* Ideally a degree or similar in a relevant engineering or scientific subject (e.g. mechanical engineering, automotive engineering, physics etc)
* At least 3-5 years of relevant industry experience as a test engineer, validation engineer or development engineer working on similar electromechanical products (e.g. electric motors, automotive powertrain / engines, transmissions / gearboxes, etc)
* Proven experience of physical / mechanical test of products (environmental test, reliability testing, durability, accelerated life, destructive test, performance, water ingress, NVH – noise, vibration, harshness)
* Experience of creating and developing test processes and procedures from product requirements
* Able to collate, analyse and interpret test and validation data
* Experience of working with customers and producing test / validation reports
* Experience of using tools such as Labview, LabWindows, Python and / or Matlab.
* Able to plan and manage test projects and plan to ensure efficient test and development cycles
Others (useful experience):
* Ability to supervise or mentor test technicians would be great
* Experience with working with external test houses and certification bodies
* Able to support the build, test and problem solving of test-rigs
* Able to travel occasionally to customer sites or other company facilities (1-2 times per year)
The ideal candidate would be an experience test engineer, development engineer or validation engineer that has worked specifically on electric motors (ideally for electric powertrain / electrified propulsion applications). Automotive industry experience would be great but other highly regulated industry experience would be considered (e.g. aerospace, medical devices, rail or perhaps industrial control / traction systems.)
