Full Job Description

High-Level Summary (Website)

The Electrical Test Engineer designs, develops, and executes complex test solutions for embedded electronic systems. This role combines hands-on electrical engineering, embedded systems expertise, and advanced test automation to generate high-quality data that informs product development, verification, qualification, and mission assurance decisions. The ideal candidate is equally comfortable debugging hardware on a lab bench, developing automated test software, and designing instrumentation systems capable of capturing everything from low-speed sensor data to high-speed analog events.

Preferred Requirements:

Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field.
3+ years of experience in electrical test, embedded systems, hardware validation, or related engineering roles.
Proficiency with serial communication protocols such as SPI, I2C, UART, CAN, Ethernet, USB, and RS-422/485.
Experience programming and debugging microcontrollers, processors, or FPGA-based systems.
Strong scripting and software development skills, particularly Python.
Ability to read schematics, understand PCB layouts, and perform board-level troubleshooting.

Structured Description

Position Overview

The Electrical Test Engineer is responsible for developing and executing test programs for embedded electronics, avionics, and complex hardware systems. This role requires deep familiarity with laboratory instrumentation, embedded hardware and software, automated data acquisition, and electrical troubleshooting. The engineer will work closely with hardware, software, and systems teams to verify performance, investigate failures, and produce reliable, actionable test data.

Key Responsibilities

Design, build, and maintain electrical test systems for development, qualification, production, and research activities.
Develop automated test software and data acquisition tools using languages such as Python, C/C++, LabVIEW, MATLAB, or similar.
Operate and automate laboratory equipment including oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, logic analyzers, power supplies, electronic loads, source measurement units, vector network analyzers, signal generators, and environmental test equipment.
Configure and execute tests on embedded systems, microcontrollers, FPGAs, communication interfaces, and power electronics.
Develop custom test fixtures, instrumentation interfaces, and hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) environments.
Capture, process, and analyze electrical signals ranging from low-speed telemetry to high-speed analog and digital events.
Debug hardware, firmware, and system-level issues using industry-standard diagnostic techniques.
Develop scripts and software for instrument control, data logging, automated reporting, and test execution.
Support verification and validation activities, including requirements-based testing and qualification testing.
Create test procedures, documentation, reports, and engineering analyses.
Collaborate with hardware, software, systems, and mission assurance engineers to define test objectives and success criteria.
Maintain laboratory equipment, calibration records, and test infrastructure.

Desired Technical Skills

Strong understanding of analog and digital circuit operation.
Experience with embedded systems development and debugging.
Proficiency with serial communication protocols such as SPI, I2C, UART, CAN, Ethernet, USB, and RS-422/485.
Experience programming and debugging microcontrollers, processors, or FPGA-based systems.
Strong scripting and software development skills, particularly Python.
Experience automating laboratory equipment using SCPI, VISA, Ethernet, USB, GPIB, or serial interfaces.
Ability to acquire and analyze high-speed analog and digital data.
Familiarity with signal integrity, power integrity, timing analysis, and noise troubleshooting.
Experience developing custom data acquisition systems and test software.
Ability to read schematics, understand PCB layouts, and perform board-level troubleshooting.
Experience with Linux and embedded operating systems.

Preferred Qualifications

Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field.
3+ years of experience in electrical test, embedded systems, hardware validation, or related engineering roles.
Experience with aerospace, defense, automotive, industrial, or other high-reliability electronic systems.
Experience with environmental, reliability, radiation, EMI/EMC, or qualification testing.
Familiarity with version control systems such as Git.
Experience working with requirements management, issue tracking, and documentation systems.

Additional Requirements

This is an on-site role based in the Los Angeles metropolitan area.
Occasional travel may be required to customer sites or test facilities.
