From the original posting
As a Hardware Test Engineering Intern at Reliable Robotics, you will be a key part of the Hardware Test team. This is a small team of broadly experienced engineers that strive to ensure that all hardware being produced meets the stringent requirements for aviation. Hardware Test Engineers are one of the essential interfaces between the design, production, and flight test teams and are exposed to a wide variety of engineering fields and technical challenges. You will be creating automated test stands to replicate extreme flight conditions on our hardware and mechanisms that will serve as the backbone of our qualification testing. You will help to break our development hardware, help root-cause the failure modes, and provide critical input in redesigning it. You will be writing the software and building the hardware platforms for the command, control and data collection systems that will test our systems to rigorous aerospace standards.
Responsibilities
Full ownership of the development of mechanical or electrical test stands for development testing, production acceptance testing, functional and environmental qualification testing
Author, execute, and audit test plans, procedures, and reports
Work closely with design engineers and flight test engineers to design, build, test and improve flight hardware
Basic Success Criteria
Junior or Senior standing in 4-year college degree program in mechanical engineering, aerospace engineering, electrical engineering OR equivalent practical experience
A demonstrated passion for mechanical, electrical, or electromechanical hardware
Experience using ECAD tools such as Altium or MCAD tools such as NX
Comfort with basic software scripting in Python, C/C++, or MATLAB
Working understanding of mechanical and electrical engineering fundamentals (statics, dynamics, mechanics of materials, basic circuit design)
Eagerness for hands-on work - integration of sensors, building harnesses, diagnosing and debugging equipment and hardware
Preferred Success Criteria
Hands on application of engineering through classes, clubs, or hobbies
Familiarity with test instrumentation and data collection methods such as NI DAQ, UEI DAQ, LabJack, etc.
Working knowledge of measurement and data analysis; ability to clearly present technical data and state its limitations
