Experience developing test specifications and test systems for solar or renewable energy applications.
Hands-on fabrication and integration experience for test fixtures, test kits, harnesses and other types of test peripherals.
Experience with developing graphical user interfaces, test equipment abstraction layers, test sequences, and test & manufacturing data analysis tools.
Responsibilities
Work closely with hardware design engineers to develop electrical functional tests to help bring-up and debug prototype designs and systems.
Perform Design for Test and feedback those results to hardware design engineers to ensure our products can meet functional test requirements.
Create test specifications for circuit board assemblies, sub-system assemblies, and final assemblies.
Architecture test systems such as selecting appropriate fixture vendor for fabrication, and design the appropriate electronics necessary to meet test requirements.
Write the software necessary to control and automate the test equipment.
Write the software necessary to perform manufacturing tests per test requirements.
Integrate, checkout, and validate test equipment for transfer to manufacturing partners.
Produce all necessary technical documentation such as wiring diagrams and assembly drawings for those test systems to be released into our PLM system.
Have the opportunity to learn about and develop tests for printed circuit board assemblies with relay controls, power electronics & metering, mixed analog and digital design, sensors, and various communication protocols.
