  • Proficiency with RF test equipment, including VNAs, spectrum analyzers, and oscilloscopes.
  • Understanding of semiconductor device physics and RF parameters.
  • Proficiency with test software and data logging tools such as Excel and JMP.
  • Ability to fabricate and repair cable harnesses, including soldering, crimping, and connector assembly for bench testing, debugging, and failure analysis; J-STD-001 certification is a plus.
  • Excellent manual dexterity and the ability to perform rework on microminiature electronic components under a microscope.
  • Must be able to work all shifts and be willing to work overtime and/or weekends as needed.
  • Must be able to stand for long periods, climb ladders, bend, grasp, sit, pull, push, stoop, and stretch as required.
