As a Mechanical Test Engineer at Zaber, you will develop innovative test systems for analyzing the performance of our precision motion control products. This is a good opportunity to learn mechanical design, instrumentation, and programming in the context of helping to build and sell better products. As a collaborative member of our team, you will perform tests on a variety of electromechanical devices, which involve setting up and running test equipment, writing automated test scripts, and analyzing results.

You will work on projects that will help to expand our measurement capabilities as we push into industrial markets and build more complex multi-axis systems. While prototyping components for these projects, you'll have full access to our well-equipped machine shop, which includes a waterjet, laser cutter, lathes, mills (both manual and CNC), and numerous other tools.
