About The Position

The Test Technician 2 tests and inspects products at various stages of production. The role performs functional, in-circuit, and system-level testing with minimal supervision; troubleshoots PCBAs to the component level; and helps identify test failures and corrective actions. The position works on site because the work can only be performed on site. The schedule is Monday through Friday on first shift, second shift, or a combination, with a flexible start time. The technician sets up, configures, troubleshoots, and maintains production test equipment; interprets schematics, bills of materials, and technical drawings; and provides feedback to engineering on test procedures and coverage. The role also trains Test Technician 1 employees, collaborates with the manufacturing team, maintains a clean and safe work area, and participates in continuous improvement and Lean activities. The work may be performed seated or standing. It involves occasional standing and walking, frequent use of hands, reaching, and lifting or moving items up to 10 pounds. The employee may occasionally encounter moving mechanical parts, fumes or airborne particles, and toxic or caustic chemicals; noise is usually loud. Because the position has access to controlled technology, offers are contingent on verifying that the candidate is a U.S. person or otherwise satisfies ITAR compliance requirements. Employment-based visa sponsorship is not provided.
