What You Will Bring:

  • Ability to read schematics and use standard electrical lab instruments.
  • Basic soldering / rework and bench debugging skills.
  • Strong data hygiene - accurate, well-organized record keeping.
  • Clear written and verbal communication; reliable and detail-oriented.

Preferred Skill:

  • Hands-on experience characterizing or benchmarking power supplies, regulators, or battery/charging systems.
  • Familiarity with electronic loads, SMUs, and precision power measurement setups.
  • Scripting for test automation or data processing (Python preferred).
  • Experience with automated power test frameworks and DAQ tooling.
  • Experience with electronics or small-form-factor hardware development.
