What to Expect
The Low Voltage Hardware Validation Test team is looking to bring on a Sensor Engineering Technician to support Semi test development, execution, documentation, and root cause analysis. A Sensor Engineering Technician will support all aspects of testing from electrical debugging, mechanical fixture design/building, software script development/modification
What You’ll Do
Work alongside Test/Reliability/Design Engineers to validate displays, sensors, and cameras for the Semi program through mechanical and electrical testing
Design, build, and dismantle static fixtures made of T-Slotted aluminum and sometime solid Aluminum or magnesium
Run/document electrical, ingress, and visual checks/data in to validate displays, sensors, and cameras operation through validation/reliability testing milestones
Create and modify python test script that interact with DAQs and Power supplies
What You’ll Bring
Custom harness building experience related to building signal and power cables sizes from 22 gauge to 0 gauge
Ability to manage multiple test priorities and communicate proactively
Performing environmental stress screening (ESS) to identify potential failure modes
Conducting highly accelerated life testing (HALT) and highly accelerated stress screening (HASS) to determine product robustness
Operating and maintaining environmental chambers for thermal, humidity, and vibration testing
Analyzing test data and identifying trends to predict potential failures
Collaborating with engineers to implement design improvements based on reliability test results
(Preferred, not required) Experience building things using SolidWorks, Catia, Altium, Autodesk Inventor. Experience programming in/on/with Linux, PyCharm, Command line, Arduino, DAQs, and power supplies. Experience working with temp, humidity, radar, ambient light, and presser sensors. Experience with Can Bus communication. Experience fabricating things with CNC mills/Lathes, 3D printers, Laser cutter, chop saws, drill presses, electronic/mechanical crimpers. Experience gathering electrical, mechanical, temperature, data with strain gauges, TC, DAQs, DMM, oscilloscope, torque wrench, Micro ohm meter, HI pot, and Pressure Decay leak tester. Has experience running reliability and validation testing with environmental chambers for PCBAs
