CLASS SERIES CONCEPT<\/strong><\/p>\n

Following requirements and specifications from engineers or scientists, perform engineering technician work designing, developing, fabricating, modifying, assembling and repairing various mechanical, electro-mechanical, agricultural, hydraulic, pneumatic, or electronic instruments, apparatus and equipment within an engineering, scientific, or instructional application.<\/p>\n

This series is distinguished from the Electronics Technician series by spending a majority of time in the design, development, and fabrication of specialized engineering, scientific, or instructional instruments, apparatus and equipment.<\/p>\n

This series is distinguished from the Computer Maintenance Technician series by maintaining and\/or repairing computer or other microprocessor-controlled integrated digital equipment which is integrated or interfaced with specialized engineering, scientific, or instructional instruments, apparatus and equipment.<\/p>\n

BASIC FUNCTION<\/strong><\/p>\n

Assist in the design and development, and perform skilled and precision work constructing, installing, calibrating, and testing instruments, apparatus, and equipment within a scientific, instructional or engineering application.<\/p>\n

DISTINGUISHING CHARACTERISTICS<\/strong><\/p>\n

Under general supervision, independently perform basic engineering technician tasks such as: assisting in the design and development of apparatus; performing skilled, precision machine tool work constructing apparatus; modifying existing equipment for specific requirements; assisting investigators set up experiments and acquire data.<\/p>\n

TYPICAL WORK<\/strong><\/p>\n

Assist in the development and design of apparatus as set forth by the engineer or scientist in sketches, oral instructions, blueprints, or CAD programs;<\/p>\n

Perform skilled and precision work on the layout, construction and\/or assembly of instruments and equipment such as strain gauge holders, amplifiers, calibrators, notch filters, transducers; generate block diagrams, design circuits and circuit board layout, write software as needed, and select components; build (including enclosure(s)) using electronic, machine and hand tools such as drill presses; soldering guns; gas acetylene, and arc welders; lathes; grinders, etc.;<\/p>\n

Evaluate suitability of commercially-manufactured equipment for use in research requirements;<\/p>\n

Modify existing equipment such as analog simulators, electrophoresis apparatus, printers, or digital audio processors to meet specialized requirements;<\/p>\n

Install equipment and test for proper operation; adjust and calibrate; troubleshoot and repair equipment malfunction(s) to system, board, or component level, using diagnostic software as needed;<\/p>\n

Install, level and tram lathes and other machine tools;<\/p>\n

Order and maintain an inventory of commonly used tools and supplies;<\/p>\n

Assist investigators, engineers and\/or scientists in the setup of experiments and the acquisition of data;<\/p>\n

Instruct laboratory personnel in the assembly, operation, and maintenance of experimental apparatus and instruments;<\/p>\n

May direct the work of others;<\/p>\n

Perform related duties as required.<\/p>\n

MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS<\/strong><\/p>\n

Three years of experience as an electronics technician, instrument maker, or engineering assistant. Related course work or technical school training may substitute year-for-year for up to two years of work experience.<\/p>\n

OR<\/p>\n

One year of experience as an Electronics Technician I OR equivalent education\/experience.<\/p>\n

Equivalent education and\/or experience may substitute for minimum qualifications except when there are legal requirements, such as a license, certification, and\/or registration.<\/p>\n
