Production Test Technician
SUMMARY: The Production Test Technician is a highly technical role responsible for the assembly, integration, and component-level testing of computer-based electronics and aerospace hardware. Operating in a fast-paced production environment with minimal supervision, this position applies circuit theory and component-level diagnostics to test, troubleshoot, and repair complex analog and digital circuit boards. The ideal candidate utilizes standard electronics test benches and works directly with advanced NX6 platform systems to ensure all products meet rigorous aerospace quality and reliability standards.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:
Testing, Repair & Diagnostics
- Testing circuit boards and assemblies using specialized tools like oscilloscopes, digital meters, and power supplies.
- Diagnose, troubleshot, and execute component-level electronics repair on a variety of complex circuit boards.
- Apply hands-on analog and digital experience to evaluate and confirm circuit behavior against engineering theory.
- Support test program implementation and equipment integration utilizing the NX6 system matrix and automated test architecture.
- Maintain compliance with strict Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) controlled environment standards.
Production Operations & Logistics
- Review and interpret Bills of Materials (BOMs), electrical schematics, and technical documents
- Manage inventory discrepancies and coordinate "Rush" requests or daily production expedites.
- Track shipment and receipt data to answer internal and customer inquiries regarding product delivery.
- Execute miscellaneous projects and manufacturing tasks as assigned by team leadership.
Collaboration & Communication
- Multi-task efficiently in a high-pressure, fast-paced manufacturing environment.
- Navigate stressful or high-stakes production deadlines with professionalism and emotional intelligence.
- Collaborate fluidly within a team structure while maintaining the ability to work independently.
