We seek a technically high-reaching, proactive, customer focused individual with excellent oral, written, interpersonal, and analytical skills who can thrive in a fast-paced environment. You will prioritize, plan, and implement the environmental acceptance test campaigns for avionics flight hardware in coordination with avionics product development teams and environmental test labs and resources. Your team will conduct acceptance testing campaigns internally and manage acceptance testing at 3rd parties. You will own the acceptance test processes that govern box-level avionics test campaigns for New Glenn.
