Mission Brief
Core Responsibilities
Role Overview
The Lead Test Platform Engineer will be the technical owner of the end-to-end Test Platform environment used for spacecraft integration, verification, validation, and manufacturing.
This is a senior, hands-on technical leadership role responsible for the architecture, development, integration, deployment, operation, and continuous improvement of spacecraft Test Stations, Test Benches, SIL/HIL environments, and associated EGSE/SCOE.
The role requires someone who can operate across hardware, software, Linux infrastructure, networking, instrumentation, spacecraft interfaces, Electrical/RF GSE, and test automation, while providing technical direction to multidisciplinary engineering teams.
A key focus will be moving from program-specific test setups toward reusable, configurable, reliable, maintainable, and scalable Test Platforms that can support increasing spacecraft production.
The Lead Test Platform Engineer will work closely with Systems Engineering, AIT, Software, Avionics, Electrical, RF/Payload, Design Engineering, D2M, Industrial Operations, Infrastructure, and Program teams.
