Set up or devise standard or automated test equipment to conduct functional, operational, environmental, and life tests to evaluate performance and reliability of prototype or production assemblies. Analyze test results and repair or adjust assemblies per analysis. Recommend corrections and improvements to test procedures to simplify testing and/or assembly processes

Major Responsibilities Include:

• Conduct functional tests to measure the performance of production electronic systems, assemblies, and sub-assemblies.
• Test commercial and complex (mil-spec) electronic assemblies with pre-production or prototype documentation.
• Compare test results with specifications and accurately record test data.
• Analyze defective units to determine root cause of failure.
• Help develop processes, tooling and fixtures as required.
• Ensure that all test equipment calibration requirements are maintained.
• Effectively manage time, and complete all tasks as assigned by the supervisor.

Educational Experience:

BS or Associate’s degree (A.A.) from accredited college or technical school in Electrical Engineering or similar discipline (EE/EET/ME preferred), or equivalent military trainingin Electronics Engineering Technology or related field, and five years related experience.

• Strong component-level troubleshooting skills.
• Must have experience with high speed digital oscilloscopes and/or protocol analyzers.
• Knowledge of SERDES verification and qualification is a plus.
• Knowledge of electrical test methodology (e.g., stand alone bench, automated, functional test), planning, procedures, equipment (e.g., multimeter, oscilloscope, bus analyzer, automated test systems) and result validation criteria (e.g., pass/fail, control limits, tolerances).
• Knowledge of computer hardware and software components (e.g., processors, memory, interfaces, high order languages), and characteristics (e.g., throughput, processing architecture, timing, capacity).
• Knowledge of Microsoft Office Suite (Excel, Word).
• Hand- soldering and rework experience is highly desirable. 
• A general understanding of the production of printed wiring assemblies is desirable but not required. 

Other Requirements:

Must be extensively familiar with AT LEAST three of the following disciplines: (a) solid state electronics, (b) microprocessor applications, (c) digital logic, (d) digital design, (e) communications systems, (f) any other comparable area of fundamental engineering, science, or physics (such as optics, heat transfer, soil mechanics, or electronics). Must be able to multitask in a fast-paced environment effectively. Must have a positive attitude with a desire to excel in a team-oriented culture. Availability and willingness to work alternate shifts as necessary is required.

Physical Demands

Must have good color perception, eyesight, and the ability to effectively use magnification aids such as binocular microscopes and related test equipment.
