Our client is looking for a Senior Test Engineer to join their team!

​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​Here’s what to expect on a day-to-day basis:

• Responsible for the design and manufacture of Electrical Ground Support Equipment (EGSE) for our client's products. Development of EGSE test systems includes hardware, software, and documentation. A typical Unit Under Test (UUT) includes an embedded single-board computer (SBC) that interfaces with custom analog and digital I/O boards for Command & Data Handling (C&DH) in a PCI form factor. Additionally, Electrical Power System (EPS) boards are included on a custom backplane extension for sub-system power switching and solar array switching/battery charging.
• Hardware: Selection of COTS test instruments where practical and design of custom test ‘boxes’ and cabling as required. Test hardware must be capable of verifying all stated capabilities and contractual design requirements for the UUT.
• Software: Develop VxWorks test code to run on SBC (C programming language). Create National Instruments LabVIEW VIs for COTS instrument control and monitoring, and User Interface (UI) for UUT command and telemetry. Develop PERL scripts to control the execution of VxWorks and LabVIEW code for test automation. Familiarity with VHDL for FPGA programming is a plus.
• Documentation: Create and maintain assembly, schematic, and parts lists for custom test equipment through the client's Broad Reach document control system. Microsoft Visio, Microsoft Excel, and Intercept Mozaix are used for design documentation. Formal Integration and Test Plans, Environmental Test Plans, and Acceptance Test Procedures (customer deliverables) used to document compliance with all customer and design requirements are the responsibility of the Test Engineer.
