Mach The Avionics Specialist at Mach performs deep-dive analysis and troubleshooting of avionics and electronic systems at the board and component level. The role includes Fourier analysis and validation of components before design handoff.
Responsibilities
We are seeking an experienced Avionics Specialist to perform deep-dive analysis and advanced troubleshooting of complex avionics and electronic systems. The primary focus of this role is board-level and component-level diagnostics, including Fourier analysis, to identify and resolve faults. This position plays a critical role in validating components and designs before they are handed off to the design/engineering team for implementation.
Perform in-depth, component level analysis and troubleshooting of avionics and electronic systems
Conduct board-level Fourier analysis (FFT/spectral analysis) and signal integrity evaluations using advanced test equipment to diagnose complex, intermittent, or elusive faults.
Validate and verify electronic components, circuits, and assemblies for performance, reliability, and specification compliance.
Provide detailed technical findings, root cause analysis, and recommendations to the design team after verification.
Review and validate proposed component selections and design changes prior to formal design handoff.
Utilize high-end diagnostic tools including oscilloscopes (with FFT functions), spectrum analyzers, logic analyzers, and signal generators.
Document all analysis, test results, measurements, and findings with high accuracy for engineering review and regulatory compliance.
Support root cause corrective action (RCCA) processes for recurring avionics issues.
Collaborate closely with design engineers to ensure smooth transition from troubleshooting/verification to design phase.
Qualification
Strong ability to interpret schematics
Required
Minimum of 2 years of hands-on experience in avionics/electronics troubleshooting and repair with strong emphasis on board-level and component-level diagnostics.
Demonstrated expertise in board-level Fourier analysis and advanced signal analysis techniques.
Proficiency with sophisticated test equipment: oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, logic analyzers, and related tools.
Solid understanding of analog/digital circuits, RF systems, power electronics, and avionics architectures.
Strong ability to interpret schematics, technical manuals, and wiring diagrams.
Preferred
AS or AAS degree in Electrical Engineering/Technology
Avionics/Electrical lab testing experience
Experience supporting both maintenance and engineering/design teams in an aviation environment.
Background in aircraft modification or STC projects.
