We believe unimaginable breakthroughs for human progress are possible when we can explore ideas by cycling rapidly between conception and realization.  Whether we’re settling the frontiers of outer space, mapping genes for longer lives, shifting the world to clean energy or prototyping the electronics that make it all possible, the drive toward innovation is an inherent part of our human nature.

That’s why Tempo is here - to take that drive to entirely new levels. By building a more intelligent and intuitive manufacturing system designed to meet the demands of innovation, we’re bringing speed, precision, and transparency where they’ve never been before.

What does Tempo Automation do?

At Tempo Automation, we're modernizing the way electronics are manufactured and we are looking for the most talented, creative, and passionate people to join our team! We are building sophisticated software and a robotic factory for rapid electronics prototyping. We enable engineers to manufacture their designs at the click of a button in as fast as 3 days (instead of weeks to months), allowing them to rapidly test and iterate on their designs.

What you’ll do…

We’re looking for a Jr. Test Engineer to join our manufacturing team. In this role, reporting to the Sr. Director of Manufacturing, you will be responsible for final test of loaded printed circuit boards, including fixture setup, test, troubleshooting, rework and fixture breakdown.

We’re looking for someone that has…

• 3+ years’ experience, in EMS or NPI business preferred. Previous work experience in a manufacturing environment is required.
• Must have the ability to lift, push, pull, or carry objects using arms, back, abdominal muscles, shoulders, legs, or a combination of these muscle groups to a maximum of 50 pounds.
• Must be be able to remove and replace both surface mount and through hole components
• Experience working in a fast-paced and deadline-driven environment.
• Proven multi-tasking abilities.

Some of the things you’ll work on include:

• Participate in Engineering Meetings to understand DFT (Design for Test analysis) and test coverage
• Test individual and multiple circuit boards using product specific test procedures and equipment
• Using the test results along with schematics, drawings, and product specifications, locate and repair the circuit malfunction.
• Enter and track yield/troubleshoot data for all tested products and participate in failure analysis.  Utilize and enter data into Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems for tested and debugged assemblies.
• Interface with cross-functional groups (materials, manufacturing, process engineering)
• Develop and improve test procedures/processes with process engineering, as required.
• Maintain the condition of the tools, instruments and measuring instruments used in the course of work in good condition.  Maintain and perform preventive maintenance programs for equipment as necessary.
• Minimize the number of units waiting to be repaired by working quickly and efficiently.
