• Test production and developmental avionics hardware, including instrumentation, actuators, wire harnessing, and engine controllers.
• Develop and document the integration process for avionics hardware onto flight engines.
• Establish tests for avionics components and develop associated test support hardware and processes.
• Troubleshoot issues with existing components and systems; propose and implement solutions.
• Ensure commonality of avionics systems and processes across multiple engine programs.
• Support avionics box builds and dev assemblies

Qualifications:

• Minimum B.S. in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or Computer Science (or similar).
• 2+ years' experience with electrical feedback and control systems.
• Working knowledge of digital and analog electronic circuits.
• Experience troubleshooting electronic systems, from reading electrical schematics to using electrical test equipment to inspect the system.
• Hands on electrical build experience, including harness build and PCBA soldering.
• Ability to manage several tasks at once.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills.

Desired Experience:

• Implementation of automated solutions for environmental testing.
