Your Role

The role of Electrical Manufacturing/Test Engineer requires the know-how and ambition to support manufacturing needs for new products. This includes specifying, programming, and deploying equipment for the assembly and testing of our IoT products, interpreting results and telemetry from test processes, and communicating these results to design engineers, manufacturing managers, and other relevant groups. The role is part test design, part project management, and part factory setup and sustaining. 

Responsibilities:

  • Develop, validate, and continuously improve electrical test systems, including bed-of-nails, flashing, and functional test solutions, by defining test architecture, selecting appropriate methods and equipment, and optimizing performance to ensure reliable product verification and manufacturing readiness.
  • Partner with design and engineering teams to define test requirements, review product specifications, and translate functional expectations into executable test strategies in order to support accurate validation and smooth product introduction.
  • Create, document, and qualify test plans, procedures, and acceptance criteria by applying engineering standards, analyzing risk, and verifying repeatability so that test coverage is complete, traceable, and aligned with quality requirements.
  • Coordinate with external vendors in the development of test hardware by communicating technical requirements, reviewing designs, and supporting build and debug activities to ensure delivered solutions meet performance, cost, and timeline expectations.
  • Interface with contract manufacturers, including outside standard working hours when required, by supporting implementation, troubleshooting, and production test readiness to maintain continuity across global manufacturing operations.
  • Analyze production and test data from databases, spreadsheets, and other sources by consolidating information, identifying trends, and investigating failures in order to detect issues early and drive corrective actions.
  • Communicate test results, telemetry findings, and issue analysis to design engineers, manufacturing leaders, and other cross-functional stakeholders by presenting clear data-driven conclusions and recommendations to support informed decision-making and product improvement.
  • Support factory setup, test deployment, and sustaining activities by coordinating equipment introduction, resolving test-related issues, and improving ongoing processes to enable stable, scalable, and efficient manufacturing operations.
  • Operate effectively in a fast-paced manufacturing environment by managing multiple priorities, adapting to evolving business needs, and taking on additional responsibilities as needed to support team growth and organizational objectives.

Skills and Qualifications:

  • Education in electrical engineering, mechatronics or related discipline
  • 6+ years of engineering experience

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
