About the role
- Requirements/specifications review.
- Review schematics, data sheets, BOM, As-Built documentation, and other relevant Design documentation.
- Interfacing with SME internally and with our client and parts manufacturer to evaluate Design Reliability.
- Informal testing, to be performed by QDSS, to verify scale of problem and familiarize QDSS staff with DUT standard operations.
- Develop, and present for client approval, a formal testing plan including, but not limited to:
- Development of any needed hardware, test-equipment, software, FPGA designs to support testing.
- Procurement of any test equipment needed for testing.
- Procurement of any 3rd party services (testing houses, lab space, equipment rentals, etc.) needed for testing.
- Design of Experiments (DOE) testing to provide sufficient data and evidence of the current design’s durability and reliability for client to extrapolate expected product lifetime viability.
- Monitoring and recording of specific electrical characteristics of DUT over time.
- Non-destructive inspection of DUT components (such as X-ray).
- Destructive inspection of DUT components (such as de-capping and photographic inspection). Note that some number of DUT will be returned to client in a non-functional condition. This may be due to either planned damage (de-capping) or due to damage occurring in testing.
- If client has available any returned or damaged parts, particularly those that have been in-use at live facilities, some number of those may be requested to go through a similar testing process.
- Test Report Development & Review, to include all recorded data in a “raw” format, as well as the results of any analysis performed, discussions of trends in the data, reports of any non-conformances or issues discovered during testing or post-mortem inspections.
- Adhering to all applicable Client Engineering development and quality processes, procedures, instructions and guidelines.
- Participation in team meetings and planning activities, as required to support programs covered by this work plan.
Requirements
- Bachelor’s degree in aerospace engineering, electrical engineering, systems engineering, or a related technical field.
- Requires technical problem solving, strong hardware design skills, strong software design skills and software testing skills.
- Experience working with DO-160 and/or Mil-STD environmental requirements
- Experience evaluating RTCA Minimum Operational Performance Specification such as DO-385, DO-185 or DO-260C
- Knowledge of common computer languages (C, C++, Python)
- Experience with PCB design (e.g., Altium, OrCAD, etc.), signal analysis and system verification tools
- Ability to interpret and implement system-level requirements into board-level designs.
- Excellent problem-solving and communication skills
- Test Procedure and Test Report writing experience
Benefits
- Full compensation package is based on candidate experience and certifications
