What they'll actually do: Set up test systems for hardware-in-the-loop testing, run tests, interpret results, and flag whether issues are firmware, hardware, or spec-related.

You will work closely with firmware, hardware, and systems engineering teams to build and execute hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) test environments, analyze system behavior, and determine whether observed issues stem from hardware, firmware, or system requirements.

This is a practical engineering role that emphasizes problem solving, test execution, and technical analysis over hardware design.

Responsibilities

  • Design, configure, and maintain hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) test setups for electrical systems.
  • Execute validation and verification test plans against product specifications and system requirements.
  • Collect, analyze, and interpret electrical measurements from laboratory test equipment.
  • Use oscilloscopes, power analyzers, multimeters, data acquisition systems, and other laboratory instruments to evaluate system performance.
  • Review engineering specifications and translate requirements into repeatable validation procedures.
  • Investigate unexpected system behavior and determine whether root causes originate from:
    • Firmware
    • Hardware
    • System specifications or requirements
  • Document test procedures, results, defects, and validation reports.
  • Collaborate with firmware, hardware, and systems engineers to resolve issues uncovered during testing.
  • Support compliance and standards-based testing where applicable.
  • Assist with automation of validation workflows using scripting tools when appropriate.
Required Qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or a closely related engineering discipline.
  • Strong understanding of electrical engineering fundamentals.
  • Hands-on laboratory experience working with electrical systems.
  • Experience using electronic test equipment such as:
    • Oscilloscopes
    • Digital multimeters
    • Power supplies
    • Function generators
    • Data acquisition equipment
  • Ability to interpret electrical measurements and troubleshoot system behavior.
  • Comfortable reading and understanding engineering specifications and technical documentation.
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience with Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) testing or similar validation environments.
  • Familiarity with grid-connected power systems, power electronics, or energy systems.
  • Exposure to compliance or certification standards such as IEEE 1547 or similar electrical standards.
  • Basic Python scripting for test automation.
  • Experience working with automated test frameworks.
  • Familiarity with firmware validation or embedded systems.
