JOB DESCRIPTION
This role will design mechanical test systems for vehicle electronics. You"ll work on developing mechanical solutions for design characterization, validation, and manufacturing.
Responsibilities
⦁ Design modular and reusable mechanical fixtures for testing vehicle electronics.
⦁ This will start with manual bench-top setups and will evolve to fully automated systems for volume production
⦁ Work with cross-functional engineering groups to define mechanical test requirements for electronics and drive design decisions that help with the testability of ECUs.
⦁ Design custom mechanical interfaces to connect to ECUs.
⦁ This can range from pogo-pin connections to bed-of-nails style probing
⦁ Design rack-based test systems that reduce complexity and improve build time when replicating at scale
⦁ Create well documented diagrams, bills of materials, and standard operating procedures for test automation systems
⦁ Develop and release drawings, BOM and specifications.
⦁ Collaborate with internal teams and external vendors during purchasing, station build, integration and final commissioning
⦁ provide technical oversight to vendors for manufacturing of mechanical components and systems
⦁ Work with technicians to communicate requirements and ensure proper implementation
Qualifications
⦁ BS/MS or equivalent work experience in Mechanical Engineering or related fields
⦁ 5+ years of relevant working experience designing modular mechanical hardware for test automation systems that range from R&D to high-volume manufacturing
