Why Join Resonate Testing?
At Resonate Testing, no two days are the same. We’re an independent engineering test house located in Newry, Northern Ireland, where real products get pushed, shaken, heated, cooled, and challenged – all under one roof.
This is a rare opportunity to gain hands-on experience supporting real testing programmes for high-tech industries, such as space, aerospace, automative, medical, mechanical and electronics.
You’ll work alongside experienced engineers and technicians on projects that push the limits, from components heading into orbit to products undergoing intense fire and environmental testing.
Full training will be provided.
