About The Position

We are seeking an experienced Senior Avionics Technician to perform deep-dive analysis and advanced troubleshooting of complex avionics and electronic systems. The primary focus of this role is board-level and component-level diagnostics, including Fourier analysis, to identify and resolve faults. This position plays a critical role in validating components and designs before they are handed off to the design/engineering team for implementation.

Requirements

• Minimum of 5 years of hands-on experience in avionics/electronics troubleshooting and repair with strong emphasis on board-level and component-level diagnostics.
• Demonstrated expertise in board-level Fourier analysis and advanced signal analysis techniques.
• Proficiency with sophisticated test equipment: oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, logic analyzers, and related tools.
• Solid understanding of analog/digital circuits, RF systems, power electronics, and avionics architectures.
• Strong ability to interpret schematics, technical manuals, and wiring diagrams.

Nice To Haves

• AS or AAS degree in Electrical Engineering/Technology
• Avionics/Electrical lab testing experience
• Experience supporting both maintenance and engineering/design teams in an aviation environment.
• Background in aircraft modification or STC projects.

Responsibilities

• Perform in-depth, component level analysis and troubleshooting of avionics and electronic systems
• Conduct board-level Fourier analysis (FFT/spectral analysis) and signal integrity evaluations using advanced test equipment to diagnose complex, intermittent, or elusive faults.
• Validate and verify electronic components, circuits, and assemblies for performance, reliability, and specification compliance.
• Provide detailed technical findings, root cause analysis, and recommendations to the design team after verification.
• Review and validate proposed component selections and design changes prior to formal design handoff.
• Utilize high-end diagnostic tools including oscilloscopes (with FFT functions), spectrum analyzers, logic analyzers, and signal generators.
• Document all analysis, test results, measurements, and findings with high accuracy for engineering review and regulatory compliance.
• Support root cause corrective action (RCCA) processes for recurring avionics issues.
• Collaborate closely with design engineers to ensure smooth transition from troubleshooting/verification to design phase.

Benefits

• health insurance
• retirement plans
• opportunities for professional development
• Highly competitive equity grants are included in most offers and are considered part of Mach’s total compensation package.
