Job description

Overview: Precise Systems is a solutions-based company focused on innovation to support warfighters, offering expert consultation on network and weapons systems acquisition, maintenance/modernization, and sustainment programs with solutions in Digital Transformation, Advanced Engineering, Physical Sciences Research, Platform Lifecycle Support, and Technical Services.

We are currently seeking a RF & Digital Circuit Technician (30084) to support our NSWC customer in Crane, IN. The candidate should be able to perform hands-on circuit analysis and troubleshooting on RF and digital electronic assemblies for DoD programs, work from schematics, diagnose complex faults, and document findings in a controlled, mission-focused environment.

Duties

• Perform circuit analysis on RF and digital circuitry, including fault isolation to component level.
• Troubleshoot and repair PCBs, modules, and cable assemblies using schematics, block diagrams, and test procedures.
• Analyze signal integrity and verify performance of digital and mixed-signal circuits (e.g., clocks, data buses, ADC/DAC paths).
• Conduct RF measurements and verification (e.g., gain, noise, frequency response, spurs/harmonics, return loss/VSWR as applicable).
• Use lab instrumentation to characterize and debug circuits: spectrum analyzer, signal generator, network analyzer, oscilloscope, DMM, power supplies, logic analyzer, etc.
• Document test results, root cause, corrective actions, and recommendations in accordance with program and quality requirements.
• Support integration/test activities and collaborate with engineering, manufacturing, and quality teams.
• Maintain configuration control and follow DoD security, safety, and handling procedures.

• RF fundamentals: impedance matching, filters, mixers, LNAs/PAs, PLLs/synthesizers, modulation basics.
• Digital fundamentals: timing/clocking, SERDES concepts, FPGA/MCU interfaces, common buses (SPI, I2C, UART).
• Experience with environmental or acceptance testing (ESS, ATP, EMI/EMC support).
• Familiarity with IPC standards (IPC-610/620/7711/7721) or J-STD-001.
• Experience working under AS9100/ISO-like quality systems or formal test documentation control.
• Demonstrated experience with RF and digital circuitry troubleshooting and measurement.
• Strong ability to interpret schematics, datasheets, and wiring diagrams; familiarity with mixed-signal systems.
• Proficiency with common RF/digital lab test equipment and measurement best practices.
• Experience isolating failures to component level and implementing repairs/rework (as appropriate to role).
• Ability to write clear technical documentation and communicate findings effectively.

Work Environment

• Secure lab/production environment supporting defense programs
• Hands-on bench work; use of ESD controls and controlled documentation practices

Schedule Requirements

• May require occasional overtime or schedule flexibility based on program needs
