Sr. Manufacturing Test Engineer - Vision Detection

In this position, you will:

0.Gather and format requirements directly from customers without assistance from others.  Review and provide proper feedback about the requirements.

0.Create and review innovative HW/SW testing architectures and designs for challenging problems without need for peer guidance or supervision.  This includes breaking the original requirements down into the proper high level and mid range architecture and then creating detailed design notes from the results.

0.Perform advanced analysis and make recommendations and design decisions based on results with minimal assistance from others. Review the design calculations of others to ensure proper application of design techniques.

0.Implement code using advanced usage of Labview development practices and tools. Solve most tool suite set up problems. Solve integration issues that involve multiple code modules, code bases, and/or multiple developers. Critically review others’ code.

0.Perform advanced unit, integration, and systems verification and validation testing using HW/SW tools. Review others testing and suggest additional test cases.

0.Employ advanced troubleshooting strategies; quickly determine root cause with limited support from others and provide support in troubleshooting.

0.Review documentation produced during the Product Development Lifecycle that is generated by other engineering groups and verifies this documentation is sufficient for product design. Generate support documents as needed. 

0.Work closely with other project team members as needed to ensure the final combined product has compatible software, electronic hardware, and mechanical hardware which functions properly together and performs at levels specified in the product specifications.

0.Provide technical guidance to other test team members and lead large test projects requiring more than one engineer, with minimal support from a supervisor.

0.Travel as needed to accomplish the tasks required of this position, including meeting with customers to generate and/or revise concepts and product requirements, installing and testing prototypes, and troubleshooting and correcting improper operation of products designed.
