Electrical Engineer - Manufacturing Test

The role

You will develop hardware, fixtures, and test solutions to ensure products can be built, validated, and shipped at scale. You will work on test strategy, fixture development, production support, and continuous improvement for PCBAs, subsystems, and integrated products.

What you will do

• Support development of functional test coverage for PCBAs, subsystems, and production systems.
• Review schematics, PCB layouts, and manufacturing documentation to define test requirements.
• Partner with design engineers to improve Design-for-Test (DFT) and Design-for-Manufacturability (DFM).
• Participate in engineering validation, production qualification, and end-of-line test activities.
• Design, modify, and support electrical test fixtures for PCBA validation and production testing.
• Collaborate with external fixture vendors to develop and deploy manufacturing test solutions.
• Specify, integrate, and troubleshoot instrumentation including oscilloscopes, DMMs, and power supplies.
• Support board bring-up, hardware validation, and root-cause analysis of electrical issues.
• Drive rapid debug loops when tests fail.
• Generate manufacturing documentation, test procedures, and engineering change requests.

Required qualifications

• Ability to read and understand electrical schematics and PCB layouts.
• Fundamental understanding of analog and digital circuits.
• Familiarity with PCBAs and electronic manufacturing processes.
• Strong troubleshooting and problem-solving skills.
• Ability to work cross-functionally and drive issues to closure.

Nice to have

• Experience designing or debugging simple circuits.
• Experience with oscilloscopes, multimeters, power supplies, and other lab equipment.
• Exposure to manufacturing test fixtures, production testing, or hardware validation.
• Experience working with contract manufacturers, suppliers, or hardware vendors.
• Familiarity with DFM, DFT, NPI, or PCBA manufacturing processes.
• Experience with PCB design tools such as Altium, KiCad, Eagle, or similar.

Benefits

• Competitive compensation (salary and equity)
