Test Engineer – Repair Operations

Hewlett Packard Enterprise • Aguadilla, PR

7d • Onsite

About The Position

Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) is seeking a highly motivated Test Engineer to join our Repair Operations organization. In this role, you will design, develop, and sustain test solutions that ensure the quality, reliability, and efficiency of repaired and refurbished products across diverse hardware platforms. You will collaborate closely with repair technicians, manufacturing engineers, and quality to diagnose complex issues, reduce cycle time, and drive continuous improvement through robust test coverage and data-driven decision-making. This role is ideal for a self-starter who thrives in both independent work and cross-functional collaboration. You will build test scripts and frameworks from scratch, even when documentation or guidance is limited, and leverage AI and automation to streamline test workflows, improve fault isolation, and enhance throughput. Your work will directly impact operational efficiency, first-pass yield, and customer satisfaction.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical/Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Manufacturing Engineering, or related field (or equivalent experience).
• Programming proficiency in at least one language used for test automation (e.g., Perl, Python, C#, PHP, or VBA).
• Hands-on experience in repair operations or manufacturing (depot, factory, or service center), including test station setup and instrument control.
• Proven ability to develop test scripts from scratch and formalize processes when documentation is limited.
• Strong troubleshooting skills across hardware/firmware/software boundaries and familiarity with oscilloscopes, power supplies, and other troubleshooting tools.
• Excellent communication, collaboration, and independent execution skills in fast-paced environments.

Nice To Haves

• Experience using AI/ML to improve testing, such as finding issues and optimizing test flow.
• Understanding of manufacturing quality methods like Lean, Six Sigma, and basic statistical tools.
• Familiar with version control and good software practices in test environments.
• Experience with repair processes and product tracking (serialization, traceability, RMA).
• Hands‑on experience with firmware flashing, JTAG/boundary scan, and hardware bring‑up.
• Knowledge of ESD/EHS guidelines and best practices for test fixtures.
• Cloud Architectures
• Cross Domain Knowledge
• Design Thinking
• Development Fundamentals
• DevOps
• Distributed Computing
• Microservices Fluency
• Full Stack Development
• Security-First Mindset
• User Experience (UX)

Responsibilities

• Design, develop, and maintain automated test scripts and frameworks (e.g., Python, LabVIEW, C/C++, or similar) for repair operations and depot environments.
• Create from-scratch test solutions and procedures for new product lines or legacy units when formal guidance is limited.
• Integrate AI/ML-driven diagnostics and automation (e.g., anomaly detection, predictive fault classification, intelligent routing) into test processes to reduce cycle time and improve accuracy.
• Define and execute test plans, acceptance criteria, and coverage strategies for repair, refurbishment, and post-repair verification.
• Troubleshoot complex hardware, firmware, and software issues; perform root-cause analysis and implement corrective actions.
• Partner with manufacturing, repair technicians, and quality teams to standardize test processes, improve first-pass yield, and minimize NFF (No Fault Found) rates.
• Develop and maintain test documentation: procedures, work instructions, test logs, calibration records, bill of test, and change histories.
• Ensure compliance with EHS/ESD standards and apply best practices for test fixturing, calibration, and traceability.
• Manage test equipment lifecycle (selection, setup, calibration, maintenance) and interface with instruments via SCPI/USB/Ethernet, etc.
• Manage test scripts using version control and modern development practices.
• Support NPI to repair transfer by developing repair-ready test strategies and sustaining them over the product lifecycle.
• Lead/participate in kaizen events and 8D problem-solving, documenting actions and measurable outcomes.
• Mentor technicians/engineers on test system usage and best practices; provide on-call support for urgent production issues.
