Test Engineer

Key Responsibilities

• Plan, coordinate and execute development, verification, validation and certification testing of fuel cell, hydrogen and associated propulsion system components.
• Design, specify and commission test rigs, instrumentation and data acquisition systems to support a range of engineering test activities.
• Take ownership of component and subsystem test programmes, ensuring objectives, schedules and quality requirements are achieved.
• Collaborate with system, design and integration engineers, as well as external suppliers and partners, to define and deliver testing requirements.
• Analyse test data, interpret results and produce clear technical documentation including test procedures, reports and recommendations.
• Support air vehicle integration activities while applying critical thinking and innovative problem-solving to complex engineering challenges.

Role Requirements

• Experience developing technical documentation, publishing test procedures, analysing engineering data and producing detailed laboratory or test reports.
• Strong understanding of configuration control principles, including the ability to maintain test registers, interpret P&IDs, create BOMs and conduct risk assessments.
• Hands-on experience working with pressurised gas systems, fluid process equipment and fittings such as Swagelok within a laboratory or industrial environment.
• Knowledge of instrumentation, sensors and data acquisition systems, including National Instruments hardware and software (e.g. LabVIEW) or equivalent platforms.
• Familiarity with control systems and PLCs, with the ability to support automated testing and system integration activities.
• Understanding of safe working practices within regulated or hazardous environments; CompEx certification and experience with HV, ATEX or DSEAR requirements would be advantageous.
