About this role
Design automated test systems used in T&M manufacturing facilities. The role includes PCB/test fixture work, writing production test code for NI products, qualifying instruments for test applications, and analyzing production test data to detect health trends.
Key Responsibilities
- Design or revise custom printed circuit boards for a test fixture
- Develop production test code for next generation of NI products
- Qualify instruments for use in a test application deployed to Manufacturing
- Analyze production test data for trends indicating product/test health
- Stay current with new communication technologies and collaborate to deliver test solutions
Technical Overview
Responsibilities center on automated testing for T&M product assembly stages, including custom printed circuit boards for test fixtures and production test code development. The engineer will qualify instruments for deployment in manufacturing and use programming (LabVIEW/TestStand/Python), data analysis, and hardware/software integration to monitor and improve test health via trend detection.
Ideal Candidate
The ideal candidate is a mid-level Test Engineer with 5+ years of Production Test Engineering experience designing or revising automated test systems. They have hands-on skills with production test code and test fixtures (including custom printed circuit boards) and are familiar with LabVIEW, TestStand, and/or Python, plus production data trend analysis.
