Position Summary:

We are seeking a highly skilled Laboratory Test Technician to support testing, validation, and continuous improvement of advanced liquid‑cooling systems used in high‑performance data center and industrial environments. This role is heavily hands-on and focuses on executing thermal/fluid testing, operating specialized lab equipment, and supporting engineering with accurate, high-quality data.

Key Responsibilities:

Liquid‑Cooling Test Execution

• Set up and operate liquid‑cooling test loops, including pumps, heat‑exchange components, valves, sensors, filtration systems, and fluid handling equipment.
• Execute test procedures developed by engineering, ensuring correct configuration, instrumentation placement, flow control, and environmental conditions.
• Monitor system behavior during testing, including thermal performance, pressure stability, flow characteristics, and leak detection.
• Collect and record test measurements with high accuracy using calibrated temperature, pressure, and flow instrumentation.

Instrumentation & Data Quality

• Perform routine calibration checks on lab instrumentation and maintain traceability records.
• Validate sensor accuracy prior to testing and document any deviations or corrections.
• Ensure that data captured during testing meets precision and repeatability requirements.

Fluid Handling & System Maintenance

• Prepare coolant mixtures, manage fluid transfers, and maintain cleanliness and quality of liquids used in testing.
• Perform system flushing, debubbling, filtering, and contamination control tasks.
• Conduct regular maintenance on pumps, hoses, valves, fittings, and measurement hardware to ensure consistent performance.

Mechanical Setup & Lab Configuration

• Assemble, adjust, and reconfigure test fixtures, piping arrangements, brackets, and test hardware as needed for various test campaigns.
• Assist engineers in installing prototype or production components into test setups.
• Support safe operation of pressurized systems, chilled loops, rotating equipment, and electrical control panels.

Documentation & Reporting

• Create accurate test logs, configuration notes, and results summaries for engineering review.
• Update standard operating procedures, work instructions, and lab checklists.
• Communicate observations, anomalies, or equipment issues clearly and promptly.

Collaboration & Continuous Improvement

• Work closely with Mechanical, Electrical/Controls, and Systems Engineering teams to support product validation and development cycles.
• Suggest improvements to test methods, lab workflows, or equipment setup to enhance safety, efficiency, or data quality.
• Support external partners, contractors, or vendors during lab equipment installations or modifications.

Qualifications & Requirements:

Required:

• Associate degree in Mechanical Engineering Technology, Mechatronics, HVAC Technology, or similar field; or equivalent hands‑on experience.
• 1–3 years of experience in a test lab, R&D environment, or fluid‑handling system setting.
• Strong mechanical aptitude with experience working on pumps, piping, fittings, valves, and fluid systems.
• Familiarity with instrumentation such as pressure transducers, temperature sensors, flowmeters, and related DAQ equipment.
• Understanding of basic thermodynamics, heat transfer, and fluid mechanics principles.
• Ability to read engineering drawings, P&IDs, and wiring diagrams.

Preferred:

• Experience with thermal or liquid‑cooling systems in data center, electronics cooling, or HVAC applications.
• Experience with DAQ platforms (LabVIEW, PLC‑based systems, or similar).
• Knowledge of glycol‑based coolants, fluid cleanliness, filtration, and conditioning.
• Basic electrical safety knowledge related to control panels and instrumentation wiring.

Key Competencies:

• Strong attention to detail and commitment to data accuracy.
• Excellent communication and teamwork skills.
• Ability to adapt to evolving test requirements and shifting priorities.
• Strong safety mindset and ownership of lab hygiene and organization.
• Hands-on approach with a passion for workforce development.

Benefits:

• Medical, vision, and dental plans
• Short-term and long-term disability insurance
• Group term life insurance coverage
• HSA, FSA, and Dependent Care plans available
• 8 paid holidays, 4 floating holidays, and generous PTO policy
• 401k matching
• Company paid events
• Annual safety shoe allowance
• Education assistance program
