Senior Engineering Technician

Dean Technology, Inc.•Addison, TX

About The Position

Dean Technology, Inc. is seeking an experienced electronics technician to support its growing high-voltage power components and power supply development business. The role focuses on hands-on, component-level testing of high-voltage diode devices using standard and custom test equipment. The technician connects components to test equipment, extracts device-modeling parameters, accurately records test data, and logs results in specified electronic formats. The position supports the New Jersey Engineering Team in semiconductor diode testing, component troubleshooting, device characterization and modeling, circuit prototyping, test-fixture setup, and development of custom test equipment for customer-specific parameter extraction. The technician communicates test results to technical personnel, investigates failed units to identify root causes and corrective actions, suggests improvements, and characterizes new-product performance across varying temperatures, operational loads, and applications. The role also involves coordinating with engineers and technicians to accomplish project goals. A 90-day evaluation period applies.
