As a member of the Client Biosciences San Jose Hardware Engineering Research & Development team, you will be the NPI interface for new designs in collaboration with the manufacturing test engineering team and will be responsible for defining and developing the R&D automated test for all new board designs. You will work closely with the designers to offer guidance on the test requirements. Your designs will be leveraged by Compliance and validation engineers to conduct characterization of the designs. You will play a crucial role to enable synergies during the development process. This equipment includes technology from every major area of science and engineering. The Hardware Engineering Research & Development team is responsible for high-speed cell analyzers and sorters that are designed to include lasers, detection electronics, fluidics, power supplies, low-noise analog circuits, high-speed data acquisition and digital signal processing and high bandwidth communication protocols. The candidate will work closely with the hardware design teams throughout the product life cycle by defining and specifying test requirements. You will be supporting pre-testing of the Hardware developed by the design teams and supporting the team through product execution, ultimately leading the manufacturing test team to leverage your ATE test platform. The ideal candidate must be responsive, flexible and able to succeed within an open collaborative peer environment across multiple projects simultaneously.
