A Snapshot of Your Day

Siemens Energy is seeking a motivated Test Engineer to support critical test operations in our Power Transformers Test Field. In this role, you’ll help ensure our products meet the highest standards of quality, performance, and operational safety—directly contributing to reliable global energy infrastructure.

You’ll work hands‑on alongside test engineers and technicians, collaborating closely with customers and cross‑functional teams including engineering, production, quality, and project execution. You’ll also play a key role in developing and improving test procedures, solving technical challenges, and promoting a safe, collaborative work environment.

How You’ll Make An Impact

  • Integrate the test team in the execution of test plans for power transformers, ensuring compliance with industry standards and customer specifications.
  • Understand the consequences of not meeting customers and regulatory requirements.
  • Ensure alignment to safety protocols and procedures in all test operations.
  • Proactively act, identifying safety risks and collaborating proposing measures to mitigate them.
  • Develop and implement test procedures, methodologies, and standard processes to enhance test efficiency and product quality.
  • Collaborate with the engineering, production and quality teams to identify, register, communicate and resolve test issues, supporting root cause analysis.
  • Design and oversee the setup of test equipment, fixtures, and instrumentation required for product test.
  • Ensure the maintenance and calibration of test equipment to ensure accuracy and reliability.
  • Actively troubleshoot test systems.
  • Handle the documentation of test results, reports, and statistical analysis to support product development, certification, and quality assurance processes.
  • Propose continuous improvement initiatives in test processes, leveraging new technologies and methodologies to enhance test capabilities and product quality.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams on product and technology development projects, ensuring that test requirements are integrated from the design phase.

What You Bring

  • Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or related field with 5+ years of experience in high‑voltage electrical testing (transformer manufacturing or related).
  • Knowledge of transformer test standards and quality methodologies.
  • Experience with test equipment, data acquisition systems, and troubleshooting.
  • Strong safety mindset, problem‑solving skills, and communication abilities.
  • Flexibility for shift work and occasional international travel.
  • If not already located in Charlotte, NC, the selected candidate must be willing to relocate (relocation assistance provided).
  • Applicants must be legally authorized for employment in the United States without need for current employer-sponsored work authorization. Those candidates with current US work authorization could be considered for a transfer.
