Seeking a talented Hardware Qualification Engineer II (HQE II). The HQE II is responsible for Line Replaceable Unit (LRU) box-level and module-level testing in the aerospace and defense industries. Responsibilities include both validation and verification efforts associated with LRUs. This position provides continuous cradle-to-grave product test support that includes: evaluating the testability of requirements during requirement definition, writing hardware qualification test documents, performing informal and formal qualification testing, and writing the qualification test report.

Validation involves proving the LRU design meets functional, environmental, electromagnetic interference, and nuclear survivability requirements. Verification includes testing each serial number of the LRU that is produced to ensure it was built according to design drawings and to detect workmanship defects. LRUs are validated/verified through inspection, demonstration, analysis, simulation, and formal laboratory testing.

This position is part of a hardware team that includes mechanical, electrical, systems, and other hardware qualification engineers.
