Electrical Integration & Test Engineer

Responsibilities

• Own the electrical integration of production equipment, test systems, and workstations across manufacturing lines and development labs
• Lead electrical bring-up, debug, and validation of new and modified production cells and test stations, resolving issues across power, signal, controls, and instrumentation boundaries
• Own end-of-line test systems and development lab test assets, including their electrical hardware, cabling, instrumentation interfaces, and long-term operational reliability
• Design, build, integrate, and maintain electrical test fixtures, cable assemblies, and hardware interfaces used for qualification, validation, and manufacturing
• Define and maintain electrical interfaces between tools, instruments, fixtures, and factory infrastructure, including power distribution, grounding, and signal routing
• Serve as front-line electrical engineering support for the production floor, troubleshooting electrical issues and driving rapid resolution
• Evaluate proposed designs for electrical integration feasibility, providing feedback on connector access, cable routing, test point placement, and debug accessibility
• Evaluate nonconformances and electrical failures to determine root cause and drive corrective action and system improvements
• Drive test readiness for new product introductions, revisions, and production ramps
• Interface with both engineers and technicians to optimize electrical integration, test, and automation workflows

Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in electrical engineering, computer engineering, or a related engineering discipline
• 1+ years of hands-on experience in electrical integration, test, hardware debug, or manufacturing (internships, co-ops, and substantive project experience qualify)
• Experience with electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, and system-level electrical documentation
• Hands-on experience with lab instrumentation (oscilloscopes, multimeters, logic analyzers, power supplies)
• Strong electrical debugging and troubleshooting skills
• Demonstrated engineering intuition, critical thinking, and comfort with ambiguity
• Willingness to work extended hours and weekends as needed

PREFERRED EXPERIENCE

• Experience with optical, RF, or high-speed electrical test equipment (e.g., VNAs, BERTs, optical power meters, high-bandwidth oscilloscopes)
• Experience integrating or maintaining multi-station production test systems or factory automation equipment
• Experience designing electrical test fixtures, probe interfaces, or cable assemblies
• Familiarity with data acquisition systems, instrument control (GPIB, USB, Ethernet), or test automation frameworks
• Scripting or programming experience (e.g., Python, LabVIEW) for instrument control, data collection, or test automation
• Experience with PCB bring-up, board-level debug, or electrical validation workflows
• Familiarity with power distribution, grounding practices, and signal integrity in production environments
• Experience writing test plans, procedures, and providing go/no-go judgment and rationale
• Experience working in Linux environments
• Documentation and configuration management experience in a production environment
