## Description

The Test Engineer designs, develops, integrates, maintains, troubleshoots, and modernizes production test equipment, ranging from manual fixtures to complex automated test systems. These systems support testing of hybrid microelectronic components, circuit card assemblies, and avionics equipment. The role combines hands-on electronics troubleshooting, test software development, instrumentation, and system-level problem solving to sustain reliable manufacturing operations and deliver new testing capabilities. Success requires technical ownership, timely completion of assigned deliverables, proactive communication, and effective collaboration across engineering and manufacturing teams., * Maintain, troubleshoot, and repair production test equipment; diagnose root causes, verify corrective actions, and minimize downtime and repeat failures. Using schematics and instruments (oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, DMMs, and power supplies) to isolate faults, validate repairs, and confirm performance.

 * Develop, modify, and optimize automated test software using Visual Basic, C++, C# or other applicable languages, while creating and maintaining Cadence OrCAD schematics and integrating hardware/software changes to ensure accurate, reliable, and repeatable test system performance.
 * Troubleshoot CAN, I2C, GPIB, RS485, RS232, and MIL-STD-1553 interfaces to maintain reliable communication with units under test.
 * Develop, implement, and troubleshoot JTAG/boundary-scan tests to improve fault isolation, detect assembly defects, and maintain appropriate coverage.
 * Create and maintain test procedures, validation records, and maintenance documentation to ensure consistent operation and effective troubleshooting.
 * Plan and own assigned work from requirements through verification and closeout; meet milestones, identify risks early, and communicate delays and resource needs.
 * Collaborate with Test, Product, and Manufacturing Engineering, Quality, Operations, and suppliers to resolve issues, share expertise, and implement solutions.
 * Support and document qualification and certification testing to demonstrate compliance with applicable product and customer requirements.
