Responsibilities
- Design, implement, and maintain common electrical test hardware platforms for DAQ, controls, instrumentation, power distribution, networking, and computer-integrated test assets.
- Create and maintain electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, panel layouts, cable designs, bills of materials, assembly instructions, checkout procedures, and operating documentation.
- Develop standardized hardware architectures that allow test engineers to quickly assemble safe, reliable, maintainable, and reusable test systems.
- Participate in the full hardware lifecycle-from requirements and design through procurement, fabrication, integration, commissioning, deployment, maintenance, and improvement.
- Work closely with software automation engineers during design, deployment, integration, checkout, and troubleshooting of standard test assets.
- Coordinate with IT and the test automation engineers to define, image, configure, and maintain computers used in standard test assets.
- Diagnose and resolve issues across electrical hardware, software interfaces, networking, and test infrastructure with resourceful, hands-on problem-solving.
Minimum Qualifications
- Bachelor's degree in electrical, aerospace, mechanical, or related engineering discipline.
- 5+ years of hands-on experience designing, building, integrating, or operating electrical test hardware, laboratory equipment, industrial automation systems, or similar engineering hardware.
- Experience creating and maintaining electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, bills of materials, and assembly documentation.
- Experience with EPLAN or similar electrical design tools.
- Working knowledge of data acquisition, instrumentation, sensors, controls, wiring, power supplies, networking, and electrical system integration.
- Hands-on experience with hardware checkout, commissioning, troubleshooting, and operation in a fast-paced environment.
Preferred Skills And Experience
- 7+ years of hands-on experience designing, building, integrating, or operating electrical test hardware, laboratory equipment, industrial automation systems, or similar engineering hardware.
- Strong EPLAN experience, including project structure, device tagging, terminal blocks, wire numbering, panel layouts, reports, and drawing release workflows.
- Experience designing modular or reusable test hardware platforms rather than one-off test equipment.
- Experience with NI, Beckhoff, ifm, PLCs, real-time control systems, IO-Link devices, Ethernet/IP devices, EtherCAT devices, or other industrial automation hardware.
- Experience designing low-voltage electrical systems, cable harnesses, grounding schemes, interlocks, and general E-stop or safety circuits.
- Experience wiring, integrating, and troubleshooting power supplies, signal conditioning hardware, network switches, DAQ chassis, controllers, remote I/O, and industrial electrical components.
- Mechanical design experience for test hardware, including enclosures, carts, racks, brackets, sheet metal, and serviceable assemblies.
- Experience with Teamcenter, PLM systems, engineering release workflows, technician training, or configuration-controlled hardware documentation.
