Electronics Test Engineer II

The role

You will execute design verification and validation testing at the component, board, and system level for AMU hardware. You will collaborate with hardware, firmware, and systems engineers to validate designs for multi-megawatt battery systems.

What you will do

• Develop comprehensive test plans, DVP&Rs, and verification protocols for the AMU PCBA and integrated panel assembly components.
• Validate safety-critical and non-safety communication interfaces including CAN-FD, Ethernet, and RS485.
• Execute test setups to verify precision sensing capabilities for voltage, current, and temperature.
• Verify HV contactor control, heater SSR control, and power routing.
• Test Hardware Over-Current Protection, fault loop logic, and Functional Safety.
• Analyze test data and generate detailed reports.
• Collaborate with design engineers to root-cause board or firmware anomalies.
• Contribute to test automation frameworks utilizing Pytest.

Required qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or related field.
• 1+ years of experience in PCBA hardware testing.
• Robust board-level and system-level validation experience.
• Experience in firmware verification, utilizing Pytest or similar unit testing frameworks.
• Comfort with debugging tools, Linux environments, and Test-Driven Development (TDD).
• Hands-on experience with test instrumentation (oscilloscopes, power supplies, data acquisition systems, environmental chambers).
• Hands-on experience with high-voltage/high-current test instrumentation (power supplies, electronic loads).
• Ability to work with test plans, execute verification activities, and communicate findings effectively.
• Understanding of communication protocols (CAN-FD, Ethernet, RS485), power distribution topologies, and functional safety frameworks.
