Senior/Mid Hardware Test & DFT Engineer (PCBA)
Confirmed on the employer's own hiring board on Oct 12, 2026. First seen by Alion on Oct 11, 2026.
At Orqa, we’re building technology that allows humans and machines to see the world like never before. We bring together engineers, creators, and innovators who push the boundaries of what’s possible - from cutting-edge FPV systems to advanced Remote Reality solutions, and toward the next generation of robotics. And behind every great technology, there’s great organization.
We are looking for a Hardware Test Engineer specializing in PCBA manufacturing and Design for Testability (DFT).
In this role, you will be the bridge between our R&D hardware design team and our manufacturing partners. You will ensure our boards are optimized for high-yield production by designing, implementing, and debugging test strategies-including In-Circuit Testing (ICT), Flying Probe, and Functional Testing (FCT).
WHAT YOU’LL DO
Drive DFT Reviews: Analyze schematics and PCB layouts in Altium/Cadence during early design phases to ensure proper test point coverage, physical clearance, and JTAG boundary scan capabilities
Develop Test Fixtures: Own the deployment of ICT "bed-of-nails" fixtures and Flying Probe routines with our manufacturing partners
Automate & Program: Write and maintain test scripts (Python, LabVIEW, or C) for Functional Test (FCT) environments to automate instrument control (power supplies, DMMs, scopes)
Root-Cause Failures: Diagnose production line failures down to the component level, distinguishing between manufacturing defects (solder bridges, tombstoning) and design flaws
Yield Optimization: Analyze test data to identify failure trends, reduce cycle times, and minimize false-failure rates on the line
WHAT WE EXPECT
B.S. in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related technical field
3+ years of experience in PCBA testing, production support, or hardware validation
Deep familiarity with test methodologies: ICT, Flying Probe and JTAG/Boundary Scan
Hands-on lab skills: Oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, logic analyzers, and soldering
Strong understanding of manufacturing standards (IPC-A-610)
WHY YOU’LL LOVE IT HERE
