The engineer will work hands-on in a world-class EMI/EMC test facility, supporting compliance testing to industry standards including MIL-STD-461 and DO-160. This role includes test execution, test equipment stewardship, documentation and software support, and providing technical guidance to test technicians and engineering partners. The ideal candidate brings prior EMI test lab experience and will contribute immediately by maintaining daily lab readiness, serving as a subject-matter expert for EMI test equipment and troubleshooting, managing test equipment and configuration documentation, updating EMI procedures and methods, training technicians, and supporting advanced capabilities such as reverberation chambers, lightning generator care, aircraft system level certification, method development, and specialized, tailored test setups. EMI engineers thrive here because they have the support of deep subject-matter expertise, the autonomy to innovate, and the opportunity to directly influence product readiness for both commercial and military platforms. If you're passionate about solving complex EMI challenges, leading in a collaborative engineering environment, and driving the evolution of a top-tier test lab, this role will give you the tools, resources, and opportunity for impact you're looking for. What You Will Do: In this EMC/EMI Test Engineer role, you will support the following types of activities: * Maintain daily EMI lab organization, equipment readiness, and consumable levels. * Support test chamber and equipment calibrations, facility setup, and cross-lab technical coordination. * Serve as subject-matter expert (SME) for EMI test equipment, troubleshooting, test setups, and best-practice methodology. * Diagnose and resolve issues related to test hardware, test configurations, instrumentation, and test software. * Manage test lab's equipment needs, post-calibration tasks, and coordination across inter-organizational services. * Research and design new test capabilities while maintaining and upgrading existing capabilities. * Create and maintain equipment configuration files and test profiles. * Update EMI procedures, datasheets, and test methods to align with current industry standards. * Train and evaluate technicians; maintain required competency and audit-ready records. * Prepare and coordinate EMI hardware evaluation testing ## Related Videos - [More efficient software for more efficient microchips](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1164-more-efficient-software-for-more-efficient-microchips) - [Data Mining Accessibility](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/802-data-mining-accessibility) - [10M Data Records Lost, Underwater Computing, and Psychedelic Fish - Matthias Geniar](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1908-10m-data-records-lost-underwater-computing-and-psychedelic-fish-matthias-geniar) - [Building a hypercar from scratch](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/607-building-a-hypercar-from-scratch) - [Fast, Confident, and Wrong: When AI Fails at Accessibility](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100030-fast-confident-and-wrong-when-ai-fails-at-accessibility) - [Develop on Windows, Deploy on Red Hat Enterprise Linux](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1600-develop-on-windows-deploy-on-red-hat-enterprise-linux) ## Related Articles - [Fully Remote Software Engineer Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/447-fully-remote-software-engineer-jobs) - [Should senior developers refuse interview coding challenges?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/29-should-senior-developers-refuse-interview-coding-challenges) - [Where To Find Software Engineering Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/396-where-to-find-software-engineering-jobs) - [Find a Developer Job: 12 Best Job Sites For Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/165-find-a-developer-job-12-best-job-sites-for-developers) - [Where to Find Entry-Level Software Engineering Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/397-where-to-find-entry-level-software-engineering-jobs) - [What’s the Difference between a Junior, Mid, and Senior Developer?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/238-what-s-the-difference-between-a-junior-mid-and-senior-developer)
