Job description

Responsibilities

Designs, develops, and implements testing methods and equipment. Plans and arranges the labor, schedules, and equipment required for testing and evaluating standard and special devices. Provides test area with parameters for sample testing and specifies tests to be performed. Compiles data and defines changes required in testing equipment, testing procedures, manufacturing processes, or new testing requirements. Responsible for testing all customer samples and for special tests that cannot be performed in the test area.

Desired Experience Profile

Manufacturing Test Engineering and Test Application Development LabVIEW, TestStand, MATLAB, and instrument integration Test methodology development, measurement system analysis (MSA), Gauge R&R, and uncertainty analysis Development of manufacturing test limits, guard bands, and validation strategies Requirements definition, URS/SRS development, verification, and validation Domain Expertise LED emitter characterization and optical measurement systems Spectroscopy and spectrometer integration Optical sensor technologies and photonics-based measurement systems Understanding of factors affecting optical measurements, including temperature, drive current, fixturing, alignment, and environmental conditions Statistical analysis of measurement variation, repeatability, reproducibility, and yield performance Experience translating R&D laboratory measurement methods into robust high-volume manufacturing test solutions.

Ideal Candidate

An engineer with a strong combination of manufacturing test development expertise and optical measurement knowledge, including LED emitters, spectroscopy, sensor technology, signal processing, and measurement uncertainty, who can bridge the gap between R&D concepts and production-ready manufacturing test systems. Direct optical experience would be valuable, but a strong manufacturing Test/Application Engineer with measurement-system development experience could onboard with technical guidance from our internal sensor expert and product experts.
