Sr Technician Ece

Sr Technician Ece is based at CR Engineering College on Renigunta Road in Tirupati. My name is V. Jayachadrareddy and I handle the technical work for the Department of ECE here. The college is in the Chittoor district and it stays quite busy with students and faculty all day long. My lab is filled with all sorts of electronics equipment, from old-fashioned meters to some newer digital tools. It is a place meant for students to learn, so things are always being used, and sometimes they get broken. My job is to keep everything in working order so the classes can go on without a hitch. It’s a very practical role. I don’t have an office with a view; I have a workbench with a soldering station and a lot of tangled wires. The air in Tirupati is usually quite dry and dusty, so I spend a good amount of time just cleaning the machines. It’s not like a commercial business where we are trying to sell a service. We are an educational institution, and I am just one of the staff members making sure the technical side of things stays functional. The students often come to me for help with their projects, and I show them how to use the tools properly. It’s a busy environment with a lot of foot traffic and constant questions. I’ve been here for years and the 517501 area feels like home now.
