Senior Manufacturing Test Engineer

What you'll do:
  • Architect & Optimize Test Coverage: Assess manufacturing test coverage, identify quality risks, and design strategic plans for upstream, in-line test stations to significantly boost end-of-line first-pass yields.
  • Develop Automated Test Infrastructure: Design and build automated test stations by pairing mechatronics expertise with Python-based automation to create scalable, reliable testing infrastructure for complex robotic systems.
  • Manage Manufacturing Data Systems: Define data collection requirements and implement robust data management solutions to track testing metrics, support statistical process control, and drive continuous quality improvement.
  • Drive Quality & System Bring-up: Own end-of-line testing operations and system bring-up procedures, utilizing root cause analysis and failure mode identification to resolve quality issues alongside cross-functional engineering teams.
Qualifications
  • Have proven experience with automated test station design, Python programming for test automation, mechatronics development, and hardware test frameworks (e.g., Python, LabVIEW).
  • Understand end-of-line testing processes, system bring-up procedures, manufacturing data systems, statistical process control, and data-driven quality methodologies for complex electro-mechanical systems or robotics.
  • Demonstrate openness, inquisitiveness, constant ambition, and a willingness to embrace uncertainty, recognize mistakes, and pivot quickly.
  • Have 5+ years of experience in manufacturing test engineering, ideally with complex electro-mechanical systems, robotics, or warehouse automation equipment in production environments.
  • Excel at cross-functional collaboration with mechanical, electrical, firmware, and software engineering teams to ensure manufacturing readiness and effectively communicate technical findings.
