Electronics Technician

Electronics Technician

The Electronics Technician role focuses on diagnosing and resolving electronic failures in precision test and measurement equipment. You apply a strong foundation in electronics theory and practical troubleshooting skills to work down to the component level, using structured logic rather than trial-and-error. You use schematics, diagnostic tools, and test equipment to identify root causes, perform repairs, and verify that products meet performance specifications while supporting both production and engineering teams.

• Diagnose electronic failures on complex precision test and measurement products, focusing on root-cause analysis rather than simple symptom treatment.
• Interpret and analyze schematics, block diagrams, and wiring diagrams to understand circuit functionality and isolate faults accurately.
• Troubleshoot down to the component level using structured logic, systematic approaches, and pattern recognition to identify why a circuit or assembly failed.
• Utilize historical failure data, internal diagnostic tools, and test results to guide troubleshooting and repair decisions.
• Apply electrical engineering principles and electronics fundamentals to identify likely failure points in analog and digital circuits.
• Operate electronic test equipment such as oscilloscopes, signal generators, digital multimeters, logic analyzers, and power supplies to validate repairs.
• Execute functional and performance tests after troubleshooting to verify pass/fail outcomes and confirm compliance with product specifications.
• Support production floor and engineering teams with technical evaluations, failure analysis, and resolution of product issues.
• Perform debugging and calibration tasks on electronic assemblies and circuit boards as part of the repair and verification process.
• Communicate technical findings clearly, explaining symptoms, root causes, and resolutions in a logical sequence.
• Participate in an electronics technical evaluation that assesses component identification, schematic interpretation, and basic circuit troubleshooting.
• Use logical fault isolation techniques to determine what to check first in a failing circuit and identify likely failure points.
• Identify electronic components in schematics and explain their role and interaction within the circuit.
• Contribute to ongoing projects and new work by providing reliable, high-quality troubleshooting and test support.

• Strong understanding of analog and digital circuits, including passive and active components.
• Ability to read, interpret, and explain schematics, block diagrams, and wiring diagrams, and understand how circuit parts interact.
• Demonstrated proficiency in troubleshooting down to the component level, finding the solution and fixing the problem rather than replacing assemblies blindly.
• Familiarity with common failure modes in electronic assemblies and the ability to use pattern recognition to explain why something failed.
• Proficiency in using diagnostic instruments such as oscilloscopes, multimeters, logic analyzers, signal generators, and power supplies.
• Solid electronics fundamentals and ability to understand circuit operation in practical, applied scenarios.
• Logical fault isolation skills, including the ability to identify likely failure points and determine what to check first in a failing circuit.
• Clear technical communication skills, with the ability to relate symptoms to causes and resolutions in a structured manner.
• Experience with electronics testing, debugging, calibration, and working on circuit boards.
• Bachelors degree in Electronics, or an Associates degree in Electronics, or a military electronics background.
• Ability and willingness to complete an electronics test or technical evaluation focused on component identification, schematic interpretation, and circuit troubleshooting.

• Experience as a field service technician with strong electronics troubleshooting skills is highly relevant.
• Background as a device or equipment technician working on electronic systems is beneficial.
• Comfort supporting production environments and collaborating with engineering teams on failure analysis and technical evaluations.
• Ability to work effectively in applied electronics scenarios where practical reasoning is more important than memorization.
• Capability to explain circuit behavior and failure mechanisms to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Interest in long-term opportunities, with an initial contract…
