Sensor Engineer

Responsibilities

• Design and implement sensor prototypes for non-destructive testing applications using acoustic, ultrasonic, and other measurement technologies, including the development of associated signal processing algorithms.
• Implement and automate data acquisition, processing and analysis (e.g., using Python scripts).
• Evaluate sensor performance in laboratory and field conditions to enable early customer feedback.
• Contribute to project initiation by defining requirements, architecture, and effort estimates.
• Deliver technical documentation, support, and presentations for internal and external stakeholders.
• Collaborate with mechanical, electrical and software engineers to integrate sensor solutions into larger systems.
• Work closely with global teams to improve products and system capabilities.
• Support intellectual property activities as well as innovation and know-how tracking.
• Perform mechanical and electrical troubleshooting when needed.

Requirements
