 * [Senior level only] 5+ years of relevant experience
 * Hands-on experience planning and executing test campaigns - environmental, structural, EMI/EMC, and/or functional.
 * Strong data analysis and failure-analysis skills, with a systems-level view of how a test result maps back to requirements.
 * Comfort with data acquisition, test automation, and scripting (Python, LabVIEW, MATLAB, or similar).
 * Clear technical writing and communication - your procedures and reports need to stand on their own.
 * S. person status required (see below)., * Experience with spacecraft, satellite, or other flight-hardware AI&T.
 * Familiarity with embedded systems, motor/actuator control, or sensor instrumentation.

 * Experience standing up a test lab or test infrastructure from scratch in a startup or small-team environment.
 * Master's degree in engineering.

## Description

* Develop test plans, procedures, and readiness documentation for component, subsystem, and system-level testing, with clear traceability to requirements.
 * Build and maintain test infrastructure - fixtures, data acquisition, automation, and the tooling that makes campaigns repeatable.
 * Execute functional, environmental, and performance tests; collect and analyze data; and document results against pass/fail criteria.
 * Lead anomaly resolution and root-cause investigations and drive corrective actions to closure.
 * Work shoulder-to-shoulder with design, manufacturing, and avionics engineers ensuring optimal production workflow.
 * Serve as a technical point of contact for test activities in design reviews and major test events.
 * Own the test strategy as the program scales toward flight demonstration and first operational systems.
