The Opportunity
&nbsp;
An exciting opportunity has arisen for an experienced Principal Test Engineer to take ownership of test engineering strategy, standards and technical governance within a manufacturing environment.
&nbsp;
This is a senior technical role focused on expertise, influence and complex problem-solving rather than people management. You will act as the recognised Subject Matter Expert and technical authority for test engineering, providing direction across manufacturing, production, quality and design functions.
&nbsp;
The successful candidate will play a key role in improving test capability, increasing equipment reliability, reducing production issues and developing robust, standardised test solutions.
&nbsp;
Key Responsibilities
&nbsp;
Technical Authority &amp; Strategy
&nbsp;
* Act as the technical authority for test engineering activities across the organisation.
* Define and own the test engineering strategy, standards and roadmap.
* Establish best-practice methodologies for test development, validation and deployment.
* Review, approve and govern test solutions and architectures.
&nbsp;
Technical Expertise &amp; Problem Solving
&nbsp;
* Act as the escalation point for complex or critical test failures.
* Lead root cause analysis and corrective/preventive actions.
* Provide expert knowledge across automated test equipment (ATE), functional and end-of-line testing, instrumentation and measurement techniques.
* Resolve complex hardware/software interface issues.
* Support Design for Test (DFT) and New Product Introduction (NPI) activities.
&nbsp;
Manufacturing &amp; Operational Support
&nbsp;
Work closely with Manufacturing and Production teams to improve:

&nbsp; * First Pass Yield (FPY)
&nbsp; * Test cycle times
&nbsp; * Equipment uptime and reliability
&nbsp; * Overall test efficiency
* Identify and eliminate recurring test issues and systemic weaknesses.
* Provide hands-on technical troubleshooting when required.
&nbsp;
Continuous Improvement &amp; Innovation
&nbsp;
* Lead improvements across test processes, equipment and methodologies.
* Identify opportunities for automation, digitalisation, improved data utilisation and cost reduction.
* Drive cycle-time improvements and increased test capability.
* Evaluate and introduce new technologies, tools and approaches.
&nbsp;
Governance &amp; Standards
&nbsp;
* Develop and maintain test specifications, engineering standards and validation/qualification processes.
* Ensure test engineering activities comply with relevant quality, regulatory and customer requirements.
* Conduct technical reviews and audits of test systems and processes.
&nbsp;
Knowledge &amp; Capability Development
&nbsp;
* Build and maintain a comprehensive test engineering knowledge base.
* Develop technical documentation covering test architectures, diagnostic procedures, fault-finding guides, maintenance and calibration standards.
* Reduce single-point-of-failure risks by ensuring critical knowledge is documented and shared.
* Develop and deliver structured training for engineers and technicians.
* Mentor and coach engineering personnel and support wider capability development.
* Define competency requirements for test engineering roles.
&nbsp;
Cross-Functional Leadership
&nbsp;
You will work closely with stakeholders across:
&nbsp;
* Manufacturing Engineering
* Production &amp; Operations
* Quality &amp; Reliability Engineering
* Design &amp; Development
* Supply Chain
* External suppliers and equipment vendors
&nbsp;
You will be expected to influence and drive technical decisions through expertise and credibility, rather than formal line-management authority.
&nbsp;
&nbsp;What We're Looking For
&nbsp;
Essential Experience &amp; Qualifications
&nbsp;
* Degree or equivalent experience in Electrical, Electronic, Mechanical Engineering or a related discipline.
* Extensive test engineering experience within a manufacturing environment.
* Strong knowledge of automated test systems and ATE.
* Strong understanding of electronics and/or mechanical systems.
* Experience with data analysis, fault diagnosis and complex technical problem-solving.
* Proven experience using structured problem-solving methodologies such as **8D, RCA and Six Sigma**.
* Demonstrable experience improving test processes, equipment performance and manufacturing outcomes.
&nbsp;
Personal &amp; Leadership Skills
&nbsp;
* Recognised technical expert with strong credibility.
* Comfortable operating as a technical authority without direct management responsibility.
* Able to influence stakeholders and drive change through technical expertise.
* Highly analytical and structured approach to problem solving.
* Strong communication skills with the ability to engage effectively across all levels.
* A proactive approach to continuous improvement and knowledge sharing.
&nbsp;
**Lean Six Sigma certification or experience would be desirable.**
&nbsp;
&nbsp;What Success Looks Like
&nbsp;
In this role, success will be measured through improvements including:
&nbsp;
* Reduced test-related production issues.
* Improved first-pass yield and test efficiency.
* Reduced test equipment downtime.
* Faster resolution of complex technical issues.
* Improved mean time to repair (MTTR).
* Increased adoption of standardised test processes.
* Successful delivery of test improvement and innovation projects.
* Improved capability across the engineering and production teams.
* Reduced dependency on individual technical expertise.
* A robust, accessible and well-maintained test engineering knowledge base.
&nbsp;
Why This Role?
&nbsp;
This is an opportunity to become the technical point of reference for test engineering, shaping strategy and standards while remaining close to the technical challenges that matter most.
&nbsp;
You will have the opportunity to influence how test engineering is developed, standardised and improved across the operation, working on high-value problems and introducing new technologies and ways of working.
&nbsp;
If you are an experienced Test Engineer looking to step into a Principal-level technical authority position, this could be an excellent opportunity to make a significant impact.
