Description of Work This is skilled work in the repair and maintenance of standard and custom electronics devices, electronics subsystems, and smaller electronics systems.

Positions may either function as agency or department-wide technicians responsible for the maintenance and repair of electronics devices, subsystems, or smaller systems; or involved in the same type of repair independently but under the general supervision of a higher level electronics technician.

Positions calibrate, perform preventive maintenance, troubleshoot, and repair electronics devices or systems made up of several interconnected devices where this interconnection complicates troubleshooting and repair procedures.

Documentation in the form of schematic diagrams, wiring diagrams, and repair manuals exist in many instances but may be fragmented or nonexistent in others.

Positions may modify existing circuitry to improve performance or affect output or lay out circuitry to provide for special functions such as the interfacing of individual devices into systems.

Reliance on existing types of circuits and circuit designs is common.

Work is evaluated through analysis of reliability of electronic repair and workability of designs and circuit modifications.

Knowledge Skills and Abilities/Management Preferences Working knowledge of electronic principles.

Working knowledge of the fundamentals of physics as applied to electronics.

Working knowledge of mathematical principles as applied to electronic circuit analysis.

Working knowledge of the uses of standard and specialized electronic testing equipment.

Ability to analyze and modify standard circuitry to improve its performance or to perform special effects.

This position requires the daily commute to the Piedmont Regional Maintenance Yard in Asheboro, NC.

This is a full-time position (40 hours per week) with State Benefits.

The work schedule is Monday - Friday and may require some weekend work and overnight travel to meet the demands of the organization.

Electronics Technician II This is highly skilled work in the maintenance and repair of complex electronic systems or developmental work in the modification, design and installation of electronic devices and systems.

Positions design and construct specialized one-of-a-kind electronic devices.

Design work is differentiated from that of the Electronics Technician I level by less reliance on standard circuitry and modification to it, and more reliance on the utilization and modification of standard circuitry to perform special, new or unusual functions.

Positions in this class may consult with faculty members desiring the construction of electronic teaching or research devices to determine project parameters.

Maintenance and repair are performed on devices designed and on electronic systems where troubleshooting difficulties are compounded by individual, complex devices which are interconnected.

Documentation in the form of schematic diagrams, wring diagrams, or repair manuals is often fragmented or non-existent.

Work is evaluated through the effectiveness of projects designed and constructed, and analysis of equipment reliability.

Electronics Technician III This is supervisory and or specialized work in the repair and maintenance of highly complex electronics systems, and the design and modification of complex electronic devices which interface with systems.

Some roles may specialize in the installation, maintenance, and operation of radio equipment in a statewide communications system.

Positions directly supervise journeyman level technicians in resolving moderate to highly complex tasks.

Work involves project management, workload distribution, and associated supervisory responsibilities to ensure work is completed timely and accurately.

Positions also perform calibration, preventive maintenance, troubleshooting, and repair of the most complex or novel electronics systems and devices.

Electronics device work usually involves the design and testing of prototypes that perform novel and innovative functions.

Unique circuit design is common at this level.

Positions have ultimate responsibility for ensuring systems and devices are functioning properly on a statewide or large regional level.

Errors in project management could result in inoperable systems that negatively impact agency operations or create significant public safety concerns.

Salary Range per Classifications - Electronics Technician I $39,671.00 - $69,426.00 Electronics Technician II $ 43,738.00 - $ 76,542.00 Electronics Technician III $ 48,222.00 - $ 84,388.00 Minimum Education and Experience Some state job postings say you can qualify by an "equivalent combination of education and experience." If that language appears below, then you may qualify through EITHER years of education OR years of directly related experience, OR a combination of both.

See the Education and Experience Equivalency Guide for details.

Associate's degree in electronics from an appropriately accredited institution and one year of experience in the repair and maintenance of a variety of specialized electronic devices, preferably including some responsibility for circuit modification; or an equivalent combination of training and experience.

Based on the nature of work performed, may require appropriate licensure by the governing board or commission.
