    My company is looking for someone with either an electronics or mechanical technician background.
    This is a lower level entry position and what I'm looking for is someone who will mostly be doing data entry for our manufacturing system including but not limited to
    New part creation
    Bill of Materials creation/editing
    Spreadsheets
    Mechanical assembly and documentation

    What I'm looking for is the aptitude to learn as the software system this candidate would use is not common in the workforce.
    Will train.

    Lazy people need not apply :)

    Location is Elkridge, MD right off of Rt100 & I-95

    PM me if interested.

    entry position ... mostly be doing data entry
    aptitude to learn ... Will train

    Serious question, if they're going to be doing data entry and learning unique software from scratch, why do they need engineering/electronics experience?

    Wouldn't someone who can learn be fine regardless of background?

    1-5 years experience is preferred but one has more experience doing something else and is looking for a fresh start, that's cool, just have them/you PM me your current experience and $alary target and I'll let you/them know if its a good fit.
    Technician experience can come from many different places. Mechanical technician could be someone who worked in a fabrication shop or auto garage for a year.

    Engineering technician is just a generic term for someone who is a "shop floor" worker.

    Places like Northrop Grumman, Lockheed Martin, JHU APL, those type of employers use that term if that gives you an idea of the type of work/skill sets.
