As a Test Hardware Development Engineer (Electronics) at Redlen Technologies you’ll will report the the Test Hardware Development Team Lead and be part of the team responsible for the end-to-end delivery of complex X-ray test equipment for the Photon Counting Computed Tomography CZT sensor manufacturing process. Our team members include electronics hardware, software, FPGA and firmware, and mechanical designers.
Redlen needs to design top notch test equipment. The design considerations include:
Safety and user protection from high voltage and X-ray radiation.
Delivery of noise free HV DC bias (-1000 Vdc).
Thermal control for consistency and margin testing.
X-ray transparency.
X-Ray beam modulation, shaping, and scatter control.
Voltage and current monitoring.
Durability & ergonomic concerns.
Repeatability and reliability.
Government agency compliance.
Success in the timeline set involves the integration of our 3rd generation tester platform into new X-ray sensor module testers for current products, followed by a new tester variant for the in-development mass production modules. Beyond that, Redlen needs to scale up to mass production and test in much higher volume. Automated test equipment design and delivery may be a future requirement of this role.
