• Contribute to the design and documentation of hardware solutions for functional test, structural test, ESS, qualification, production testing, and development testing.
• Prepare and maintain engineering documentation such as schematics, wiring diagrams, interface documents, BOMs, cable lists, block diagrams, test setup documents, and release packages.
• Assist in hardware integration, bring-up, debugging, verification, and troubleshooting of ATE systems and subsystems.
• Coordinate with software, mechanical, quality, manufacturing, and project engineering teams to support complete test system development.
• Support component selection, design calculations, part derating considerations, and adherence to customer and internal engineering standards.
• Participate in design reviews, issue tracking, corrective actions, and engineering change implementation.
• Support deployment readiness by assisting with installation documentation, build support, and field issue resolution.
• Assist in MSA activities including measurement chain readiness, calibration coordination, repeatability checks, and basic correlation studies.
• Contribute to electronic test strategy inputs for aerospace products under guidance of senior engineers.
• Support adherence to test process compliance requirements, design control procedures, and aerospace documentation discipline.

Qualifications

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Electronics, Electrical, Instrumentation, Mechatronics, or Aerospace Engineering, or a related discipline.
• 2–6 years of relevant experience in hardware design engineering, ATE design/support, or aerospace electronic test environments.
• Basic to intermediate experience in schematic design, instrumentation integration, interface design, power distribution, and test hardware documentation.
• Exposure to electronic test systems used in functional, structural, qualification, ESS, production, or development testing.
• Understanding of hardware debug, integration, and configuration-controlled documentation practices.
• Ability to work with cross-functional teams and support technical action closure and schedule commitments.
• Good written and verbal communication skills for technical documentation and project coordination.

Preferred Skills

• Exposure to tools such as OrCAD, Altium, Mentor Graphics, Zuken, AutoCAD Electrical, or similar schematic/documentation platforms is an advantage.
• Awareness of PXI/VXI, switching systems, DAQ, signal conditioning, power supplies, relay cards, and instrumentation interfaces.
• Basic understanding of MSA, GR&R, calibration, uncertainty, and repeatability/reproducibility concepts.
• Familiarity with aerospace documentation practices, revision control, and engineering release processes.
• Understanding of EMI/EMC, grounding, shielding, and test hardware safety considerations is desirable.
• Exposure to test process compliance requirements and standard operating procedures is preferred.

Key Competencies

• Strong analytical and troubleshooting capability.
• Attention to detail in design documentation and integration activities.
• Effective coordination and follow-up skills.
• Problem-solving mindset with timely escalation of issues.
• Ownership, accountability, and quality orientation.
