8+ years of experience in electro-mechanical engineering with a demonstrated track record in mechanical validation, verification, or reliability test
Demonstrated experience authoring and executing mechanical validation and reliability test plans (e.g., drop, vibration, fatigue/life cycling, environmental, HALT/HASS/ALT) with defined acceptance criteria
Hands-on experience designing and building test fixtures and instrumented rigs, including sensor selection, mounting, calibration, and measurement-uncertainty assessment
Proficiency with Python for test automation, instrument control, and data analysis (e.g., NumPy/pandas or equivalent)
Experience with I/O and data acquisition: analog/digital I/O, DAQ hardware, serial interfaces (SPI/I2C/UART/USB/Ethernet), sensor signal conditioning, and motion control
Experience interpreting mechanical drawings and applying GD&T, and using metrology and inspection equipment (CMM, optical/vision measurement, 3D scanning)
Experience applying statistical methods to test design and interpretation (DOE, sample size justification, Weibull, SPC)
