Sr. Test Engineer

Overview

The Senior Test Engineer will architect and lead development of integrated hardware and software test platforms that generate Electrical Ground Support Equipment (EGSE) for validating flight hardware. You will define and implement validation strategies, establish test architectures and standards, and ensure flight units meet performance, reliability, and mission requirements throughout development and qualification.

Responsibilities

• Lead design and implementation of EGSE systems, including selection of commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) instruments, design of custom test enclosures, and specification of cabling and connectors.
• Develop automated test frameworks and scripts to exercise functional, performance, and reliability requirements for Units Under Test (UUTs).
• Define validation plans, test procedures, and acceptance criteria; execute test campaigns and document results.
• Interface EGSE hardware with UUTs (typical UUT : Client with custom analog / digital I / O boards for C&DH in cPCI form factor; EPS boards on custom backplane for power switching and battery / solar management).
• Collaborate with design, firmware, and systems engineering teams to ensure testability, traceability, and timely defect resolution.
• Design and verify signal integrity and power delivery solutions to support high-speed interfaces and reliable operation.
• Support environmental, EMC / EMI, vibration, thermal-vacuum, and flight-acceptance testing as required.
• Mentor junior engineers and contribute to process improvement and test documentation.
