• Active security clearance or ability to obtain one.

Responsibilities

• Own production test activities and ensure production test flow.
• Troubleshoot and resolve complex electrical issues found during testing.
• Maintain test capabilities across the manufacturing value stream, from system-level checkouts and acceptance testing to in-process component validation.
• Improve and sustain test systems to increase automation, consistency, test coverage, and efficiency while reducing total cycle time.
• Create test work instructions for technicians in MES.
• Train technicians on equipment use as required.
• Develop a library of common failure modes with troubleshooting guides and diagrams.
• Determine root causes of product failures and recommend corrective actions (RCCA).
• Work with Design, Quality, and Manufacturing Engineering teams on customer returns and failure analysis.
• Provide feedback on early-stage test design for processes supporting new product introduction (NPI).
• Analyze test data, document results, and prepare detailed reports identifying defects and improvement areas.
• Collaborate with design engineers to recommend product enhancements based on test outcomes.
• Optimize test strategies to reduce test time without compromising quality.
• Maintain and calibrate test equipment for precision and reliability.
• Identify opportunities to improve testing processes and methodologies.
