The Test Engineer will design, develop, and execute comprehensive test strategies to evaluate the reliability, functionality, interoperability, and operational effectiveness of Counter Small Unmanned Aircraft Systems (C-sUAS) technologies. This position requires expertise in creating operationally relevant test plans, scenarios, procedures, and evaluation criteria focused on emerging UAS threats and C-sUAS capabilities. The Test Engineer will develop realistic test methodologies, identify system deficiencies, and validate system performance against operational requirements and mission objectives. Test results and operational assessments generated by the Test Engineer will used to support capability recommendations, acquisition decisions, and procurement efforts for current and future C-sUAS technologies. As a Test Engineer, your duties will include the following, but are not limited to: * Develop detailed test plans, test procedures, operational scenarios, and evaluation criteria to validate C-sUAS system capabilities and mission effectiveness. * Design and create manual and automated test cases to evaluate C-sUAS hardware, software, sensors, and defeat systems. * Develop and maintain defect tracking processes, issue documentation procedures, and test reporting standards. * Coordinate with developers, engineers, operators, and stakeholders to design test objectives and support system improvements. * Design and support operational test events, demonstrations, and field evaluations for advanced C-sUAS technologies. * Develop data collection methodologies and performance metrics to assess system effectiveness, sensor performance, detection capabilities, and defeat effectiveness. * Develop and maintain accurate test documentation, configuration records, operational checklists, and testing artifacts throughout all phases of evaluation. * Identify improvements to testing methodologies, operational workflows, and evaluation processes to increase efficiency and effectiveness. * Maintain awareness of emerging UAS threats, adversarial tactics, and evolving C-sUAS technologies to ensure testing remains operationally relevant. * Support audits, operational assessments, system certifications, and technical reviews by developing required testing documentation and evaluation products. * Participate in agile development environments by designing rapid evaluation methodologies and iterative testing solutions in support of mission requirements. ## Related Videos - [Accessibility Test Driven Development](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1578-accessibility-test-driven-development) - [Are Classical Automation Frameworks Dead?
