Responsibilities
Execute repeatable, precise test procedures for power modules, converters, and energy storage systems.
Run structural and performance evaluations based on engineering specs and test outlines.
Assemble and service custom test setups, adapting hardware and instrumentation as needed.
Operate lab instruments such as AC/DC power sources, grid simulation hardware, oscilloscopes, and probes.
Maintain the lab workspace, manage tool calibration, and uphold compliance protocols.
Assist in the development of automation scripts or test flows, partnering with system‑level engineers.
Coordinate closely with hardware teams to align on new test methodologies or review results.
Document system setups, test procedures, and results in a structured and traceable format.
Qualifications
Bachelor’s degree in electrical or electronics engineering, or equivalent practical experience.
At least 5 years of relevant experience in high‑power hardware environments, ideally focused on validation or systems test.
