Printed Circuit Board Technician

Fantastic fun company to work for is looking for a new Printed Circuit Board Technician

This role offers a great opportunity to participate in the development of next-generation, intelligent, control systems for commercial and industrial applications. The ideal candidate will have a demonstrated history of supporting electrical engineering design teams in the creation of digital and analog circuit designs. 

Managers mouth to your ears:

Please dig into these two topics.

How is their analog circuit knowledge (transistor based and op-amp based)?Surface mount soldering capabilities (do they have experience with very fine pitch Integrated Circuits (0.5mm pitch), and do they have experience with components that are 0402 and smaller?)

I will be asking about those details to the candidates, and if they are eventually brought on-site, they would be asked to solder very small components, and we have some detailed analog circuit questions both transistor based, op-amp based, and comparator based.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

• Perform routine SMT soldering and desoldering of fine pitch electronic components on Printed Circuit Boards under a microscope.
• Inspect PCB Electronic Assemblies for defects; solder quality, parts alignment, missing parts, visual damage, etc
• Test PCBs for failures; Repair / Rework defects
• Assist in building and testing products the team designs
• Ensure laboratory readiness in support of all product development activities
• Manage inventory and replenishment of laboratory supplies
• Perform system integration and validation testing activities, including verification of interoperability
• Measurement data collection and reporting for products in development
• Provide support for the product at customer sites and manufacturing locations

• 5+ years experience as a Technician (Lab Technician, Hardware Technician, RF Technician, Engineering Technician)
• Must have experience working alongside engineers in an engineering/electronics lab.
• Must have some wireless/RF-based experience
• Must be able to identify electronic components, polarity, values
• Must have previous work-related experience in fine-pitch SMT soldering on PCB's in an electronics manufacturing environment
• Ability to solder under a microscope is required
  * Experience with board bring-up and component-level debugging
• Certification and/or experience working to IPC-610 standards are preferred
• Experience configuring and testing wireless technologies such as BTLE, Zigbee, WiFi, etc
• Experience working with test and diagnostic equipment including, but not limited to, oscilloscopes, DMMs, vector network analyzers, spectrum analyzers and signal generators
• Experience using MS Office Suite including Outlook, Excel (for tracking, analysis, plotting), Powerpoint
• Ability to self-identify and prioritize tasks to meet schedule deadlines
• Must have good communication skills and have the ability to follow verbal and written instructions in English
• Strong project management skills - demonstrated ability to take projects from start to finish with minimal supervision
• Willingness to participate in field trials and onsite debugging (some travel required - 5-10% max)
• Willingness to roll up sleeves and drive things to completion
• Experience using Labview is a plus
• Experience applying Lean 5S
