Electronics Technician

Job Title

Electronics Engineering Technician

The Electronics Engineering Technician role focuses on diagnosing and resolving electronic failures in precision test and measurement equipment. The ideal candidate will have a strong foundation in electronics theory and practical troubleshooting skills, with the ability to work down to the component level.

• Perform root‑cause analysis of electronic failures on complex products.
• Interpret and analyze schematics, block diagrams, and wiring diagrams to isolate faults.
• Troubleshoot down to the component level using structured logic and systematic approaches.
• Utilize historical failure data, internal diagnostic tools, and test results to guide repair decisions.
• Apply electrical engineering principles to identify likely failure points.
• Operate electronic test equipment (oscilloscopes, signal generators, DMMs, power supplies) to validate repairs.
• Execute functional and performance tests post‑troubleshooting to confirm compliance with specifications.
• Support production floor and engineering teams with technical evaluations and failure analysis.

• Strong understanding of analog and digital circuits, including passive and active components.
• Bachelor’s degree in Electronics or an equivalent qualification such as an Associate’s degree or military electronics experience.
• Ability to read and interpret schematics and understand circuit functionality.
• Familiarity with common failure modes in electronic assemblies.
• Proficiency in using diagnostic instruments such as oscilloscopes, multimeters, and logic analyzers.
• Knowledge of electronics fundamentals (Ohm’s Law, power supply formulas, op amp idealities, transistor formulas, etc.).
• Skill in component‑level troubleshooting.
• Logical fault isolation and pattern recognition.
• Component‑level knowledge, including the ability to identify components in schematics and understand their role in a circuit.
• Technical communication skills to explain findings clearly and relate symptoms, causes, and resolutions.

The work environment is a manufacturing and clean environment. This is an opportunity for an Engineering Technician to expand their career, or a BSEE graduate to gain experience in the industry and grow toward an EE role. Local talent to the Portland Metro area will be prioritized.
