## Description

As a Hardware Tester / Test Engineer, you ensure the functionality, quality, and reliability of hardware and systems through your expertise as well as structured testing and experimental setups. You support products from requirements definition through verification, analyze measurement data, and derive well-founded recommendations for action.

You work closely with R&D, Quality, and other interfaces, develop test strategies and automated test procedures. The results are documented in a transparent and traceable manner and serve as a basis for technical decisions and continuous product improvement.

Responsibilities:

 * The Hardware Tester / Test Engineer will be responsible for the execution of hardware and system tests in accordance with test plans

 * Planning, setup, and commissioning of experimental and test benches

 * Programming and maintenance of measurement and test systems (e.g., LabVIEW)

 * Recording, analysis, and evaluation of measurement data (e.g., using DIAdem)

 * Documentation of test results in English

 * Contribution to requirements definition as well as implementation of technical requirements

 * Creation and maintenance of technical documentation (GDP)

 * Stays up to date with emerging technology and methodologies and will recommend and process/design improvements related to improving the development velocity, and quality output of the R&D hardware teams.

 * Build and maintain strong working relationships with project managers, engineers (systems, electrical, mechanical), operations and maintenance teams, and external engineers/vendors.
