Job description

  • Develop test software: build LabVIEW UIs/VIs for instrument control and telemetry; author automation scripts in Python and/or Perl; integrate with embedded test code (VxWorks/C).
  • Integrate with flightlike units: interface with embedded single board computers (SBCs) and custom analog/digital I/O for Command & Data Handling (C&DH); support EPS/power switching use cases.
  • Author formal test documentation: Integration & Test Plans, Environmental Test Plans, Acceptance Test Procedures (ATPs), and configurationcontrolled schematics/BOMs.
  • Execute & improve: run test campaigns (functional, environmental), troubleshoot anomalies, drive root cause/corrective actions, and mentor junior engineers.
  • Collaborate crossfunctionally: partner with systems, firmware, manufacturing test, and program management to meet schedule, cost, and technical goals.

Requirements

If you bring strong LabVIEW, C, Python and handson test hardware design experience, we'll train you on Moog's niche tools and power architectures (e.g., Intercept Mozaix, EPS). You do not need every preferred skill to apply; strong candidates typically meet ~80% and show willingness to learn., * 7+ years in aerospace/defense test engineering with handson ownership of EGSE hardware + software + documentation.

  • Proficiency in the following coding languages:
  • LabVIEW - building productiongrade instrument control and operator UIs.
  • C - embedded systems.
  • Python and/or Perl - test automation and data handling.
  • Practical experience selecting/integrating COTS instruments (PSUs, loads, DAQ, scopes) and designing custom test fixtures/cable assemblies.
  • Ability to write clear ATPs/I&T plans and maintain accurate schematics/parts lists.
  • Strong debugging skills across analog/digital interfaces; comfortable reading schematics and interpreting telemetry.
  • U.S. person (due to exportcontrolled work).

Note: While the legacy posting listed 7-10 years, we welcome 5+ years if you demonstrate full EGSE lifecycle ownership and strong crossdisciplinary collaboration.

NicetoHave (We Will Train Where Needed)

  • Familiarity with VxWorks on embedded SBCs.
  • Experience with cPCI SBCs and C&DH architectures.
  • Exposure to EPS backplanes (power switching, solar array/battery management).
  • VHDL/FPGA interface testing.
  • Cable/harness design experience and knowledge of best practices (EMI/EMC, shielding/grounding).
  • Experience with Intercept Mozaix (or similar) for schematic/BOM/document control.
  • Environmental test support (thermalvac, vibe, EMI/EMC).
