  • Experience troubleshooting systems involving electrical and mechanical components  

  • Familiarity with benchtop electrical equipment such as multimeters, oscilloscopes, power supplies and electronic loads  

  • Ability to read and interpret electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, mechanical drawings and test procedures  

  • Understanding of laboratory safety practices, including the safe operation of high-voltage or high-power equipment  

  • Demonstrated ownership, reliable execution, clear documentation, and effective collaboration with engineers, technicians and cross-functional partners
