Electrical Test Engineer
Intergalactic
SUMMARY
Intergalactic is a team of engineers, technologists, designers, mathematicians, and problem solvers committed to a singular idea: reviving the no-boundaries mentality in aerospace and innovating solutions from deep sea to deep space. We are a team of the nation's best, regardless of where we live.
The AI&T Electrical Test Engineer will lead and mentor test technicians in all aspects of testing the electronics of Intergalactic's aerospace systems and components. Ensuring a high standard of test execution against system requirements, delivering and fielding quality hardware and systems., and additionally aiding the programs on all strategic, contractual, and tactical milestones from program inception to the delivery of contracted intellectual and physical products to the customer.
The Electronics Test Engineer fosters overall system quality by developing and being accountable for both component and system test plans, procedures, and test result analysis. In cooperation with the Program and AI&T Management team, the Electronic Test Engineer will lead program test campaigns. This role is responsible for the technical development and execution of tests as the primary testing point of contact on assigned programs.
AI&T Test engineers will work with and around high-voltage electricity and subsystems.

+ Experience leading and executing system test campaigns that certify systems against DO-160 or MIL-STD-810, MIL-STD-461 and MIL-STD-704
+ Experience developing both component and system-level electronic and software support test equipment.
+ Experience in the use of electronic power supplies, oscilloscopes, function generators, electronics loads, and other standard test equipment
+ Experience working in and maintaining safe electrical and ESD standards.
+ Experience decomposing customer requirements into verification test plans and procedures for both performance and compliance-based requirements
+ Experience directly interfacing with customer test subject matter experts
+ Experience executing tests and debugging test failures, documenting test results and test failures.
+ Worked as part of root cause and analysis teams to resolve test failures.
Travel Requirements
+ Occasional overnight travel, often lasting up to one week, to customer facilities and offsite testing is expected for this position.
+ International travel may be required.
Additional Qualifications
+ Must be 18 years of age or older.
+ Must pass a background check and drug screen upon offer of employment.
+ Must be able to obtain and maintain a passport.
+ Must be able to obtain and maintain security clearance if required by the program.
Expected Hours of Work
Salaried crew members are expected to work a baseline of 40 hours per work week, although a priority is placed on achieving results rather than tracking time. Daily schedules may vary but most employees work between 7 am to 5 pm. Intergalactic follows a 9/80 work week.
