Technician

We are seeking an experienced manufacturing, troubleshooting and repair technician. You will be part of a cross functional team designing, building, testing, and deploying unmanned maritime sensor systems. This technician will be cross functional but the emphasis is on maritime operations.

We serve the national security market and provide hardware, software, and data solutions that span levels of classification and are intended for operational deployment. We are a rapidly growing company with a commitment to rapid development of excellent products through continuous fielding. You will be in the lab and out on the water frequently.

Responsibilities

You will work with other technicians and engineers to build, assemble, and test sensor systems.

Electrical Fabrication: Build wiring harnesses, assemble electrical components, assemble battery packs.

Mechanical Fabrication: Fabricate and assemble mechanical components and systems for sensor systems and buoys.

Compute Configuration: Basic configuration and testing of Linux based compute systems.

Testing: Test components, subsystems and systems in the lab and in the field with limited documentation and procedures.

Troubleshooting: Troubleshoot systems in the lab and the field with limited documentation and procedures. Interact with engineers to elicit required information and help improve documentation.

Maritime Operations: Organize and eventually lead maritime test operations to include deployment, maintenance, and recovery of instrumentation systems from small boats.

Engineering Interaction: Provide feedback to engineers on designs, durability, documentation, maintainability, and any other relevant aspect of the design. In the future, organize feedback from additional technicians and serve as the focal point for feedback.
