Shift Schedule: 3rd shift. | First month: 7:30 am - 4:00 pm and remaining: 10:00 pm - 6:00 am

Job Description:

The Test Technician is a specialized technical role responsible for the critical quality validation, functional diagnosis, and high-pressure safety testing of industrial actuation systems.
Positioned as the final authority on product integrity, this role requires complete mastery of all complex mechanical, hydraulic, and electrical assembly disciplines, combined with advanced root-cause analysis skills to diagnose and resolve system failures.
Operating under strict hazardous energy containment protocols, the Test Technician also serves as the primary technical liaison with third-party inspectors, verifying that custom-engineered products meet stringent regulatory and customer specifications.

Job Responsibilities:

Execute comprehensive mechanical, hydraulic, and electrical functional testing on completed actuator assemblies, validating system performance against rigorous engineering and customer quality specifications.
Conduct high-pressure pneumatic and hydrostatic tests, strictly adhering to hazardous energy containment protocols, including blast bunker operations, safety shield deployment, and visual warning notification policies.
Perform advanced root-cause analysis on failing units, utilizing technical diagnostics to isolate faulty components, determine failure modes, and independently execute complex mechanical, fluid-power, or electrical repairs.
Serve as the primary on-site technical representative and liaison for third-party regulatory inspectors (such as ASME, ISO, or customer auditors), guiding them through validation procedures and testifying to product compliance.
Interpret advanced multi-discipline engineering schematics, fluid power layouts, customer-specific testing protocols, and electrical wiring diagrams to build custom test-bench configurations.
Document precise quantitative test data, failure analysis reports, and compliance certifications, maintaining meticulous records required for final product shipment and traceability.
Identify systemic manufacturing or design vulnerabilities discovered during testing and collaborate directly with manufacturing engineering to implement corrective actions.
Maintain, calibrate, and ensure the operational safety of specialized test stand equipment, pressure gauges, and diagnostic instrumentation.

Must Have:

High School Diploma or GED equivalent.
1 to 3 years of experience in industrial manufacturing assembly, technical testing, or fluid power/electrical diagnostics.
Ability to pass a practical assessment during the interview covering mechanical assembly, hydraulic/pneumatic plumbing, and electrical wiring competencies.
Proven experience working with high-pressure fluid systems or hazardous energy control protocols, with a demonstrated commitment to industrial safety compliance.
Analytical ability to synthesize technical data, diagnose non-conformance issues, and complete formal root-cause failure documentation.
Excellent verbal and written communication skills necessary to confidently interface with external corporate inspectors and engineering teams.

Preferred Qualifications:

Prior experience conducting formal validation testing under the direct supervision of third-party inspection agencies.
Technical background equivalent to certification in Engineering Technology, Mechatronics, or a related industrial trade discipline.
