Description

AIC seeks a highly qualified and experienced Engineering Technician IV for an immediate opening with the Mobility Platform Integration team, specifically supporting the Family of Special Operations Vehicle (FOSOV) program. This position requires technical expertise in the areas of vehicle and sensor integration, electro-optical and infra-red cameras, electronic warfare systems, command and control systems, and data distribution technology. We are looking for a candidate with vehicle maintenance and mechanical knowledge to serve on a team of technicians who operate in both Continental United States (CONUS) and Outside the Continental United States (OCONUS) locations.

The teammate must be capable of high-level output centered on the integration team's ability to operate, maintain, and troubleshoot the various mobility platforms, such as the Joint Light Tactical Vehicle (JLTV), Mine-Resistant Ambush Protected All-Terrain Vehicle (M-ATV), and other government mobility systems in multiple configurations.
This individual would serve as an engineering technician, responsible for the technical integration, operational advisory, and lifecycle support of the various systems. You must have strong analytical and communication skills and work well in a dynamic, multi-disciplinary environment. This position requires a deep understanding of multiple disparate mobility platforms and sensor modalities.
It is expected that you will work cooperatively with the government customer team within the Mobility Systems Engineering Branch across four lines of operation: development engineering, sustainment engineering, logistics, and testing. The engineering technicians will provide on-site system maintenance and technical troubleshooting as well as operator support and training. Each technician will identify, source, and track replacement components and conduct functional tests to return articles to service.

Technicians will document maintenance and inspection actions while also reviewing and implementing service advisory/service bulletins to provide analysis and recommendations for changes and improvements to equipment installation, operation, modification, maintenance, training, and failure mode analysis for equipment. Candidate must be a self-starter with initiative and drive to work independently with little-to-no on-site supervision.

Key responsibilities include:

Be able to provide semi-professional technical support for engineers working in such areas as research, design, development, and testing.
Knowledge of parts, materials and processes related to electrical and mechanical components
Ability to read, understand, and interpret engineering drawings and specifications (e.g., blueprint/schematic reading, specification, change, design), technical manuals, handbooks, sketches, and block diagrams.
Ability to use various hand, power driven and specialty tools (common, RJ-11, RJ-45, pin crimpers, wire strippers, pin extractors, punch down tools, etc.) and use electronic test equipment (multi-meters and spectrum analyzers).
Must have an understanding of system troubleshooting and root cause identification, with the ability to reference technical and commercial manuals in order to identify and assist with issue resolution
Assemble system components according to engineering drawings.
Ability to install mounts, brackets, cables, connectors, electronic equipment, and labels.
Ability to annotate and modify documentation.
Be proficient in operation of the mobility system to include installation, testing, and troubleshooting of all current in-service systems.
Possess general knowledge of gyro-stabilized, multi-sensor gimbals and manufacturing of integrated mounting systems, and the Graphical User Interfaces (GUI) associated to these systems.
Perform tasks such as integration of system components, modifications to systems, and testing system…
