Software Engineering Manager, Hardware Test (X-BAT) (R6020)

What you'll do

• Lead and mentor engineers and own the technical roadmap for test stands, frameworks, station software, and test-data systems.
• Develop scalable Python-based test automation for hardware control, data collection, pass/fail evaluation, and reporting.
• Coordinate with electrical, mechanical, FPGA, and embedded teams to improve test coverage, reliability, diagnostics, and traceability.

What they ask for

• 5+ years of experience in software engineering, test automation, embedded systems, hardware-integrated software, manufacturing test, avionics, aerospace, robotics, automotive, industrial systems, or similar fields.
• 2+ years of direct people-management experience leading software, test, or hardware-integration engineers.
• Demonstrated experience building, deploying, and sustaining automated functional-test systems for complex hardware.
• Strong Python experience; experience with C++ or C; and experience working directly with electrical hardware, test fixtures, instrumentation, and devices under test.

Nice to have

• Experience developing automated production test equipment for avionics, aerospace, defense, autonomous systems, robotics, or other mission-critical hardware.
• Experience with reusable test frameworks, FPGA-adjacent work, embedded systems, production traceability, or regulated and safety-critical environments.
