About the Role

The Testing Engineer is responsible for executing test programs that combine hands-on experimentation across a wide range of testing applications and environments, and rigorous data analysis. The role spans the full testing lifecycle - from planning and instrumentation setup through execution, data analysis, and results communication - while ensuring the readiness, calibration, and reliable operation of the test laboratory and supporting equipment. The engineer will also design and integrate new measurement methods and instrumentation, including the associated calibration and system validation work, and will collaborate with development, engineering, and commercial teams to deliver test results that directly inform product and system design decisions.

Responsibilities

Understand internal and external customer requirements and develop design proposals using Corning products.
Stay current with relevant industry standards, regulations, and measurement requirements.
Develop and execute product and system evaluation tests, define testing approaches, and generate tools, processes, and test sequences to repeatedly measure key product characteristics.
Take ownership of the overall condition, readiness, and functionality of the testing laboratory environment.
Maintain, troubleshoot, and calibrate complex testing instruments to ensure reliable, repeatable results, and support safe work practices throughout lab and field operations.
Operate project-specific test equipment.
Execute in-lab or real-world, in-field testing programs.
Troubleshoot testing and infrastructure issues in real time and provide prompt feedback to steer projects in the right direction.
Analyze raw test data and product characterization results, ensuring data integrity and consistency.
Verify observations against first principles and physical models, make critical observations that inform project direction, and summarize findings in clear reports and presentations for internal and customer audiences.

Requirements

Bachelors degree in Mechanical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Materials Science, or a related engineering discipline.
2–3+ years of experience in experimental testing, and data analysis.
Ability to operate, maintain, troubleshoot, and calibrate complex technical instruments and diagnostic/testing equipment.
Rigorous approach to experimental planning, execution, and data analysis.
Proficiency in data analysis and management, with experience using Excel and advanced analysis tools (e.g., MATLAB, JMP, Tableau).
Excellent communication skills, including comfort interfacing with third-party vendors and customers.
Self-motivated and comfortable taking ownership of equipment and testing operations with minimal supervision.
Ability to work in laboratory, mobile lab, and in-field testing environments.
Ability to work safely around testing equipment and instrumentation under a variety of operating conditions.
