Regular Test Engineer

Project Description : The System Test Engineer ensures the elicitation of the requirements/KPIs, the test coverage of the System and System Architecture Requirements and the quality of test cases along with the Test Plans. He/she specifies the test cases following the test strategies. He/she ensures that the test environment is set up correctly. He/she executes the tests. He/she ensures the consistency of the test results with the test specification, the device under test, and the relevant System release. He/she reports to the Test Lead or System Validation Technical Project Manager. Responsibilities : Communication / Network Test service request process, review and analysis. Analyze customer specifications with the product manager and quality PTM, challenge the tests requested, and define the final validation plan to build the final offer. Define the need for specific tools or bench (characterization, reliability...) Also define the associated budget. Planning Write the detailed validation plan and test specification, including both OEM validation and also Tier 1 customer requirements (to achieve quality targets) Schedule the validation plan and manage the test with the support of laboratory resources (technicians...) Responsible for the main relationship with the customer and project team for environmental validations (methods and results) wherever the tests are located (USA, abroad, external lab...) Work in parallel with the project team; contribute to correcting the design in order to meet product performance. Manage the configuration and logistics of tested parts Lead validation FMEA generation for assigned project General DRs for software, hardware & product design reviews, problem resolution, and FMEA analysis. Manage Manage the planning inside the laboratory and allocate resources (technicians, tools, benches...). Responsible for obtaining the specific tools needed for the validation (need specification and follow-up) whenever they are done inside Valeo or external to Valeo Manage the cost of the validation activities Test Execution Familiarize with the working system using bench equipment to enable view on delivered product and to understand customer problems Carry out all work to comply with Quality Management System and Validation Engineering Processes e.g. ASPICE, ISOTS16949 Work with Methods & Tools (M&T) team to develop test environment solutions to enable Design & Process Validation (DV/PV) Governance of Test setup and verification of test platforms supported by lab operations technical support Governance of Test setup and test script development (using NI LabVIEW / TestStand) supported by both M&T and lab operations technical support Governance of test execution as per the specification using lab equipment (using thermal chambers, IPx) supported by lab operations technical support Encourage a Safety focus dedicated to maintaining high-quality standards. Reporting Report validation status to the project team and management on a regular basis (QRQC, 5mm...) Generation of test reports, peer-reviews of data and follow-up on approval Create daily and weekly activity reports on project- and non-project related activities using dashboards made available Perform problem management role interfacing with customer, allocation of Device Under Test (DUT) failures to appropriate functions and leading weekly reviews Participate in lessons learned across the various projects Efficiency Contribute to the improvements of the laboratory's tools such as : instruction sheet, development and validation of test environment processes automation Test Efficiency: Minimize test cycle times Provide work instructions to test houses to enable efficient transfer of test equipment Support the project team with analysis of failure modes Implement a robust and efficient automated test benches Mandatory Skills Description : Education/Training BS Engineering Degree, e.g., Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electronic Engineering, Mechatronics, Electronics, or Mechanical. Minimum 3 years test engineering experience Proficient in National Instruments (LabVIEW or TestStand) Proficient in programming languages (Java, Python) Computer literate in MS Office suite (ECDL) Professional Experience Programming in National Instruments LabVIEW and TestStand software—Certified LabVIEW Developing instrumentation interfacing over PXI, PCI, USB, RS232 & GPIB Broad experience in hardware and peripherals Ability to read, analyze, and interpret complex documents/schematics. Knowledge of automotive electronics systems Validation experience with knowledge of test & validation methods Knowledge of accelerated life testing SW applications, Embedded C, C++, Java Other Specifications Good team player; ability to work within a multinational team environment Methodical, professional, self-motivated, and level of self-awareness Excellent communication skills, both written and verbal Ability to be able to react/respond quickly to issues and be able to 'think on your feet.'
