Test Technician in Billingshurst

We are recruiting for a Test Technician to join a well-established business based in Billingshurst. This is a fantastic opportunity for someone with electrical, electronics or product testing experience who enjoys a practical, hands-on role and is looking to develop their technical skills within a supportive manufacturing environment. You do not need to be a highly experienced Test Engineer for this position. However, you will need some previous practical experience within electrical/electronic testing, fault finding, manufacturing or a similar technical environment.

The Role

• Working as part of the technical and quality team, you will be responsible for carrying out electrical and functional testing on products and electronic assemblies, ensuring they meet the required quality and safety standards.
• You will also assist with fault finding, technical investigations and product improvement activities, working closely with colleagues across production, quality and engineering.

Key Responsibilities

• Carry out electrical and functional testing of products and electronic assemblies.
• Complete routine production testing in line with quality and safety standards.
• Follow established test procedures and technical work instructions.
• Accurately record test results and maintain relevant documentation.
• Identify and report faults or product failures.
• Assist with fault diagnosis and investigation of failed products.
• Support root cause analysis relating to product failures and quality returns.
• Work with colleagues to resolve testing issues and improve product reliability.
• Assist with the testing of new or modified products.
• Provide technical feedback on assembly or wiring issues identified during testing.
• Support specialist customer orders and product conversions where required.
• Contribute to improvements in testing procedures, efficiency and product quality.
• Assist with documentation relating to product compliance and certification.

About You

• We are looking for someone who has previous experience within an electrical, electronics, testing or manufacturing environment.
• Some practical electrical testing and fault-finding experience.
• The ability to follow technical procedures and work instructions.
• Good attention to detail and a strong awareness of quality.
• A practical and hands-on approach.
• Good organisational skills and a methodical way of working.
• The ability to work effectively as part of a team.
• A willingness to learn and develop further technical skills.
• Experience using electrical test equipment would be advantageous, as would experience within lighting, LED products, emergency lighting or electronic assemblies.
• An electrical or electronic qualification such as an NVQ, City & Guilds, HNC or equivalent would also be beneficial but is not essential where you can demonstrate relevant practical experience.

What's on Offer?

This is an excellent opportunity to join an established business where you can build on your existing electrical or testing experience and develop your technical knowledge further. If you have experience within electrical testing, electronics, fault finding, production testing or electrical manufacturing and are looking for your next opportunity, we would love to hear from you.
