Requirements
5+ years of experience in a production test environment, with a strong focus on aircraft, UAV, or complex aerospace system-level testing.
Proven experience writing and executing hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) testing, system-level ATPs, and avionics functional checkouts on an active production line.
Familiarity with aircraft communication protocols (such as CAN bus, Ethernet, RS-232/485) and standard electronics test equipment (multimeters, oscilloscopes, power analyzers
Software Familiarity:
Comfortable utilizing Product Life Cycle (PLM) and Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES) to manage test configurations and documentation
Experience with autonomous aircraft, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), or advanced flight control systems.
Responsibilities
Author Test Procedures: Write, validate, and maintain clear, step-by-step assembly-level and vehicle-level Acceptance Test Procedures (ATPs) and functional test plans to verify safety-of-flight systems on the Fury aircraft.
Execute Aircraft Testing: Hands-on execution of system-level checkouts, including power-on testing, flight control actuation sweeps, wire harness continuity, sensor calibrations, and integrated avionics testing.
Troubleshoot Flight Hardware: Diagnose complex electrical, communication, and mechanical integration failures discovered during testing; identify root causes and implement Corrective Actions (CAPA/RCCA).
Technician Training & Enablement: Train, certify, and support the aircraft technician team on executing test procedures, utilizing specialized aerospace ground support equipment (GSE), and logging results in the Manufacturing Execution System (MES).
Continuous Improvement: Analyze test data and cycle times to identify bottlenecks on the flight line; continuously optimize ATPs and automated test scripts to reduce test duration without sacrificing quality or safety.
Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner with Flight Test, Quality, and Design Engineering teams to feed production test data back into the design loop, facilitating rapid design updates and product enhancements.
