  • Collaborate with software, firmware, FPGA, and mechanical engineering teams during product development and qualification.
  • Work closely with overseas software developers responsible for automated test scripts and provide technical guidance on hardware-related test issues.
  • Assist in the development and improvement of test fixtures, test procedures, and manufacturing test strategies.
  • Create detailed engineering documentation including test procedures, validation plans, failure analysis reports, and test results.
  • Participate in internal design reviews and provide feedback on electrical design robustness, manufacturability, and testability.
