  • Assemble circuit boards, connectors, ribbon cables, jumpers, and other electronic components into custom-built enclosures
  • Test sensors and printed circuit boards using a combination of electrical test equipment and LabVIEW-based software scripts
  • Participate actively in inventory management and quarterly inventory checks
  • Conduct final assembly of sensor systems onto customer driveshafts, including application of sealant, ensuring integrity of the full assembly, and certifying system fitness for homologation
  • Participate in failure analyses by dissecting and analyzing hardware returned from the field, conducting diagnostic and validation testing, and comparing with original results. Assist in writing and issuing detailed reports outlining findings
