About The Position

The Engineer, Test Development designs, develops and implements automatic test equipment and test programs for product testing and design verification which ensure robust and high quality assembled products in manufacturing. The Engineer, Test Development may specialize in many areas but are generally categorized into Structural (verification of an assembly process by testing each of its smaller elements and their interconnects) and Functional (verification that a design will perform its main purpose). Activities include (but are not limited to) the following: Develops and executes assembly/test strategy for new products including design for manufacture and test analysis and feedback. Develops test processes, test fixtures and specialized tools to automate test development. Design and develop test solutions including both software and hardware elements. Involvement in all areas of the test development process, including procurement, software development, hardware integration, system integration, qualification and installation support for manufacturing. Implements production systems to ensure maximum utilization of critical resources, maximum throughput, minimum cost and capacity growth. Integrate tools and code developed by other internal groups or external customers. Debug of solutions using design of experiments, tools, and failure analysis methodologies. Project leadership, including management of (and communication with) team members, suppliers and customers. Collaborate with a highly experienced engineering team to review and provide input on development designs. Apply a continuous improvement mindset to all aspects of the development process. Travel and global site support.
