Bolton, United Kingdom Certain Advantage Full time

Certain Advantage is a world class defence organisation based in Bolton, Lancashire, and we are currently seeking a skilled Electronics Test Specialist to join our team on a 12 month contract.

The ideal candidate will have a strong background in RF/Microwave skills or substantial experience in Test, Diagnostics, Repair Engineering.

As an Electronics Test Specialist, you will be responsible for the production test and diagnostics of complex systems at system and subsystem level, including the testing of complex electronic equipment and diagnosis of production test failures down to component level.

You will also be responsible for identifying corrective action in a timely manner, allowing manufacturing to continue production in line with programme. Additionally, you will provide technical support to test operators to facilitate the efficient throughput of prime hardware during production, and assess related test equipment issues, directing support services to resolve equipment failures.

A key aspect of this role is the evaluation of technical problems to develop proposals for investigations and corrective actions, including process improvements.
