About the role
We file this job under Data Scientist, by the work the posting describes.
Data scientists use statistics and models to answer harder questions, such as whether a change worked, what demand will look like next quarter, or which customers are likely to leave.
Postings usually ask for Python or R, SQL, statistics, experiment design and common machine learning methods.
Unlike an ML engineer, a data scientist's main output is often an analysis or a first model, not software running inside a product.
Reporting to the Manager, he/she will be involved in carrying out Testing Projects focused mainly on the study of the structural durability and abuse performance of the vehicles.
The Test Engineer will be in charge of the execution of the testing projects which he/she will be assigned for and will act as window person with the client. The successful Test Engineer has a self-starting mentality, enjoys working hands-on on a variety of projects simultaneously and understands how to achieve a high level of "client" satisfaction from technical and quality points of view.
In particular, the Test Engineer will be in charge of the following responsibilities and duties:
Vehicle Instrumentation Set-Up Activities:
Installation and configuration of sensors and measurement equipment prior to Road Load Data Acquisition (RLDA) campaigns using sensors like wheel force transducers, accelerometers, strain gages, string potentiometers etc. and data loggers systems.
Functional checks of sensors and acquisition systems (HW + SW).
Execution of preliminary measurement checks according to agreed procedures.
Road Load Data Acquisition:
Development and execution of the testing campaign, including test matrix definition, data download, sorting, and validation.
Instrumentation debugging and issue resolution during RLDA activities.
Analyse the collected test data and check for data integrity.
Work in close collaboration with vehicle technicians, instrumentation and design teams.
Write test reports to document results of testing and to communicate issues found.
Maintain a clean and organized work environment.
The role will be based onsite in the Headquarters of one IDIADA's client close to Bologna (Italy).
