Position Summary:

The Senior Test Engineer is responsible for executing verification and validation testing for vehicle DC fast charging components and charging systems. This role ensures hardware and software meet defined performance, reliability, and compliance requirements prior to product release.

The role spans development and validation testing at both component and system levels, including displays, low-voltage electronics, and three-phase high-voltage power electronics.

The Senior Test Engineer owns the end-to-end execution of component lifecycle testing — from defining test equipment and building test infrastructure to executing test campaigns, analyzing data, and reporting results. This role plays a critical part in ensuring product quality and deployment readiness. The role requires strong debugging instincts, curiosity, and the ability to translate ambiguous test failures into actionable engineering insight.

This is a highly hands-on role requiring significant laboratory work, hardware integration, and development of automated and manual test systems.

Responsibilities:

• Execute verification and validation testing at component, subsystem, and system levels.
• Implement test cases derived from system validation plans in collaboration with Validation Engineers.
• Design and deploy test stages including hardware setup, instrumentation, and data acquisition systems.
• Configure and operate test equipment including power supplies, electronic loads, oscilloscopes, and environmental chambers.
• Design and fabricate test fixtures and automated or manual test setups.
• Develop and maintain automated test scripts and data collection tools.
• Execute environmental, durability, electrical, and functional test campaigns.
• Analyze test results and conduct post-test reviews to communicate findings and recommendations.
• Instrument systems to capture electrical, thermal, and mechanical measurements.
• Manage test assets including hardware configuration, equipment calibration, software versions, and test documentation.
• Support root cause investigations and failure analysis during test campaigns.
• Collaborate with design, reliability, manufacturing, and supplier teams to resolve issues and improve system performance.
• Provide technical guidance to technicians supporting test execution.
• Deploy and maintain electrical integration test benches for evaluation of motors, pumps, cables, and connector systems.

Qualifications:

• Typically requires a minimum of 5 years of related experience with a Bachelor’s degree; or 3 years and a Master’s degree; or a PhD without experience; or equivalent work experience.

Desired Skills:

• Experience developing and executing structured test protocols.
• Hands-on experience testing hardware and software from component to system levels.
• Strong capability in hardware test setup, execution, and error-proofing.
• Proficiency with lab instrumentation including power supplies, electronic loads, oscilloscopes, function generators, and DAQ systems.
• Experience with SCPI or similar interfaces for automated test control.
• Programming experience in Python, SQL, or similar tools for automation, data analysis, and visualization.
• Experience designing test fixtures and selecting appropriate test equipment.
• Strong documentation and reporting skills.
• Excellent written and verbal communication.
• Willingness to travel for test integration, commissioning, or supplier support
