- Prepare hardware, instrumentation, facility setups, and DAQ configurations prior to test campaigns.
- Lead execution of Vibration, TVAC, Thermal, and EMC/EMI tests.
- Supervise test technicians; ensure procedural discipline and configuration control.
- Analyze test data and generate qualification/acceptance reports.
- Interface with Systems Engineering, AIT, QA, and external vendors on environmental test matters.
- Satellite Environmental test engineering experience (Vibration, TVAC, Thermal, EMC/EMI)
- Ability to conduct feasibility assessments & long-term test planning
- Strong knowledge of instrumentation & DAQ systems
- Ability to write SOPs, process docs, and procedures
- Experience with test standards (GEVS, MIL-STD-1540, ECSS, etc.)
- Strong analytical skills for test data interpretation
