Job Title: Engineering Technician (Instrumentation)

Job Description

This role focuses on installing, configuring, and maintaining instrumentation and data acquisition systems to support vehicle and component testing. You will work closely with engineering teams to ensure accurate sensor integration, reliable data collection, and timely execution of test plans in an R&D, manufacturing, or test engineering environment.

Responsibilities

Identify, source, and procure appropriate data acquisition equipment and sensors based on test requirements.
Install sensors and data acquisition hardware on vehicles and test articles as defined in test plans.
Set up data acquisition programs and validate connectivity and functionality of all sensors.
Install, calibrate, and set up strain gauges, where applicable, to support structural and material testing.
Maintain a comprehensive sensor library, including tracking inventory, coordinating sensor repair, and managing calibration activities for all instrumentation.
Create and manage daily work plans to achieve test plan objectives on schedule.
Support testing activities, including vehicle preparation, instrumentation, and post-test tear-down according to workflow priorities.
Perform onsite test support, monitor live data, and validate data quality during testing.
Conduct basic data analysis and data cleanup in collaboration with multiple engineering teams to ensure usable and accurate results.
Document work thoroughly, including adding photos of completed installations and updates, and communicate status regularly to project stakeholders.
Attend meetings with test requestors and engineering teams to clarify requirements, provide updates, and align on test objectives.
Work overtime when necessary to meet critical project deadlines and support high-priority test activities.

Essential Skills

3+ years of relevant experience in an R&D, manufacturing, or test engineering environment in roles such as Instrumentation Technician, Engineering Technician, Test Technician, or similar.
Proven experience working with common test engineering sensors and applying best practices, including accelerometers, thermocouples, RTDs, pressure sensors, humidity sensors, load cells, and strain gauges.
Strong electrical and electronic troubleshooting skills, including the ability to decipher wiring diagrams, apply Ohms Law, determine root causes, and use advanced problem-solving techniques.
Hands-on experience using digital multimeters (DMMs) and other electrical test equipment.
Sensor cable fabrication skills, including soldering, crimping, and stripping conductors to build and repair harnesses.
Professional experience setting up and using data acquisition hardware and software platforms such as Dewesoft, IPEtronik, National Instruments, and PEAK or similar tools.
Strong organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple tasks, maintain accurate documentation, and keep clear records of instrumentation and test activities.
Effective communication skills, including the ability to attend meetings with requestors, provide status updates, and clearly describe work performed.
Ability and willingness to work overtime when necessary to meet project and testing deadlines.

Additional Skills & Qualifications

5+ years of relevant experience in an R&D, manufacturing, or test engineering environment in roles such as Instrumentation Technician, Engineering Technician, Test Technician, or similar.
Associate degree or certificate in a relevant field such as Engineering Technology, Certified Engineering Technician, Mechatronics Engineering Technology, or a related discipline.
Basic coding or programming experience in languages such as Python or C++.
Experience working with microcontrollers and single-board computers such as Teensy, Arduino, or ESP32.
Fundamental engineering knowledge in areas such as material strain, axial load, and sensor technology and applications.
Basic experience with 3D printing, 3D design, and 3D scanning to support fixture and component development.
Experience using AI tools to streamline workflows and improve efficiency while maintaining core engineering and technical skills.
Experience viewing and logging CAN signals for vehicle or system-level data acquisition.

Work Environment

You will work primarily in a laboratory environment with hands-on access to vehicles, test rigs, and instrumentation equipment. The role involves local travel of less than 25% to support onsite testing, vehicle installations, and data collection activities.
