GTS Sr FVT Engineer - Software Development

SUMMARY OVERVIEW GTS technical positions all require similar types of activities, but the required level of technical expertise increases with the higher level positions. A GTS Senior Engineer is required to be able to perform medium complexity engineering work. The types of work performed by a GTS Senior Engineer include development of test solution proposals, development of test solutions, test crisis support, and continuous improvement of core competency.



ESSENTIAL DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES

Development of test solution proposals:
? Test solution proposals typically include, but are not limited to:
? Price commitment
? Schedule commitment
? Preliminary test specification
? Hardware description
? Software description
? Documentation package description
? Specification of tester validation criteria
? Specification of support requirements of the proposed test solution
? Specification of required customer deliverables.
? The process of developing test solution proposals includes, but is not limited to:
? Use of GTS on-line Request For Quote (RFQ) form and quote tracking tools and systems
? Adherence to GTS RFQ responsiveness requirements
? Use of GTS Functional Verification Test (FVT) proposal templates (quote form, test plan form)
? Completion of proposals on-schedule

Development of test solutions:
? Typically assigned to develop test specifications and test solutions of medium complexity.
? Test solution development tasks must be done according to budget and schedule commitments submitted in test solution proposals
? The tasks comprising a test solution development may include, but are not limited to, Design For Test (DFT), design, assembly, debug, validation, deployment, and emergency support of electrical hardware, mechanical hardware, optical hardware, and software.
? Electrical hardware typically includes, but is not limited to:
? GPIB and RS-232 controlled equipment
? VXI based test equipment
? Custom circuitry implemented in custom circuit boards and cables
? Mechanical hardware typically includes, but is not limited to:
? Environmental Stress Screening (ESS) chamber racks
? Bench-test setups
? 19? equipment racks
? Custom automated high-throughput fixtures with probe fields, and top, bottom, and side mounted pneumatically actuated modules.
? Software and compilers typically includes, but is not limited to:
? LabWindows/CVI, LabView, and TestStand
? ANSI C and Visual C++
? Visual Basic
? Assembly for Motorola and Intel microcontrollers and microprocessors
? HTML, PERL, ASP, and custom scripting languages.
? GTS FVT test development sites develop solutions for several test processes including, but not limited to:
? Board-level functional test
? ESS
? System test
? The process of developing test solutions includes, but is not limited to, the use of GTS tools and systems for:
? Test development (OrCAD, AutoCAD, software development tools listed above)
? Project tracking (action items, journals, time entry, milestones, and deliverables checklists)
? Test solution design guidelines (global fixture specification, schematic design requirements)
? Design reviews (design proposal, post-installation)
? FVT documentation package templates (test specification, BOM?s, tester validation, etc?)

Test Crisis Support:
? Support for the GTS Hotline.
? Special support requests as needed.

Industry recognition:
? Active membership in one industry recognized professional organizations.
? Attendance at a minimum of one industry recognized seminar, conference, or consortium.
