Test Engineer

About the Role

PacSci EMC is seeking a Test Engineer to own the planning coordination execution readiness and documentation of assigned test programs in our Chandler Arizona operation. This role is primarily focused on end-to-end test program ownership rather than hands-on test execution. You will work closely with technicians Design Engineering Program Management customers vendors and outside test laboratories to ensure testing is properly planned documented scheduled executed and reviewed.

The ideal candidate is a mechanically minded engineer with 25 years of experience who brings strong organization communication data-analysis and problem-solving skills and is ready to grow into increasing technical and program ownership. PacSci-specific systems and several specialized processes will be learned through onboarding and on-the-job training.

What Youll Do

• Own assigned test programs from planning through completion coordinating schedules procedures resources test readiness execution support data review documentation and follow-up actions.

• Develop maintain and support Acceptance Test Procedures (ATPs) with exposure to Qualification Test Plans (QTPs) and Qualification Test Reports (QTRs) as applicable.

• Coordinate with test technicians to ensure procedures equipment instrumentation materials and resources are ready for scheduled testing.

• Work cross-functionally with Design Engineering Program Management Quality Manufacturing customers and other stakeholders to resolve test-related issues and maintain program schedules.

• Coordinate testing with external laboratories and vendors including obtaining quotes supporting Statements of Work (SOWs) requisitions and work orders and participating in vendor/customer meetings as needed.

• Analyze test and process data identify trends or anomalies communicate findings and support troubleshooting and corrective actions.

• Support development procurement installation verification and calibration readiness of test equipment and instrumentation.

• Learn and utilize PacSci EMC internal systems and tools including Visual to support test documentation and Engineering Masters for test cards.

• Participate in Process Safety Management (PSM) 5S Continuous Improvement and LEAN activities as applicable.

• Support capital-equipment and facility-improvement initiatives associated with test capabilities as experience and business needs develop.

• Support proposal and estimating activities with test-related labor equipment schedule and external-laboratory inputs.

• Maintain accurate technical documentation and communicate status risks priorities and issues effectively.

• Progressively operate with greater independence as knowledge of PacSci products systems processes and test disciplines develops.

What Were Looking For

• Bachelors degree in Engineering; Mechanical Engineering or another mechanically oriented discipline is preferred. Aerospace Engineering Systems Engineering and other relevant engineering disciplines may also be considered.

• 25 years of relevant engineering experience; test engineering manufacturing aerospace/defense or another structured technical test environment is preferred.

• Demonstrated ability to organize and coordinate technical work manage competing priorities and drive assigned activities to completion.

• Experience analyzing technical engineering manufacturing or test data and communicating conclusions clearly.

• Strong written and verbal communication skills with the ability to work effectively with technicians engineers program teams customers and vendors.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience developing or maintaining ATPs test procedures QTPs QTRs or similar controlled test documentation.

• Aerospace defense energetic-materials automotive safety systems or other highly regulated manufacturing/test experience.

• Experience coordinating external test laboratories suppliers customers or technical vendors.

• Familiarity with Process Safety Management (PSM) LEAN Continuous Improvement or 5S.

• Experience with SolidWorks or another 3D CAD platform.

• Exposure to Microsoft Project Visio Access or similar project/documentation tools.

• Exposure to program cost schedule quoting SPI/CPI or earned-value concepts.

What Success Looks Like

During the first several months you will build knowledge of PacSci EMC products test methods systems and site-specific processes while assuming increasing ownership of assigned programs. Successful engineers in this role become trusted points of contact for their programs keep testing and documentation moving communicate risks early work effectively across functions and develop deeper expertise in test disciplines such as dynamics thermal environmental or functional testing.

Why PacSci EMC

• Join a growing business where engineers gain broad exposure across design testing production failure review customer interaction and product delivery.

• Build meaningful test-program and project-management experience while developing deeper technical expertise.

• Work within a collaborative Test Engineering team that values communication accountability learning ownership and continuous improvement.
