Systems Integration And Test Engineer

About the role

The Systems Integration and Test Engineer designs, configures, integrates, tests, and documents complex networked communication systems, with a focus on Ethernet networking, VoIP/SIP platforms, and system hardware. This hands-on role owns technical work from requirements review through configuration, verification, troubleshooting, and release, while closely collaborating with engineering, production, quality, and project teams to ensure reliable, high-quality project execution in a dynamic, innovation-driven environment.

Responsibilities

• Configure and validate managed network switches, including VLANs, trunks, access ports, link aggregation, IP addressing, and basic routing parameters.
• Engineer and provision VoIP phones, SIP gateways, PBX interfaces, and related communication devices in accordance with project requirements.
• Perform system integration, bench testing, functional verification, fault isolation, and root-cause troubleshooting prior to equipment deployment.
• Develop formal test plans, procedures, acceptance criteria, test records, and corrective-action documentation to support rigorous system validation.
• Create and maintain configuration baselines, wiring diagrams, interface definitions, bills of material, technical notes, and as-built records.
• Produce and review user manuals, installation instructions, maintenance procedures, and engineering work instructions to support end users and field teams.
• Interpret technical requirements, drawings, specifications, and customer documentation, and identify technical risks, conflicts, and missing information.
• Support electrical and mechanical integration activities, including cable and connector selection, terminations, rack layouts, equipment mounting, labeling, and assembly verification.
• Apply engineering change control and configuration-management practices to hardware, software, drawings, and project records.
• Coordinate with engineering, production, quality, project management, vendors, and customers to resolve technical issues and meet project milestones.
• Develop standardized configurations, reusable test methods, and process improvements that increase quality, repeatability, and efficiency.
• Provide technical support during staging, installation, commissioning, customer acceptance testing, and post-deployment troubleshooting.

Essential Skills

• Strong technical troubleshooting skills and systems-integration aptitude, with the ability to diagnose and resolve complex issues methodically.
• Solid understanding of networking fundamentals and comfort navigating a managed switch or router command-line interface (CLI).
• Practical experience with Ethernet networking, including configuration of managed network switches and basic routing parameters.
• Hands-on experience with VoIP and SIP platforms, including VoIP phones, SIP gateways, PBX interfaces, and related communication devices.
• Strong technical documentation skills, including the ability to develop and execute test procedures, write installation instructions and manuals, and document test results.
• Ability to read and interpret statements of work (SOWs), specifications, drawings, equipment manuals, and customer requirements, and translate them into engineered solutions.
• Capability to identify missing or conflicting requirements and determine what must be designed, configured, tested, and documented.
• Experience developing formal test plans, procedures, acceptance criteria, and corrective-action documentation.
• Ability to perform system integration, bench testing, functional verification, fault isolation, and root-cause troubleshooting.
• Proficiency in applying engineering change control and configuration-management practices to hardware, software, and technical documentation.

Additional Qualifications

• Experience creating and maintaining wiring diagrams, interface definitions, bills of material, technical notes, and as-built records.
• Background supporting electrical and mechanical integration activities, including cable and connector selection, rack layouts, equipment mounting, labeling, and assembly verification.
• Experience producing and reviewing user manuals, installation instructions, maintenance procedures, and engineering work instructions.
• Ability to develop standardized configurations, reusable test methods, and process improvements that enhance quality and efficiency.
• Strong collaboration skills, with experience working alongside engineering, production, quality, project management, vendors, and customers.
• Interest in research and development, with a desire to work on new and emerging technologies rather than legacy or static products.
• Comfort working in a structured environment where documentation, repeatability, and quality are critical to success.

Work Environment

This is a fully onsite, Monday–Friday role in a stable, growth-oriented environment within the marine communications industry.
