## Description

QDSS is currently seeking a Test Equipment Design Engineer (Test Development Engineer II) to join our team. This is an excellent position for engineers with a background in electrical design and software programming/automation, along with a desire to apply those skills to developing, building, and integrating advanced test platforms and architectures.

You will be joining a project team responsible for the development of test solutions and architectures for various programs for our client. Typical test development applications include analog/digital, RF, High Power, and embedded software/firmware design activities. Test architectures include a blend of customized and COTS Automatic Test Equipment (ATE), along with custom electro-mechanical holding fixtures and associated interface cabling and harnessing.

Engineers in this role will also have exposure to the full lifecycle development process - from the requirements definition phase of the test solution design process through the verification and final system sell-off in a production facility or field/depot environment.

This role is 100% onsite in Tewksbury, MA

What You Will Do

· Develop test hardware, software, and/or firmware, from requirements definition through deployment at manufacturing or customer facilities. These test capabilities may span multiple disciplines (Power, RF, Analog, Digital)

· Actively identify test readiness issues and optimizations throughout the development lifecycle.

· Understand and meet established project budget, schedule, and performance commitments

· Guide mechanical engineering and/or suppliers through test adapter design activities, with moderate support from senior engineers.

· Work effectively within a team, or function as an individual contributor as needed, working autonomously with limited supervision

· Engage in personal technical growth

· Prepare and clearly present your work product at project status meetings
