- 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 for test automation systems that range from R&D to high-volume manufacturing
- Expert at using 3D CAD design software like Autodesk Inventor, SolidWorks, AutoCAD, ProE, etc
- Ability to read electrical circuits and schematics, navigating PCB layouts and understand manufacturer's product data sheets
- Experience working in the automotive, semiconductor, or aerospace industries
- Experience with electronics testing/probing/harnessing technologies like mass interconnect solutions (VPC), specialty probes (Ingun), etc
- Experience supporting deployment automated test equipment in manufacturing environments
- Hands-on hardware integration experience with automated test equipment
Nice To Have
- Familiarity with vehicle communication protocols (CAN, CANFD, DoIP, Automotive Ethernet, LIN, etc.)
- Experience with automation instrumentation such as programmable power supplies, multiplexers, DMMs, signal analyzers, signal generators, multifunction devices (digital and analog)
