Responsibilities

• Develop, maintain, and execute automated test scripts and sequences for Design Verification Testing (DVT) of liquid cooling systems.
• Design and configure data acquisition (DAQ) systems, including sensor integration, signal conditioning, and data logging pipelines.
• Build and refine software tools for real-time monitoring, alarming, and visualization of test system performance.
• Develop simulation and plant models, using tools such as MATLAB/Simulink, Python, or Modelica, to support virtual validation and test planning.
• Create and maintain test automation frameworks that improve test repeatability, throughput, and coverage.
• Integrate controls systems and PLC logic into test setups, and support commissioning and troubleshooting of automated test stations.
• Collect, verify, and analyze test data using scripted workflows; automate report generation and data post-processing.
• Collaborate with mechanical, electrical, and controls engineers to define test requirements and translate them into automated procedures.
• Support Factory Witness Testing (FWT) by developing automated test sequences and ensuring systems meet defined test conditions.
• Identify and troubleshoot issues related to test software, DAQ configurations, instrumentation, and control system interfaces.
• Support root-cause investigations for test failures using data-driven analysis and diagnostic tools.
• Develop and maintain version-controlled test procedure documentation and software repositories.
• Identify opportunities to improve test efficiency, data quality, and lab processes through automation and software tools.
• Maintain organization and cleanliness of lab spaces and test areas using 5S practices.
