  • Knowledge of PCB design standards and best practices, including IPC and JEDEC standards
  • Electronics lab experience: familiarity with equipment such as multimeters, oscilloscopes, signal generators, and power supplies, and using such equipment to debug electronics hardware
  • Proficiency with basic soldering and crimping tools; SMT soldering skills are a plus
  • Excellent written and oral communication skills
  • Must be a self-starter, able to decompose moderately complex projects into individual tasks and processes


Preferred Qualifications
