Conduct reviews of design and requirements to identify potential issues early in the development cycle.
Execute hands-on testing in lab and manufacturing-like environments, including setup, configuration, and validation of test equipment and test benches.
Analyze test results, report defects, and work closely with development teams to ensure timely resolution of issues affecting product performance, reliability, and safety.
Participate in root cause analysis and drive corrective actions for identified issues that may span software, firmware, and hardware interactions.
Contribute to process improvements and the adoption of new testing tools and methodologies appropriate for complex industrial products rather than purely transactional systems.

Preferred

Demonstrated experience in developing and implementing automated testing solutions and frameworks.
Experience working with electromechanical systems, HVAC equipment, industrial controls, manufacturing equipment, or construction-related products.
Background in validating software in lab, factory, or field environments rather than exclusively enterprise IT or financial systems.

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
