Overview

Moog Aircraft Group Wolverhampton is preparing for additional growth over the coming year and are expanding our Test Systems capability. We are seeking a skilled Test Systems Commissioning Technician to join our team. You’ll be embedded in a multi‑disciplinary environment, collaborating across Actuation Engineering, Supply Chain, Operations, and Programmes. Your ability to navigate complexity, resolve issues independently, and deliver under pressure will directly impact the readiness and reliability of Moog’s test infrastructure. You’ll play a pivotal role in delivering bespoke Test Equipment that supports the Qualification and Production Acceptance testing of our world‑class flight control systems — including linear, servo‑controlled, high‑pressure hydraulic actuators. This is a hands‑on, systems‑level role at the heart of Moog’s engineering excellence. You’ll work closely with our Test Systems Design team to integrate, verify, and validate complex machinery comprising mechanical, electrical, electronic, software, and power distribution components.

Responsibilities

• Commission new Test Equipment in line with technical requirements, schedule, and budget expectations.
• Support mechanical and electrical assembly, acting as a key interface between build teams and Design Engineering.
• Lead integration and formal verification testing, resolving non‑conformances and ensuring full requirement coverage.
• Facilitate customer validation and correlation testing activities.
• Annotate part and assembly drawings to reflect ‘as built’ condition and contribute to verification documentation.
• Independently troubleshoot hydraulic, mechanical, and electrical systems using schematics and diagnostic tools.
• Support calibration procedure development and facility readiness (hydraulic/electrical service integration).
• Champion Health & Safety practices throughout all commissioning activities.

Qualifications

• HNC/HND or equivalent in Electronics or Mechanical Engineering.
• Apprenticeship‑trained background (advantageous).
• 5+ years in aerospace, automotive, or other complex engineering environments.
• Proven experience with Test Systems or Test Equipment commissioning.
• Ability to interpret and troubleshoot from electrical and hydraulic schematics.
• Familiarity with tools such as DOORS, Subversion/JIRA, Teamcenter, or NX (a plus, not a must).

What We Offer

• Flexible benefits package and development opportunities to support career progression.
• 33 days annual leave (including bank holidays).
• Private medical insurance, mental health support and financial advice.
• Generous life assurance and company pension contribution (from 6%).
• Employee share options, free onsite parking, EV charging.
• Hybrid working arrangements.
