Electronics Test Lab Technician-2

The Electronics Test Lab Technician supports verification and validation activities of electronic products, focusing primarily on hardware testing at open-box level (PCBAs and electronic subassemblies).
The role includes designing, executing and documenting hardware-level functional and electrical tests, based on defined technical and quality requirements, and under supervision and approval of the Test Lab Supervisor.

• Design and develop hardware-level functional and electrical tests for PCBAs and open-box electronic modules, based on defined requirements, specifications and schematics.

• Define and document test procedures, test sequences and acceptance criteria, ensuring alignment with applicable specifications and internal requirements, and subject to review and approval.

• Execute electrical and functional hardware tests, including:

  • Supply voltage and current consumption checks.

  • Signal presence and basic signal behavior verification.

• Configure products under test, including electrical connections, interfaces and test fixtures.

• Operate standard laboratory equipment (power supplies, multimeters, oscilloscopes, electronic loads).

• Detect and document hardware-related anomalies and deviations during testing.

• Perform first-level electrical and functional analysis (measurements, comparisons against specifications, symptom identification).

• Support issue investigation in collaboration with engineering and quality teams, escalating findings with structured technical evidence.

• Prepare and maintain test documentation and reports, ensuring traceability of test setups, products and results.

• Support test bench setup and ensure correct use of laboratory equipment.

• Maintain a safe, organized laboratory environment in line with safety rules.

Soldering and PCBA rework

• Valued experience in electronic soldering (THT and basic SMD) and basic PCBA rework activities, following approved instructions and standards.

• Ability to perform functional verification after rework activities.

Electronic CAD tools

• Ability to navigate and interpret electronic schematics and PCBA designs using CAD tools such as Altium Designer, Mentor Graphics, or equivalent.

• Focused on analysis and troubleshooting support, not circuit design.

Basic PCBA layout knowledge

• Basic understanding of PCBA layout concepts (layers, routing, ground planes, test points) to support hardware testing and analysis activities.

Technical English

• Technical English level sufficient to read and understand datasheets, specifications, and test procedures, and to communicate basic technical information.

Laboratory instrumentation – interpretation

• Ability to perform and interpret hardware-level electrical measurements (waveforms, current consumption behavior, basic signal quality).

• Correct use of probes and measurement techniques.

Contribution to test improvement

• Participation in continuous improvement of test procedures and laboratory setups, providing technical feedback based on hands-on testing experience.

Required Education

• Higher Vocational Training (Ciclo Formativo de Grado Superior) in:

  • Industrial Electronics

  • Automation and Industrial Electronics

  • Mechatronics

  • Telecommunications Electronics
    (or equivalent technical qualification)
