Engineer - Electrical Test

PURPOSE The Electrical Test Engineer is responsible for ensuring that all electrical systems, components and assemblies are tested, inspected and verified to meet engineering specifications, regulatory standards and customer requirements prior to delivery.

Working closely with Production, Engineering and Quality teams, the role plays a key part in ensuring electrical integrity, safety, compliance and on-time delivery of fully functional products.

Support test planning and readiness in line with production schedules and project milestones Review and contribute to electrical test plans, procedures and work instructions Execute in-process, system-level and final acceptance testing (FAT) on electrical systems and assemblies Conduct electrical testing including continuity, insulation resistance, functional testing and fault diagnostics Verify electrical installations against schematics, wiring diagrams and technical specifications Perform inspections, fault finding and root cause analysis on electrical systems, ensuring clear reporting of issues Identify, raise and support resolution of non-conformances (NCRs) Ensure all electrical systems meet defined quality and safety standards before progression or Maintain accurate test records, certification packs and electrical compliance documentation Communicate test progress, issues and results to key stakeholders Support continuous improvement initiatives across electrical test and production processes Assist with internal and external audits, ensuring compliance with electrical standards and procedures Maintain, calibrate and ensure safe use of electrical test equipment and instrumentation Ensure adherence to 5S and housekeeping standards within the test environment Support shift-based working where required (including day/night rotation) Promote and comply with Health, Safety and Environmental (HSE) requirements, including electrical safety practices Ensure compliance with all legal, statutory and contractual obligations
