Desirable

• Saronic is seeking a Senior Electrical Test Engineer to lead the development and execution of electrical test strategies across our vehicle and subsystem programs
• This role is responsible for architecting and executing comprehensive test plans aligned with the engineering design process, developing automated test equipment (ATE), and partnering cross-functionally to ensure electrical designs are thoroughly validated prior to release and deployment
• Develop and own comprehensive test plans in accordance with the engineering design process (requirements → design → verification → validation → release)
• Translate system and subsystem requirements into structured verification matrices and executable test procedures
• Lead electrical verification efforts at board, subsystem, and system levels
• Design and execute functional, environmental, regression, reliability, and stress testing
• Drive root cause analysis for electrical failures and implement corrective validation strategies
• Ensure traceability between requirements, test cases, and results
• Design, build, and deploy automated test equipment for PCBAs, harnesses, power systems, and integrated assemblies
• Develop automated test scripts and frameworks using tools such as Python, LabVIEW, MATLAB, or similar
• Create scalable test architectures to support engineering validation, production test, and field diagnostics
• Specify instrumentation (oscilloscopes, DAQs, power supplies, loads, environmental chambers, etc.) and integrate into automated systems
• Improve test throughput, repeatability, and data quality through automation and fixture design
• Work closely with electrical, mechanical, firmware, systems, and manufacturing engineers to ensure designs are testable and validated early
• Participate in design reviews (DCR, PDR, CDR etc.) to advocate for testability and verification rigor
• Collaborate with technicians to develop repeatable procedures and provide training where needed
• Partner with manufacturing to transition engineering validation tests into production test processes
• Support field troubleshooting and validation activities as required
• Establish best practices for test documentation, version control, data capture, and reporting
• Drive continuous improvement in verification methodologies and lab infrastructure
• Mentor junior engineers and technicians in structured test development and debugging techniques
• Ensure compliance with relevant industry, safety, and regulatory standards
