We are seeking a detail-oriented and technically capable Test Engineering Technician to support validation and verification activities within our engineering team. This role will focus primarily on the evaluation and testing of rechargeable battery packs and battery charging systems, including electrical performance, safety, environmental behavior, durability, and lifecycle characteristics.

The successful candidate will execute standardized test procedures, collect and organize engineering data, and generate structured documentation that supports product development, supplier alignment, and engineering decision-making. As business needs evolve, this individual may also be cross-trained to support testing and validation activities across a broader range of electronic hardware products.

Key Responsibilities

• Execute standardized internal test suites to support product development, verification, and validation activities.
• Configure test setups and operate laboratory equipment to capture electrical, thermal, and functional performance measurements.
• Perform electrical, thermal, mechanical, and environmental evaluations to characterize hardware behavior.
• Record, organize, and maintain test data, observations, and measurements in structured engineering documentation.
• Maintain traceability between test conditions, hardware configurations, collected data, and reported results.
• Support the safe handling and testing of batteries, chargers, and electronic hardware in accordance with laboratory procedures and safety guidelines.
• Assist engineering teams with troubleshooting efforts, test setup refinement, and validation of design modifications.
• Collaborate with Engineering, Product Management, Manufacturing, and supplier partners to support product development activities.
• Create product-focused technical content and documentation to support product release activities.
• Review technical documentation and supporting media for technical accuracy, clarity, and alignment with evaluated hardware.
• Contribute to continuous improvement initiatives involving test methods, laboratory fixtures, documentation processes, and engineering workflows.

Required QualificationsEducation

• Associate of Applied Science (AAS) degree in Electronics Engineering Technology, Electrical Engineering Technology, or a related technical discipline.

Experience

• Hands-on experience supporting the testing and evaluation of electronic or electrical hardware products.
• Experience evaluating rechargeable batteries and battery charging systems using electrical, thermal, and functional test methods.
