Purpose Of The Role
You will be directly responsible for turning design verification requirements into executable test plans and deriving and reporting results from test data. You will bring expertise and prior experience to advise on the design of experiments and statistical confidence of test results and, where applicable, use machine learning to advance verification processes and optimise the operations and output of the Test Department. The role will directly support the development of its solid oxide technology by Identifying, developing, and implementing end-to-end applications of data science and machine learning techniques to optimise the operations of the Test Department. Extracting insights and improvements in data quality from test stand data as well as advancing the continuous validation of fuel cell stack models used for product development.
Key Accountabilities
- Translate design verification and product validation requirements supplied by product development teams into executable test plans
- Apply advanced statistical methods such as design of experiments and hypothesis testing to assess and optimise test plan design
- Apply advanced data analysis and machine learning techniques to process test data and derive statistically sound test results
- Advise the processes of design verification and product validation on best statistical practices and continuous improvement of the quality of test measurement data
- Collaborate with the Data Analysis team to develop and maintain software tools and databases for test data analysis
- Communicate test plans and test results to project teams in presentations and reports
- Support the development of a business-wide cloud data management platform
- Develop and deploy data visualisation tools (dashboards, apps) to ensure teams throughout the business have the information they need
