ATE HW - Automation and tooling - Production Line Design Engineer

Job Description:

As an ATE engineer , you will play a pivotal role in designing the needed tools for the HW products bringup and automated production lines design and deployment . You will be responsible for defining and implementing production test strategies and manufacturing test plans to ensure product functionality is validated effectively in a high-volume production environment.

Your role will include:

• Design and Development:
• Create automated test equipment (ATE) systems for hardware testing across all product lines, ensuring scalability, accuracy, and repeatability.
• Develop production line processes for the efficient manufacture of SatixFy hardware, such as ground stations and antenna arrays, ensuring they meet product and quality standards.
• Test Strategy and Planning:
• Define and implement test strategies and manufacturing test plans for new products to ensure their functionality is tested accurately in a high-volume manufacturing setting.
• Implement a fully trackable production path, from PCBA to final product.
• Collaboration and Development:
• Work closely with HW and SW teams during the design, development, and bring-up of automation stations (ATE) to understand performance metrics.
• Support ongoing production test sequences, including engineering deviations, yield improvements, and cycle time reductions.
• Take responsibility for ATE feature testing from integration through to end-to-end functional testing.
• Production Line and ATE Support:
• Build, maintain, and support ATE test stations and fixtures used in hardware production.
• Troubleshoot and resolve technical challenges during production, including issues in hardware, software, or system performance.
• Documentation and Reporting:
• Create detailed documentation such as block diagrams, test procedures, debug instructions, and testing instructions for ATE stations at the board/system level.
• Maintain records and reports on system performance and process improvements.

Requirements:

• Education:
• B.Sc. in Electrical Engineering, or equivalent.
• Experience:
• 5 years of experience in System Integration/ Validation and HW testing.
• Proven experience in the design and deployment of ATE for hardware testing.
• Familiarity with RF testing equipment such as Spectrum Analyzers and Network Analyzers.
• Experience in production line design and automation, ideally within the electronics or telecommunications hardware industries.
• Technical Skills:
• Strong understanding of automation technologies, hardware testing methods, and production processes.
• Hands-on experience working in lab environments, including the use of RF testing tools.
• FW writing capabilities, Python, C, board bringup.
• Ability to analyze system functionality and diagnose hardware, software, or system-related issues.
• Soft Skills:
• Strong problem-solving abilities with a keen attention to detail.
• Excellent communication skills for collaboration with cross-functional teams.
• Ability to multitask and manage multiple projects concurrently.
