Job Summary
We are seeking a hands-on Test Engineer to support the planning, execution, and analysis of machine-level thermal and cooling system tests. This role partners closely with design and validation teams to develop test plans, install and troubleshoot instrumentation, execute tests in lab and field environments, and communicate clear, data-driven recommendations. The position is highly collaborative and well suited for an engineer who enjoys both technical analysis and physical, hands-on work.

Responsibilities

• Plan, set up, execute, and document thermal and cooling system tests
• Develop test and validation plans in collaboration with design and validation engineers
• Install, configure, and troubleshoot instrumentation such as thermocouples, pressure transducers, and flow meters
• Execute tests with or without machine operators and support troubleshooting during test activities
• Analyze test data and prepare clear technical reports with findings and recommendations
• Communicate results to cross-functional engineering teams to support design decisions
• Support senior engineers with test setup and execution while progressively taking ownership of assigned projects
• Participate in design reviews and planning meetings, both in person and via teleconference

Years of Experience and Education

• Experience: 5–7 years of relevant engineering experience (internship experience accepted)
• Education: Bachelor’s degree in Engineering with coursework in Thermodynamics and/or Fluid Dynamics (e.g., Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or related discipline)
• Related Backgrounds: Cooling Test Engineer or similar test/validation engineering roles

Skills Required

• Strong understanding of thermodynamic and fluid systems
• Experience applying test instrumentation, including thermocouples, pressure transducers, and flow meters
• Ability to plan and execute hands-on testing in lab, bay, and outdoor environments
• Strong analytical skills with the ability to interpret data and draw sound technical conclusions
• Clear written and verbal communication skills
• High initiative and strong collaboration skills
• Ability to perform physical work, including climbing large machines and using hand tools safely
