Contract duration: TBD

Hourly rate: Competitive

Help turn RF prototypes into proven hardware.

EVONA is recruiting an experienced RF Test Technician for a contract opportunity with a specialist RF and microwave electronics manufacturer.

Working directly with engineers, you’ll investigate hardware performance, carry out measurements and help resolve technical issues during product development. This opportunity suits someone who enjoys practical bench work and can contribute with limited foundational training.

Your responsibilities

• Configure RF test setups and operate network analyzers, spectrum analyzers, signal generators and power meters.
• Evaluate amplifier and circuit performance against engineering specifications.
• Investigate unexpected results and help identify component, circuit or test-setup issues.
• Support prototype builds, test fixtures and engineering-directed circuit modifications.
• Assist with tuning and RF transistor characterization.
• Record findings clearly and maintain repeatable test instructions.

What you’ll need

• 5+ years of relevant RF testing or engineering technician experience, including recent hands-on bench work.
• Practical network analyzer experience—required from day one.
• Experience in electronics manufacturing, hardware development or an engineering laboratory supporting products.
• Working knowledge of electronics, AC circuits and RF measurements.
• Ability to explain your test methods, interpret results and communicate problems to engineers.
• Availability to work onsite in East Brunswick throughout the assignment.

Experience that would help

• RF power amplifier testing or microwave tuning.
• Component-level troubleshooting and prototype circuit work.
• Familiarity with Altium.

Relevant practical experience is valued; a particular degree is not essential.
