Familiarity with test equipment error logs, signal analysis, and troubleshooting hardware and software integration problems. Understanding of hardware communication protocols (e.g., SPI, I2C, RS232, Ethernet) to interface with test equipment or devices under test (DUT). Collaborate with network support and infrastructure management teams to optimize connectivity between test systems and manufacturing software systems Proficiency in developing manufacturing process controls to ensure product quality and consistency, including defining key process parameters, implementing statistical process control (SPC) methods, and integrating mistake-proofing (poka-yoke) techniques.
A day in the life Your responsibilities will include identifying and resolving testing issues to keep production on schedule, as well as driving efficiency improvements through automation and process changes. You will collaborate closely with manufacturing, design, thermal and electrical engineering teams to achieve these objectives.
