Infinitum is revolutionizing electric motors with patented printed circuit board (PCB) stator technology. The company is pre-IPO, backed by leading climate tech funds, and has achieved strong market traction with major customer wins. Headquartered in Austin, TX, with a state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in Saltillo, Mexico, Infinitum is scaling rapidly across all functions.
The Test Development Engineer will design, develop, and maintain automated test systems for electric motors and Variable Frequency Drives (VFDs). This role focuses on test automation using LabVIEW and TestStand to create efficient, reliable, and scalable test processes. The engineer will work closely with Product Design, Quality, and Manufacturing teams to validate product performance, troubleshoot issues, and optimize test protocols.
Key responsibilities include:
- Design and implement automated test systems using LabVIEW and TestStand for electric motors, VFDs, and related components
- Create and optimize test algorithms to measure critical motor parameters (torque, speed, efficiency, thermal behavior)
- Develop custom test scripts and software interfaces for hardware control and data acquisition
- Integrate sensors, data acquisition systems, and control hardware into automated test setups
- Analyze test data and generate comprehensive performance reports
- Collaborate with Engineering, Quality, and Production teams to troubleshoot and improve test methodologies
- Ensure test systems are scalable, reliable, and capable of handling diverse product configurations
- Maintain detailed documentation of test procedures, system designs, and results
- Perform routine maintenance, calibration, and equipment upgrades
- Provide training and technical support to test technicians and team members
- Ensure compliance with safety, quality, and regulatory requirements including ISO standards
The ideal candidate has a strong background in both hardware and software with focus on automation, data acquisition, and test system development. Experience with LabVIEW and TestStand is critical. The posting indicates three competency levels: Entry (0-2 years), Intermediate (2-5 years), and Senior (5+ years), suggesting flexibility in seniority.
