Refine dedicated workstations for each test. Understand each step of the test (from sample preparation to test execution / data collection and cleanup) and identify issues (eg slowdowns, inconsistency in results). Prioritize and implement solutions to these issues.
Consider and implement automated approaches to testing such as robotic sample loading, multiplexing, or automated forms of post-test inspection.
In addition to established tests, modify copies of test rigs for experimental development.
Create new systems to perform abusive tests on cells and coupons with Tesla product-representative thermal and structural boundary conditions.
Characterize variation in results from existing test rigs, examples being short circuit, crush, and provoked thermal runaway. Investigate discrepancies in test results as they occur between our in-house tests and supplier test results as well as between different implementations of the same Test Systems in our lab.
Write and maintain standard operating procedures for test equipment. Train technicians on new equipment and incorporate user feedback (design for usability, safety, ergonomics).
Work closely in lab with technicians to fabricate, install, and validate new test equipment as well as repair and debug issues with existing equipment.
Create engineering drawings and work with internal and external prototype shops to get parts fabricated for new and existing Test Systems.
