A specialist technology company in the energy sector, developing wireless communication, signal-processing and high-reliability electronics for extreme environments, is looking for a Senior Electronics Test Technician to join its team in Aberdeen.
This is a hands-on senior role for someone who enjoys ownership. You'll lead projects on your own initiative, solve problems where there isn't always a ready answer, and help create the test procedures the team will use going forward.

Lead the build, test, maintenance and repair of electronic and electromechanical equipment and systems
Build and test electronic boards, assemblies and tools to meet production schedules
Write and develop test procedures, parts lists and documentation from scratch, working closely with the engineering team
Support R&D engineers with prototype equipment for experimentation and test
Maintain accurate records for downhole tools and surface equipment
Advise on spares, consumables and equipment requirements
Work professionally with external stakeholders on projects
Travel occasionally to support equipment overseas
What you'll bring
HNC in Electronics or equivalent (HND or degree advantageous)
IPC or equivalent high-reliability soldering and electronic assembly training
Excellent soldering and PCB wiring skills

Experience with high-reliability products, e.g. defence, aerospace, oil & gas, medical or space
Strong fault finding and repair skills at board and component level
Confidence working independently, using your own initiative to take projects forward
Excellent written communication: you'll be writing procedures others rely on
Nice to have
Experience maintaining or manufacturing downhole tools
C/C++ or Visual Basic
Why apply?  You'll join a small, innovative team where your work has real impact, with the chance to shape how testing is done rather than just following existing procedures.
