Lethabo Gwangwa

I hold an Advanced Diploma in Industrial Physics and am busy with a postgraduate in Industrial Physics. I am an Electronics, Optic and Mechanic Technician with 8 years of work experience. I have hands-on experience in assembly, integration, and testing of high-precision sub-assemblies and systems.

I have the proven ability to follow technical documentation and work instructions for mechanical and optoelectronic components. I am skilled in system-level diagnostics using schematic diagrams, ultrasonic cleaning, SAP usage, and quality assurance processes. I have a background in executing FAT, boresight, ROLL, alignment, and environmental stress screening (ESS) procedures in cleanroom environments.

I have a strong commitment to quality, safety, and continuous improvement, I seek to leverage my expertise in a Test Technician or Production Technologist role to support efficient and accurate production outcomes.
