• Using simulation software to design and test electrical circuits
• Keeping clear records of your work, including technical notes and results from experiments and tests

• Proactive in working to deadlines and adapting to changing priorities
• Committed to working responsibly and promoting a zero-harm culture
• Comfortable using basic tools and test equipment like multimeters and oscilloscopes
• Motivated to get stuck in and help find practical solutions
• Familiarity with electronic simulation tools is a plus, but not essential
