final offer.
  
  Define the need of specific tools or bench (characterization, reliability...)
  Define also the associated budget.
  
  Planning Write the detailed validation plan and test specification including both OEM validation and also TIer 1 customer requirements (to achieve quality targets)
  Schedule the validation plan and manage the test with the support of laboratory resources (technicians...)
  Responsible for the main relationship with the customer and project team for environmental validations (methods and results) wherever the tests are located (USA, abroad, external lab...)
  Work in parallel with the project team; contribute to correct the design in order to meet product performance.
  
  Manage the configuration and logistics of tested parts
  
  Lead validation FMEA generation for assigned project
  
  General DR's for software, hardware & product design reviews, problem resolution, FMEA analysis.
  
  Manage Manage the planning inside the laboratory and allocate resources (technicians, tools, benches,...)
  Responsible to obtain the specific tools needed for the validation (need specification and follow-up) whenever they are done inside Valeo or external to Valeo Manage the cost of the validation activities
  
  Test Execution Familiarize with working system using bench equipment to enable view on delivered product and to understand customer problems
  
  Carry out all work to comply with Quality Management System and Validation Engineering Processes e.g. ASPICE, ISOTS
  16949
  
  Work with Methods & Tools (M&T) team to develop test environment solutions to enable Design & Process Validation (DV/PV)
  Governance of Test setup and verification of test platforms supported by lab operations technical support
  
  Governance of Test setup of Test script development (using NI LabVIEW / Test Stand) supported by both M&T and lab operations technical support
  
  Governance of test execution as per the specification using lab equipment (using thermal chambers, IPx) supported by lab operations technical support
  
  Encourage a Safety focus dedicated to maintaining high quality standards.
  
  Reporting Report validation status to the project team and management on a regular basis (QRQC, 5mm...)
  Generation of test reports, peer-reviews of data and follow up on approval
  
  Create daily and weekly activity report on project and non project related activities using dashboards made available
  
  Perform problem management role interfacing with customer, allocation of Device Under Test (DUT) failures to appropriate functions and leading weekly review
  
  Participate in lessons learned across the various projects
  
  Efficiency
  
  Contribute to the improvements of the laboratory's tools such as : instruction sheet, development and validation of test environment processes automation
  
  Test Efficiency:
  
  Minimize test cycle times
  
  Provide work instructions to test houses to enable efficient transfer of test equipment
  
  Support Project team with analysis of failure modes
  
  Implement a robust and efficient automated test benches
