• Conduct continuity, insulation-resistance, and dielectric-strength testing on TPS cables; splice, re-terminate, or replace cable sections per MIL-STD-810/461 requirements; update cable-status records.
• Resolve complex malfunctions (intermittent signal loss, timing anomalies, undocumented failure modes); lead (RCA) and document findings in Maintenance Action Reports (MAR).
• Review and apply engineering change notices (ECNs) and hardware/firmware updates to COLT, kits, and cables; verify functional and safety compliance before release.
• Execute depot-sustainment work orders for kits and TPS cables; perform functional acceptance testing after repair; ensure proper labeling, packaging, and storage of repaired assets.
• Team with Engineers, and depot operators on schematic interpretation, ESD best practices, and repair techniques; review rework for SOP compliance.
• Update equipment logs, calibration certificates, and maintenance records in SAP & ADIS; ensure adherence to DFARS (Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement), MIL-STD, and ISO-9001 requirements.
• Enforce grounding straps, ionizers, and controlled humidity; conduct safety briefings and participate in periodic safety audits.
• Identify reliability trends, propose corrective actions, support Performance Management Team (PMT) events, and contribute to SOP revisions and training material.
• Liaise with Test Engineers to schedule maintenance windows that minimize impact on test campaigns; provide rapid response for emergency repairs.

Who You Are

The COLT Test Technician / Depot Sustainment Operator – Maintenance II is the primary custodian of the Common Organizational Level Tester (COLT) and is responsible for the repair, calibration, and sustainment of COLT hardware, associated test kits, and TPS (Test Power Supply) cables used in depot-level support.
