This unique position requires proficiency across electrical, RF, mechanical, hydraulic, and pneumatic disciplines, with the ability to transition seamlessly between these functions. You will bridge the gap between systems engineers and the production execution team, guiding the test lifecycle from initial planning through final data evaluation.

Collaboration: Interface with design and analysis teams to define test data requirements. Coordinate personnel and equipment to ensure seamless execution.
Post-Test Analysis: Participate in post-test data evaluations and resolve technical discrepancies.
Technical Proficiency: Ability to work under general direction to develop creative solutions for complex engineering problems.
Communication: Outstanding written and oral communication skills for interfacing with internal stakeholders and external organizations.
Adaptability: Self-motivated and willing to learn additional engineering disciplines as required.
Teamwork: Proven ability to work effectively both independently and within a collaborative team environment.
Flexibility: Willingness to work extended shifts, weekends, and holidays to meet critical program milestones.
Work Environment: This position requires a thorough and detailed approach to work. The candidate must be comfortable in a fast-paced production environment where safety and schedule adherence are top priorities.

Selected Candidate must be able to work multiple shifts such as:

4x10A schedule (Mon-Thurs) 1st or 2nd or 3rd shift

Basic Qualifications:

Bachelor’s in Science, Technology, Engineering or Math (STEM Degree). Minimum of 8 years of related experience with a BS Degree or 6 Years with MS Degree or 4 years with a Ph.D. in STEM
Experience in a system test environment
Must have an active U.S. government Secret or higher clearance (with a background investigation completed within the last 6 years or currently enrolled into Continuous Evaluation)
Must have ability to obtain and maintain Program Access (PAR) within a reasonable period, as determined by the company to meet its business needs
Proficiency with Mechanical or Electrical or Electromechanical Engineering concepts.
Must be able to work multiple shifts depending on program need and have ability and willingness to work non-standard shifts/overtime.
