System Integration Engineer

Responsibilities

• Lead system-level validation and integration activities across EVT, DVT, PVT, and NPI phases, ensuring products meet functional, performance, reliability, and quality requirements.
• Develop validation strategies, test plans, test cases, and execution methodologies for hardware and embedded firmware-based products.
• Perform functional, integration, reliability, and system verification testing to validate product readiness for manufacturing and customer deployment.
• Drive root cause analysis and resolution of hardware, firmware, and system integration issues using structured problem-solving methodologies.
• Define and execute Design Verification, Failure Analysis, DFT validation, and production readiness assessments.
• Establish and monitor quality metrics, yield analysis, defect trends, Cp/Cpk measurements, and continuous improvement initiatives.
• Support End-of-Line (EOL) test strategy validation, troubleshooting processes, and manufacturing test readiness activities.
• Collaborate with engineering, manufacturing, suppliers, and quality teams to ensure successful product industrialization and launch.
• Manage test documentation, defect tracking, validation reports, compliance records, and quality performance dashboards.
• Provide technical leadership during customer reviews, audits, supplier interactions, and cross-functional program discussions.

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electronics Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Embedded Systems, Mechatronics, or a related engineering discipline.
• Strong knowledge of electronics hardware, embedded firmware systems, and hardware-software integration validation.
• Expertise in product validation methodologies across EVT, DVT, PVT, and NPI lifecycle stages.
• Proficiency in functional testing, integration testing, reliability testing, and system-level verification of electronic products.
• Hands-on experience with oscilloscopes, multimeters, logic analyzers, spectrum analyzers, debuggers, and environmental test equipment.
• Strong understanding of DFT principles, failure analysis techniques, and hardware troubleshooting methodologies.
• Knowledge of industry standards and compliance requirements, including ISO 9001, IPC-A-610, safety regulations, and EMI/EMC standards.
• Experience with test automation tools, scripting, defect tracking systems, test management platforms, and data analysis tools.
• Working knowledge of PCB design interpretation, schematic analysis, debug tools, and manufacturing test processes.
• Strong communication, stakeholder management, leadership, and cross-functional collaboration skills.

Desired Experience Level

• 5-10 years of experience in System Integration, Product Validation, Quality Assurance, Test Engineering, or Electronics Product Development.
• Proven experience validating integrated hardware and embedded firmware products in consumer electronics, industrial electronics, automotive, telecommunications, or similar industries.
• Demonstrated expertise in developing system integration test plans, validation strategies, and end-to-end test execution frameworks.
• Experience supporting NPI programs and transitioning products from development to manufacturing.
• Strong track record in root cause analysis, failure investigation, yield improvement, and production quality enhancement.
• Experience working in global, cross-functional environments with customers, suppliers, and manufacturing partners.
• Exposure to establishing EOL testing, production validation processes, and manufacturing quality controls.
• Experience preparing validation reports, defect summaries, quality dashboards, and executive-level technical reviews.
• Ability and willingness to travel approximately 15-20% for customer meetings, supplier visits, audits, and program reviews.
• Demonstrated ability to manage multiple priorities, work under tight deadlines, and drive successful product release outcomes.
