The Design Verification Test Engineer will be a member of a team responsible for test case generation and implementation, including test case automation and scripting.  Test cases will be designed to verify system level functional specifications for advanced telecommunications networks and services.

This DVT Engineer is a position where the work is primarily focused on the development or improvement of actual products or designs.  Assignments are designed to develop professional work knowledge and abilities. Requires ability to perform Engineering tasks for a major project or for projects of moderate complexity with limited direction.

• Develop or assist in the development of automated test applications and test systems from existing test cases or general requirement documents. 
• Ensure that test applications, test procedures, test systems, and test cases verify system level functional specifications for advanced telecommunications networks and services. 
• May work closely with design engineers to develop and automate test procedures.
• Work closely with HW/SW developers to recreate and resolve issues found during testing.
• Maintain accurate test procedure documentation. 
• Analyze and interpret or assist in the analysis of test case results using debug output (CLI debug output, WireShark network traces, equipment level Debug output, etc.) to provide specific failure mechanism information to Design Engineering.
• Analyze or assist in the analysis of problem re-creation results using debug output to provide specific failure mechanism information to Design Engineering. 
• May assist in the maintenance and development of automated software stability tests (smoke tests) or other test automation related software within SDVT.
• May train and guide test technicians in performance of test cases.
• May assist in managing offsite testers.
• Other projects and assignments may result and be assigned to accommodate the changing needs of the department and the Company.
