Job Description
Project Kuiper is an initiative to launch a constellation of Low Earth Orbit satellites that will provide lowlatency highspeed broadband connectivity to unserved and underserved communities around the world.
As a Project Kuiper Manufacturing Test Engineer you will own the of test campaigns for subassemblies to ensure readiness for satellite integration. You will work with multiple engineering and manufacturing teams to specify test equipment requirements develop and execute test plans to support development and production test initiatives. Your focus will be in optimization of test processes to enable Project Kuiper production ramp plans.
This is a fastpaced intellectually challenging opportunity to work with thought leaders in multiple technology areas. Youll have relentlessly high standards for yourself and everyone you work with and youll be constantly looking for ways to improve. We want individuals who want to reach beyond what is possible today. Everyone on the team needs to be entrepreneurial wear many hats and work in a highly collaborative environment.
Key job responsibilities
* Experience with test automation frameworks like TestStand Robot Framework or similar tools for creating and managing automated test sequences.
* Ability to convert test plans and hardware specifications into automated scripts that execute test cases record results and handle exceptions.
* Experience with designing test cases for functional performance and stress testing in hardware systems.
* Strong debugging skills for identifying issues in both the test scripts and hardware setups.
* 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).
* 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 mistakeproofing (pokayoke) techniques.
Export Control Requirement:
Due to applicable export control laws and regulations candidates must be a U.S. citizen or national U.S. permanent resident (i.e. current Green Card holder) or lawfully admitted into the U.S. as a refugee or granted asylum.
