FORMAL JOB DESCRIPTION

Position Overview: We are seeking a skilled Hardware Test Engineer with a strong background in developing automated test systems for electronic manufacturing assembly environments. The ideal candidate will be a hardware-oriented professional with a solid grasp of electronics and some proficiency in software development, particularly in C# and LabVIEW.

Day-to-Day Responsibilities:

• Develop and implement automated test systems using Windows C# .NET and LabVIEW.
• Focus on the hardware aspect of test systems, including creating schematics with ORCAD and Solidworks.
• Connect and integrate various components into the test systems.
• Work on test stations, utilizing the NI (pixie system) to incorporate modules for different systems.
• Write and adapt code for customizable fixtures.
• Assist in creating schematics for test system bases, ordering parts, and assembling the base.
• Design, build, and test hardware components.
• Develop validation test plans and assist in their execution.
• Design tests for hardware engineers on the manufacturing floor.

Qualifications:

Must-Haves:

• 3-5 years of experience in a related field; candidates must be able to hit the ground running as there is no time for training.
• Proficiency in hardware/electronic design, particularly with sensors.
• Experience with system schematics (ORCAD, SolidWorks, AutoCAD, etc.).
