• Design and implement comprehensive special test equipment, test fixtures, test plans, and test procedures for prototype, qualification, and acceptance testing of electronic assemblies.
• Drive test strategy development and execution throughout the complete lifecycle of electronics development: requirements definition, architectural design, detailed design and analysis, manufacturing, test, integration, and post-delivery support.
• Author and maintain test engineering documentation, including test plans, test procedures, test logs, test records, and comprehensive test summary reports in accordance with program requirements.
• Develop scripts (python or ruby) to automate the execution of test through custom/COTS hardware and software.
• Provide technical oversight and mentorship to technicians and engineers, coordinating activities across multidisciplinary teams to predict and meet schedules and resolve technical disconnects.
• Support program milestones such as preliminary design reviews (PDR), critical design reviews (CDR), and customer acceptance reviews through clear presentation of test results and technical issues.
• Maintain a regular and predictable work schedule.
• Establish and maintain effective working relationships within the department, the Strategic Business Units, Strategic Capabilities Units and the Company. Interact appropriately with others in order to maintain a positive and productive work environment.
• Perform other duties as necessary.

Required Education, Experience, & Skills

• BS degree or higher in Engineering or a related technical field is required plus 4 or more years related experience.
• Each higher-level degree, i.e., Master's Degree or Ph.D., may substitute for two years of experience. Related technical experience may be considered in lieu of education. Degree must be from a university, college, or school which is accredited by an agency recognized by the US Secretary of Education, US Department of Education.
• Testing, troubleshooting, and anomaly resolution of electronic circuits and a demonstrated ability to respond to anomalies found during test and to make recommendations for corrective actions.
• 3 years of experience in the complete lifecycle of electronics development: requirements definition, architectural design, detailed design and analysis, manufacturing, test, integration, and post-delivery support.
• Proficient in scripting languages like Python or Ruby
• Proven expertise in qualification testing of electronic systems for aerospace or defense applications operating in harsh or mission-critical environments.
• Solid understanding of hardware/software/firmware integration and verification techniques at the board and box level.
• Ability to coordinate activities of a small team, predict and meet schedules, resolve technical disconnects, and provide leadership on test engineering efforts.
• Communication skills are essential, including the ability to understand the customer's needs and provide clear communication of proposed solutions to both management and the customer.
• Planning and organization skills with attention to detail in maintaining test documentation and engineering records.
