Engineering Test Technician

About the Role

The role involves mechanical set‑up of superchargers on test stands using various fixtures, operating test equipment through control software such as iTest and National Instruments, and collecting test data with instruments like thermocouples, flowmeters, and pressure transducers. Additionally, the incumbent assists with mechanical teardown and failure analysis of tested assemblies, and supports prototype assembly and sample builds. Precision tools—including dial indicators, micrometers, and coordinate measuring machines—are employed to ensure dimensional accuracy, while the technician provides support across multiple test‑lab areas as required. All activities adhere to EHS, material‑handling, and quality‑control procedures such as LOTO and inventory management, with a focus on continuous improvement in quality, performance, cost, and standardization. • Set up superchargers on test stands using fixtures. • Operate test equipment via iTest and National Instruments software. • Record and analyze test data using thermocouples, flowmeters, and pressure transducers. • Perform mechanical teardown and failure analysis of assemblies. • Assist in prototype assembly and sample build projects. • Use precision tools such as dial indicators, micrometers, and CMMs for measurements. • Provide cross‑lab support as needed. • Follow EHS, LOTO, material handling, and quality control procedures. • Drive continuous improvement in quality, performance, cost, and standardization.
