Skills

  • Working as a Journeyman, I am qualified to independently certify Ready for Issue (RFI) equipment I perform repairs, overhauls, installs, modifications, and maintenance on complex components and systems My keen knowledge and experience for electronics/electrical theory and principles, provides me with the superb abilities to troubleshoot and repair, down to the component level and replacing defective components using standard 2M procedures For example: a HC3B gyroscope was not rotating and switches were out After I unsealed the instrument and completely tore down the gyroscopes I send the bearings off to be checked and reworked Once the bearings where returned, I completely rebuilt the gyroscope from the inner gimble all the way to the outer shell, replacing bearings, switches and balancing the gimbles as I went Reattaching multiple brush blocks and reading out wires with a digital multimeter to make sure all connections were established I ran up the gyroscope on the specialized test set, setting all the switches and verticality Once those were set, I preformed free drift procedures by adjusting pitch and roll gimbles balances to a specific and tight tolerance After properly sealing, purging, and sending to paint, I then made the instrument ready for issue (RFI) by properly documenting work order and RFI tag Quickly established as a knowledgeable and capable technician, I qualified to work independently and have performed various technical repairs, corrosion treatment, and component replacement with a 100% quality standard and no rework Dedicated to meeting shop production goals, I am now fully qualified to work independently among predominantly higher-grade technicians
  • I use my knowledge from system specific training as well as applying electrical repair theory to make repairs I also use my knowledge of high power/high frequency RF, computers, electro/mechanics and infrared lasers I certify systems as RFI using test equipment ranging from common test equipment to system/depot particular test equipment and ATE stations I have a comprehensive knowledge of operational electronic principles such as transistors, resistors, capacitors, diodes, digital logic processors, microprocessors, non-volatile memory, interface circuits, digital transmission lines, microwaves, antennae, signal flow, amplifiers, and displays I use this knowledge to understand complex, interrelated subsystems and determine the cause of the malfunction and the factors which caused the system to fail My comprehensive knowledge also allows me to work on a variety of complex systems
  • I have a diverse knowledge of Communication, Navigation, GPS, Mission, Data, Weapons, and Electronic Countermeasures systems I also have a working knowledge of automatic test equipment and its uses for fault isolation and troubleshooting
  • I have a working knowledge of hazardous material use and disposal procedures, work process directives and instructions for Tool Control, Foreign Object Damage (FOD) prevention directives and Electro Static Discharge (ESD) procedures While preforming regular maintenance, I had a tool break Following procedures, I notified both my work leader and supervisor With all pieces accounted for, I turned in all pieces for replacement and insured proper paperwork was added to the inventory folder
  • I use computer-based manuals and assembly instructions to perform component removal and replacement I also use drawings, schematics, and block diagrams to aid in troubleshooting and diagnosis of defective components I perform repair and maintenance of systems using many general hand tools, power tools, particular tools and equipment, such as digital voltmeters, oscilloscopes, frequency meters, signal analyzers, and signal generators
