Electronics Technical Officer

The ANU Electronics Unit provides electronics support to College of Science and Medicine, primarily for the Research School of Physics and the John Curtin School of Medical Research . It also provides on-demand support to any other ANU school, staff, student, or associated company. The small but well-resourced team facilitates education, research and innovation by providing design, repair, modification, installation and re-engineering services for all manner of electronic and electromechanical devices and systems.

The successful applicant will join the team delivering these services. The Technical Officer will employ a broad range of technologies and techniques to solve both common and unique problems, often with little or no documentation. The role therefore demands critical thinking, a systematic approach, and the ability to rapidly acquire new knowledge and information. Assignments may range from simple inspections, through assembly, service, and repair, up to moderately complex ECAD and MCAD design and/or modification. The workshop environment requires strict observance of Work Health & Safety procedures, policies and regulations. The Person

They will be competent at moderately complex ECAD and MCAD design. The nature of the work requires task agility as well as disciplined time tracking and management habits. Our exposure to the broader ANU community requires proficiency in all forms of communication. The School

The Research School of Physics is a leading institution dedicated to advancing the field of physics and its practical applications. With a rich history spanning over 75 years, the School has a distinguished record of scientific discoveries and translational successes. Our team of over 500 faculty, staff, and students is our most valuable asset, driving interdisciplinary collaborations and fostering innovative research excellence. The College
