As a Test Equipment Controls Engineer, you'll serve as the technical owner of production and engineering test systems, ensuring reliable operation of existing equipment while leading efforts to enhance and modernize testing capabilities.

This role combines the responsibilities of a controls engineer, automation engineer, and test systems engineer. You'll play a critical role in maintaining and improving the production and development test equipment used to support both manufacturing and new product development. If you're energized by troubleshooting complex systems, modernizing legacy equipment, developing automation solutions, and improving how products are tested, this is an opportunity to make a direct impact across Moog's Industrial Group.

To be considered for Test Equipment Controls Engineer, here’s what you’ll typically bring:

  • Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Mechatronics Engineering, Controls Engineering, or a related technical discipline.
  • 5+ years of experience supporting, designing, developing, or maintaining industrial test equipment, automation systems, controls systems, or complex manufacturing equipment.
  • Experience programming, troubleshooting, and commissioning PLC-based control systems.
  • Experience with industrial instrumentation, sensors, signal conditioning, measurement systems, and data acquisition hardware.
  • Hands-on experience supporting electromechanical, hydraulic, servo-controlled, or automated systems.
  • Strong problem-solving, troubleshooting, and root cause analysis skills.

It’s preferred if you bring:

  • Experience developing or supporting PC-based test software, HMI applications, or graphical user interfaces.
  • Experience with National Instruments hardware and LabVIEW.
  • Experience integrating PLCs, HMIs, motion control systems, instrumentation, and data acquisition platforms.
  • Experience supporting manufacturing test equipment, automated test stands, or production testing environments.
  • Experience modernizing legacy equipment through controls, automation, and software upgrades.
  • Familiarity with servo motors, motion control, closed-loop control systems, and industrial automation technologies.

As a Test Equipment Controls Engineer, you will:

  • Own the reliability, performance, configuration management, and continuous improvement of production test stands used to validate complex electromechanical, hydraulic, and motion control products.
  • Troubleshoot and resolve electrical, mechanical, hydraulic, instrumentation, controls, and software-related issues to minimize downtime and support manufacturing operations.
  • Design, build, modify, and upgrade production and engineering test equipment, including test stands, control panels, instrumentation systems, and data acquisition hardware.
  • Develop, modify, and troubleshoot PLC-based control systems, automated machine logic, and integrated test equipment controls.
  • Create, maintain, and enhance operator-facing HMI and GUI applications that improve usability, efficiency, and data visibility.
  • Select, install, calibrate, and maintain sensors, transducers, instrumentation, signal conditioning hardware, and measurement systems used for product testing and validation.
  • Integrate PLCs, instrumentation, data acquisition systems, servo drives, motors, and other control hardware into automated test environments.
  • Support engineering development, qualification, and performance testing by configuring test setups, implementing instrumentation plans, and developing test methods.
  • Lead root cause investigations and corrective actions related to test equipment failures, measurement issues, and system performance concerns.
  • Develop and maintain technical documentation including electrical schematics, control logic, operating procedures, calibration requirements, preventive maintenance plans, and software revision records.
  • Drive modernization initiatives that improve automation, test capability, repeatability, safety, throughput, and overall equipment effectiveness through hardware and software enhancements.
  • Partner closely with Manufacturing, Product Engineering, Quality, and Maintenance teams to ensure test systems effectively support both production and product development activities.

How we care for you:

  • Financial Rewards: great compensation package, bonus opportunities, matching 401k, and the ability to participate in Employee Stock Purchase Plan (select locations), Flexible Spending and Health Savings Accounts
  • Work/Life Balance: Flexible paid time off, holidays and parental leave program, relocation assistance.

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
