• Coordinate test setup, instrumentation, and configuration with laboratory and test engineering teams
• Ensure proper configuration management of all test hardware, software, and documentation

Data Analysis & Reporting

• Examine test results, generate comprehensive test reports, and document anomalies or deviations from expected performance
• Collaborate with engineering teams to resolve issues, plan retests, and achieve verification closure
• Maintain traceability and evidence of compliance in requirements management systems (e.g., DOORS, RV&S, 3DX)

Systems & Requirements Integration

• Maintain full traceability of requirements throughout the verification lifecycle
• Support technical reviews such as PDR, CDR, TRR, and qualification reviews
