Jobs › N Reading, MA › Senior Manufacturing Test Engineer Amazon Senior Manufacturing Test Engineer N Reading, MA Apply Description Amazon is seeking a Manufacturing Test Engineer to design, deploy, and own the in-process and end-of-line test systems for a product line scaling from prototype builds toward high-volume manufacturing. This is a hands-on technical role at the intersection of manufacturing, test engineering, and data — you'll architect test stations that generate structured data designed for effortless dashboarding, and sit at the seam between validation and production — translating what engineering needs to prove into what the floor can execute at rate. The ideal candidate brings 7+ years of experience designing and deploying manufacturing test systems for complex electromechanical products — subassembly testing, in-line functional test, and parametric data collection. You should be equally comfortable specifying fixtures and instrumentation, writing test sequences, and partnering with software teams to ensure a streamlined data pipeline from station to output and learning. This role demands an exceptionally strong partnership with engineering and validation teams to translate design-intent verification requirements into robust, operator-friendly production test solutions that scale. Key job responsibilities Design and deploy manufacturing test systems — electromechanical subassembly test stations, in-line functional/parametric test, and end-of-line (EoL) acceptance test — sized for medium-to-high throughput.. Partner with Engineering and Validation to translate design verification and V&V requirements into production-grade test procedures that run at rate with high repeatability and clear pass/fail determination. Own the test data pipeline end-to-end — from sensor/instrument output through structured data export. Define and iterate data schemas and pass/fail logic, and export data that enables real-time production visibility without post-processing. Design operator-friendly test setups at medium-to-high throughput that inform high-volume line requirements — intuitive UIs, clear pass/fail indicators, guided error recovery, and work. Specify and procure test instrumentation, as in some combination of DAQ hardware, sensors, power supplies, electronic loads, motion controllers and communication interfaces (CAN, Ether

CAT, SPI, UART

), making smart build-vs-buy decisions. Design test fixtures and mechanical interfaces for device-under-test (DUT) handling and testing. Balance speed (quick turn processing techniques) and precision appropriately for the build stage. Develop and maintain test sequences/software and/or partner with software/controls teams to ensure proper version control, configuration management, and calibration procedures. Analyze test data to drive quality and design improvements — identify trends, correlate test failures to root cause, and feed actionable insights back to design and process engineering. Close the loop between test floor observations and the next design iteration. Define and evolve test coverage strategy as builds shift from development to production scale. Own "ready to test" as part of the broader build readiness process. Drive test system reliability and uptime — manage calibration schedules, develop troubleshooting guides, and train technicians and operators on test execution and basic fault recovery. Lead and build the manufacturing test culture as we grow the team Basic Qualifications Bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, or an equivalent engineering science 7+ years of manufacturing test engineering experience for electromechanical or robotic products. Experience as a technical project lead, mentoring and coordinating with teammates or employees Hands-on experience developing and deploying in-line and end-of-line functional test systems, including test sequence creation, pass/fail criteria definition, and parametric/SPC data collection. Proven ability to implement test systems end-to-end Proficiency in test software/frameworks (e.g., Lab

VIEW, NI

TestStand, Python-based test automation or custom solutions) and DAQ/instrumentation specification. Experience designing test stations intended for operator execution at production rate — not just engineering bench setups. Strong collaboration skills with a track record of partnering closely with design engineering and validation teams to translate requirements into production test solutions. Ability to partner with vendors and integrators to leverage outside resources. Preferred Qualifications Master's degree in electrical engineering, computer engineering, or equivalent Experience with hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) test system design and deployment Experience in robotics or complex electromechanical manufacturing test Ability to design test data export pipelines for dashboarding and analytics — structured data formats, naming conventions, and schemas designed for consumption, not just storage. Experience with high-volume test cell design (cycle time optimization, parallel test, multi-station architectures) Familiarity with data visualization tools (Grafana, QuickSight, etc.) and structured data formats (JSON, Parquet, SQL databases) Experience with communication protocols common in robotic/electromechanical systems (CAN, EtherCAT, SPI, UART, Ethernet/IP) Knowledge of GD&T, measurement system analysis (MSA/Gage R&R), and statistical process control Experience with test fixture design including pneumatic/actuated elements and automated DUT handling Amazon is an equal opportunity employer and does not discriminate on the basis of protected veteran status, disability, or other legally protected status.
