Electronic Test Engineer

The job of the Test engineer is to develop test requirements and test solutions to ensure high quality products are developed and manufactured. The applicant requires a strong electronics background and must be competent in fault finding complex electronic assemblies to component level. A methodical and structured approach to problem solving is required. We require an applicant who has good knowledge in the fundamentals of analogue, digital, power and embedded circuits.

• Work with different engineering disciplines to create robust requirements to maximise PCB Assembly test coverage.
• Work with different engineering disciplines to create robust requirements to prove designs meet customer requirements.
• Create test equipment to support verification testing and production testing.
• Create hardware and software solutions to deliver test solutions to a budget and timescale.
• Conduct test plans and produce written reports summarising if the PASS/FAIL criteria has been met.
• Create documentation to support manual testing of PCB assemblies and create documentation to support the introduction and verification of bespoke equipment designed by third party companies.
• Work closely with production to understand emerging issues and frame problems which need support from other engineering disciplines.

Key Responsibilities
