Job Description
As a System Test Engineer you will prove that our machine safety and industrial communication products work together — and fail safely — in the systems our customers actually build. You will design and run system-level tests on products such as EtherNet/IP, GuardLink, IO-Link and the 450L GuardShield light curtain, build the lab setups to test them, and help shape how we test.
You will join a small, senior system test team in our Safety, Sensing and Industrial Components business.
You will report to the Manager, System and Software Test, and have a hybrid schedule working in Katowice, Poland, on site at least three days per week.
What you'll do
Own system test end to end for your products: turn requirements into risk-based test plans, then execute functional, interoperability, timing and fault-injection tests.
Build and improve hardware test rigs with safety controllers, safety light curtains, IO-Link masters and EtherNet/IP networks.
Validate that the system enters a safe state and reports the right diagnostics when faults occur.
Root-cause complex, cross-domain issues together with development and drive them to closure.
Grow our test automation and contribute to test strategy and coverage.
Bachelor's degree in Electrical, Electronics, Automation, Mechatronics, Controls or Computer Engineering, or equivalent professional experience in system, integration or hardware test.
Professional experience testing electronic or industrial automation products, hands-on with test hardware.
English language skills at CEFR B2 level or above.
The ability to work on site in Katowice, Poland at least three days per week.
Nice to have
Three or more years in system or integration test of industrial automation, machine safety or electronics products.
Experience with an industrial network — EtherNet/IP and CIP, or a comparable one such as PROFINET or EtherCAT.
Experience with safety or smart-device technologies such as GuardLink, OSSD safety outputs, IO-Link or safety light curtains.
Test automation experience with Python, LabVIEW or TestStand, and comfort with lab instruments such as an oscilloscope and programmable power supply.
