Inspect and test electrical and electronic systems, such as radar navigational equipment, computer memory units, television and radio transmitters, using precision measuring instruments.

Tests and measures finished products, components, or assemblies for functioning, operation, accuracy, or assembly to verify adherence to functional specifications. Reads dials and meters to verify functioning of equipment according to specifications. Analyzes and interprets blueprints, sample data, and other materials to determine, change, or measure specifications or inspection and testing procedures. Marks items for acceptance or rejection, records test results and inspection data, and compares findings with specifications to ensure conformance to standards. Inspects materials, products, and work in progress for conformance to specifications, and adjusts process or assembly equipment to meet standards. Computes and/or calculates sample data and test results. Confers with vendors and others regarding inspection results, recommends corrective procedures, and compiles reports of results, recommendations, and needed repairs. Writes and installs computer programs to control test equipment. Installs, positions, or connects new or replacement parts, components, and instruments. Reviews maintenance records to ensure that plant equipment functions properly. Disassembles defective parts and components. Cleans and maintains test equipment and instruments to ensure proper functioning. Positions or directs other workers to position products, components, or parts, for testing. Operates or tends machinery and equipment, and uses hand tools. Examines, and adjusts or repairs, finished products, and components or parts.

Quality Control Analysis -- Conducting tests and inspections of products, services, or processes to evaluate quality or performance. Operation and Control -- Controlling operations of equipment or systems. Operation Monitoring -- Watching gauges, dials, or other indicators to make sure a machine is working properly. Troubleshooting -- Determining causes of operating errors and deciding what to do about it. Equipment Selection -- Determining the kind of tools and equipment needed to do a job. Science -- Using scientific rules and methods to solve problems. Mathematics -- Using mathematics to solve problems. Speaking -- Talking to others to convey information effectively. Reading Comprehension -- Understanding written sentences and paragraphs in work related documents. Equipment Maintenance -- Performing routine maintenance on equipment and determining when and what kind of maintenance is needed.

Near Vision -- The ability to see details at close range (within a few feet of the observer). Perceptual Speed -- The ability to quickly and accurately compare similarities and differences among sets of letters, numbers, objects, pictures, or patterns. The things to be compared may be presented at the same time or one after the other. This ability also includes comparing a presented object with a remembered object.

Control Precision -- The ability to quickly and repeatedly adjust the controls of a machine or a vehicle to exact positions. Oral Expression -- The ability to communicate information and ideas in speaking so others will understand. Problem Sensitivity -- The ability to tell when something is wrong or is likely to go wrong. It does not involve solving the problem, only recognizing there is a problem. Number Facility -- The ability to add, subtract, multiply, or divide quickly and correctly. Finger Dexterity -- The ability to make precisely coordinated movements of the fingers of one or both hands to grasp, manipulate, or assemble very small objects.

Repairing and Maintaining Electronic Equipment -- Servicing, repairing, calibrating, regulating, fine-tuning, or testing machines, devices, and equipment that operate primarily on the basis of electrical or electronic (not mechanical) principles. Monitor Processes, Materials, or Surroundings -- Monitoring and reviewing information from materials, events, or the environment, to detect or assess problems. Inspecting Equipment, Structures, or Material -- Inspecting equipment, structures, or materials to identify the cause of errors or other problems or defects. Getting Information -- Observing, receiving, and otherwise obtaining information from all relevant sources. Identifying Objects, Actions, and Events -- Identifying information by categorizing, estimating, recognizing differences or similarities, and detecting changes in circumstances or events. Processing Information -- Compiling, coding, categorizing, calculating, tabulating, auditing, or verifying information or data. Updating and Using Relevant Knowledge -- Keeping up-to-date technically and applying new knowledge to your job. Controlling Machines and Processes -- Using either control mechanisms or direct physical activity to operate machines or processes (not including computers or vehicles). Evaluating Information to Determine Compliance with Standards -- Using relevant information and individual judgment to determine whether events or processes comply with laws, regulations, or standards. Analyzing Data or Information -- Identifying the underlying principles, reasons, or facts of information by breaking down information or data into separate parts.
