- Install and configure WebCTRL, controller firmware, network connections, and system databases to support requested test environments.
- Verify wiring, controller communications, input/output operation, and basic system readiness before handing test rigs over to developers and T&I engineers.
- Troubleshoot test-rig hardware, wiring, and connectivity issues; help engineering teams reproduce field configurations and reported problems.
- Maintain wiring diagrams, equipment inventories, configuration records, and setup instructions so test systems can be reused and restored consistently.
- Coordinate test-rig requirements, equipment availability, build priorities, and readiness with developers and T&I engineers.
- Maintain an organized lab and follow electrical safety, equipment-handling, and electrostatic discharge procedures; perform only work covered by training and authorization.
