- Interpret complex drawings, wiring diagrams, and schematics
- Identify source(s) of defect and assist in establishing root cause and corrective actions with engineering and quality
- Ensure strict compliance with all safety, quality, and regulatory standards (ESD, IPC, AS9100)
- Maintain accurate and complete production and test documentation
Required Qualifications
- Completed Electrical / Electronic coursework
- 1–3+ years of experience in electronic or aerospace manufacturing
- Strong ability to read and interpret schematics, wiring diagrams, and technical documentation
- Proven troubleshooting capability at assembly and circuit level
- Proficiency with test equipment (multimeters, power supplies, oscilloscopes)
- Demonstrated ability to work independently and drive problem resolution
Preferred Qualifications
- Associate degree in electronics, electrical engineering technology, or related field
- Experience in aerospace or other highly regulated manufacturing environments
- Experience supporting root cause / corrective action (RCCA)
