Lays out, fabricates, modifies, assembles and proves‑in electronic, electromechanical, pressure, vacuum, computerized, environmental, and scientific test equipment and systems.

• Lays out, fabricates, modifies, assembles and proves‑in electronic, electromechanical, pressure, vacuum, computerized, environmental, and scientific test equipment and systems.
• Assembles printed circuit boards and vector boards used in the manufacture of test equipment.
• Installs, maintains, inspects for conformance to specifications, services, troubleshoots and calibrates electronic, electromechanical, pressure, vacuum, environmental, computerized and scientific test equipment and systems, including electrical service boxes (inside test equipment), laboratory instruments, meters, lasers, computers and data acquisition systems.
• Test equipment is defined as equipment or gaging which electrically or electromechanically accepts the product or is used in the manufacture of the product.
• May perform related tasks as necessary in the completion of the employee's primary work assignment in the Electronic Equipment Technician classification.
• Performs complete check‑out of testers and effects calibration.
• Performs complete evaluation of new or modified equipment and determines its acceptability. Determines that test equipment meets design intent and functions properly.
• Performs rework and replacement of components. Performs evaluation on test equipment as directed by the engineer and all evaluation on consecutive out‑of‑tolerance calibration readings.
• May write and use programs to assist in the prove‑in, evaluation, calibration, maintenance and repair of test equipment.
• Makes any necessary setups and must be familiar with and apply electrical and electronic circuitry techniques, principles, formulae and troubleshooting techniques.
• Work is characterized by extremely critical calibration requirements and lack of definite procedural information which necessitates development of special servicing techniques.
• Works from schematics, wiring diagrams, wire running lists, sketches, engineering change notices, drawings, sheet metal layouts, machine drawings and other written or verbal instructions.
• Results require interpretation and analysis.
• Normally responsible for verifying own work for conformance to standards and specifications furnished for the operation and will be required to perform rework.
• Responsible for maintaining and repairing standards used in the calibration of test equipment, meters, special resistors, engineering and quality laboratory instruments.
