As well as ultra-high performance, low-weight electric motors and controllers, Evolito specialises in high integrity, bespoke battery systems for the aerospace and defence markets. The team is scaling rapidly and has ambitious growth plans over the next twelve to eighteen months.
Position: Manufacturing Test Engineer
As part of our continued growth, we are looking for a Manufacturing Test Engineer to join our Electrical Manufacturing Engineering team. Reporting to our Team Lead, you will be responsible for developing, validating, improving, and supporting manufacturing test processes, test equipment, and associated documentation to enable safe, reliable, and scalable production of our products.
Key Responsibilities
- Develop, validate, and maintain manufacturing test processes, equipment, fixtures, and procedures for in-process and end-of-line product testing
- Support production teams with day-to-day test issues, fault finding, failure analysis, and rapid resolution of manufacturing test constraints
- Analyse test data, yield performance, and failure trends to identify root causes, reduce test escapes, and improve first-time pass rates
- Specify, source, debug, and commission test equipment, instrumentation, and tooling required to support new and existing manufacturing processes
- Create and maintain clear test specifications, standard work, control plans, work instructions, acceptance criteria, and supporting manufacturing documentation
- Work closely with Design Engineering, Quality, Operations, Supply Chain, and external suppliers to ensure products and processes are designed for robust, repeatable manufacturing test
- Support new product introduction by defining test requirements, developing manufacturing test strategies, and ensuring equipment and processes are ready for production release
- Drive continuous improvement activities focused on test cycle time, equipment uptime, process capability, product quality, and manufacturing efficiency
- Ensure manufacturing test activities comply with applicable safety, quality, regulatory, and company requirements
- Train and support operators, technicians, and engineers in the correct use, maintenance, and troubleshooting of manufacturing test equipment and processes
