## About the role

Muon seeks a Hardware Test Engineer to join our Testbeds & EGSE team — the group that builds the Hardware-In-The-Loop (HITL) testbeds behind every Muon mission and the electrical ground support equipment (EGSE) used to interface with our satellites during assembly, integration, and test. In this role you'll lead the design of our future testbed infrastructure and next generation of EGSE, while staying hands-on in the build and bring-up of the testbeds our missions depend on today.

## What they're looking for

- 5+ years of hands-on experience with complex electromechanical systems, including 2+ years in test, testbed, or test-infrastructure development
- Background in electrical engineering, embedded software, mechanical engineering, or industrial controls
- Experience designing hardware — electrical, mechanical, or integrated systems — that others build and use
- Ability to read and work from electrical schematics, block diagrams, and production drawings
- Strong hands-on debugging skills across hardware and software interfaces, with standard test equipment (multimeters, oscilloscopes)
- Scripting or programming ability (Python, Bash, or similar)
