Manufacturing Technician

Latitude Inc • Reston, VA • 2h ago

A global manufacturer and technology leader in color measurement solutions is seeking a Manufacturing Engineering Technician to join its onsite Manufacturing Engineering team. This role is highly technical and engineering-focused, supporting manufacturing quality, incoming inspection, and complex electromechanical troubleshooting. The ideal candidate has strong electronics expertise at the component and PCB level and is comfortable working deep into circuit analysis rather than high-level assembly or installation.

Key Responsibilities

Perform mechanical, optical, and electrical inspection, testing, and troubleshooting on incoming instruments, parts, and components

Inspect and evaluate electro-mechanical components and assemblies using defined test procedures and electronic test equipment

Troubleshoot complex systemic failures and design issues at the PCB and component level using root cause analysis

Rework and repair non-conforming materials, including precision soldering and PCB rework

Build and set up test fixtures and test equipment; download software and execute reliability and performance testing

Verify accuracy and integrity of test data and results

Interpret CAD drawings, wiring diagrams, schematics, and engineering documentation

Investigate vendor-related issues and provide technical feedback to improve quality and performance

Recommend design, process, or test improvements based on gap analysis

Support Manufacturing Technicians with testing, calibration, and troubleshooting activities

Train and mentor associates as needed

Document test data, serial numbers, ECNs, SOP adherence, rework, and process efficiencies

Support Quality Assurance initiatives, continuous improvement projects, and compliance with quality standards

Maintain organized, clean, and safe work areas and follow job safety requirements

What the Hiring Team Is Specifically Looking For

Advanced electronics knowledge at the component level

Strong ability to analyze circuits, understand component behavior, and troubleshoot PCBs in and out of circuit

Hands-on experience using electronic diagnostic tools such as multimeters, oscilloscopes, and similar equipment

Strong soldering and rework skills are a key requirement for this role

This position is more engineering-oriented than traditional technician or assembly roles and requires deep electronics expertise

rather than large-scale module installation

Required Qualifications

OR vocational or trade school electronics training with 2+ years of relevant hands-on experience

OR equivalent combination of education and experience in manufacturing engineering or advanced electronics roles
