• Machine maintenance: I would regularly perform routine maintenance on the automated machines, such as cleaning, lubricating, and replacing worn parts. This helps to ensure that the machines are operating at peak performance and can help prevent breakdowns. • Troubleshooting: If a machine isn't working properly, I would use my knowledge of the equipment to diagnose the problem and make the necessary repairs. This could involve replacing a broken component, adjusting settings, or reprogramming the machine's software. • Quality control: Assembling HIV test kits requires a high level of precision and accuracy, so I would regularly check the quality of the test strips and cassettes to ensure that they meet the required standards. This might involve running tests on a sample of the finished products to ensure that they are working as they should. • Programming: The robotic arms used to put the test strips onto the plastic cassettes are typically programmed to perform a specific sequence of movements. I help to test this code to ensure that the robotic arms are functioning correctly. The programs for these robots are written in c#. • Training: Finally, I would work with other technicians and operators to ensure that they understand how to operate the automated machines safely and effectively. This might involve providing training sessions or creating instructional materials. Show less
