Electronics Technician Maintenance III

Amentum•Panama City, FL

About The Position

The Electronics Technician Maintenance III applies advanced technical knowledge to solve unusually complex electronics problems that cannot typically be resolved solely by consulting manufacturers’ manuals or similar documents. Work includes locating and assessing circuitry, evaluating electromagnetic radiation, isolating malfunctions, incorporating engineering changes, analyzing circuits and waveforms, and tracing signal flow. The technician uses common and complex electronic test instruments and computer control equipment. Work may be reviewed by a Supervisor for general compliance with accepted practices, and the technician provides technical guidance to lower-level technicians. The role maintains, repairs, and installs electronic equipment and related devices, including transmitting and receiving equipment, computers and terminals, industrial measuring and control equipment, and calibration devices. The technician applies electronics principles to diagnose malfunctions and restore equipment operation, and may perform other position-related duties as assigned. The position may require the ability to pass and maintain a Security Clearance and may require travel. Work takes place in a shop environment that is moderately lighted, heated, and ventilated. The work includes exposure to fumes, tools, moving vehicles and mechanical parts, heat, vibration, noise, and other hazards. The employee performs a range of standing, walking, handling, reaching, and bending or crouching activities; frequently lifts 40–45 pounds and occasionally lifts more than 50 pounds. Employees are expected to follow safety, quality, and procedure requirements, including applicable training, emergency-response, and customer-contract requirements.
