Automation of Tests LabVIEW Software Engineering Strategies of Testing Teststand

Job description

You know your way around a circuit card. You’ve built automated test systems, you’ve written LabVIEW sequences, and you actually enjoy the problem-solving that comes with it. Here’s the thing, though: most test roles don’t give you much beyond maintaining what’s already there. This one’s different. You’d be joining a well-established team, working across the full development cycle, from concept through to series production. That means test strategy, ITA design, software development, and real influence over how products are built through Design for Test. It’s the kind of role where your technical judgment actually shapes outcomes, not just monitors them. What you’ll be doing: Developing and maintaining automated test systems for circuit card assemblies, writing test strategies and documentation, designing Interchangeable Test Adaptors (mechanical and electrical), and getting involved with continuous improvement and emerging technologies. What they’re looking for: A solid grounding in analogue and digital circuit design, hands-on experience building ATE, and familiarity with LabVIEW and/or TestStand. Boundary Scan or XJTAG exposure is a plus. You’ll need to be a British Citizen or be a dual national with British citizenship, due to security clearance requirements

Requirements
