Test Engineer - R&D

<div class="content-intro"><p>ON.energy<span class="Apple-converted-space">&nbsp;</span>is setting the standard for large load interconnection. ON’s patented AI UPS™ is a medium-voltage UPS that serves as a firewall, protecting the data center from the grid, and the grid from the data center.&nbsp;With multiple gigawatts currently under construction, we are enabling grid-safe data centers.&nbsp;</p></div><h3>Role Summary</h3> <p>Our Research &amp; Development team is looking for a hands-on Test Engineer to join our Houston team. This is a versatile, growth-oriented role for an engineer who wants to build a broad foundation across testing, design, and field work.</p> <p>You will support our Test Engineering team in designing, integrating, and executing tests for state of the art power conversion systems,&nbsp; energy storage systems, and control architectures in high-stakes, advanced applications as part of ON.energy's Research and Development group. You will also contribute to electrical design deliverables and participate in the assembly, integration, troubleshooting, and testing of equipment in a laboratory environment.</p> <p>The ideal candidate is curious and adaptable—comfortable moving between a lab bench, a CAD tool, and physical equipment on the same day. You should be eager to learn new tools and technologies, including simulation and programming platforms such as MATLAB/Simulink, PLC programming, and Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) systems, while being comfortable working directly with electrical and test equipment up to 2000Vdc and 1000Vac.</p> <p>We value drive, curiosity, and a willingness to take on new challenges as much as years of experience. This role is an opportunity to develop a broad engineering skill set while working on advanced power conversion and energy storage technologies.</p> <h3>Responsibilities:</h3> <p><strong>Laboratory Validation</strong></p> <ul> <li>Support the development and execution of test procedures for high-power power electronic converters and energy storage systems.</li> <li>Operate laboratory equipment such as oscilloscopes, multimeters, power analyzers, power supplies, generators, and load banks to perform functional, performance, and stress testing.</li> <li>Identify and reproduce edge-case failures in controlled laboratory environments and analyze test data to support hardware and software improvements.</li> <li>Execute functional and performance tests against product requirements, documenting results in accordance with applicable safety standards and laboratory procedures.</li> </ul> <p><strong>Documentation</strong></p> <ul> <li>Prepare and maintain single-line diagrams (SLDs), electrical calculations, technical reports, and bills of
