As of Jun 3, 2026, the average hourly pay for remote instrument calibration in the United States is $24.54, according to ZipRecruiter salary data. Most workers in this role earn between $20.43 and $29.33 per hour, depending on experience, location, and employer.

What is the difference between Remote Instrument Calibration vs Remote Test Equipment Technician?

AspectRemote Instrument CalibrationRemote Test Equipment Technician
CertificationsISO/IEC 17025, calibration certificationsElectronics, test equipment certifications
Work EnvironmentLaboratories, client sites, remote setupsManufacturing facilities, labs, remote troubleshooting
Industry UsageManufacturing, aerospace, healthcareElectronics, telecommunications, defense

Remote Instrument Calibration and Remote Test Equipment Technicians both work with testing and measurement tools, but calibration focuses on ensuring instruments are accurate and compliant, often involving precise certifications. Test equipment technicians troubleshoot, repair, and maintain testing devices. While calibration emphasizes accuracy and standards, test technicians focus on functionality and repair. Both roles are essential in quality assurance and often overlap in technical skills, but calibration is more specialized in measurement accuracy.

Job description

About the role

Muon seeks a Senior Instrument Calibration Scientist to join our team in Mountain View, CA with a focus on calibration of infrared remote sensing instruments. The ideal candidate is a self-motivated engineer or scientist with a versatile skill set who is comfortable working across many layers of technical depth. This role will be a key member of the instrument team, establishing scalable calibration hardware infrastructure and processes to ensure delivery of science-grade radiometric and geometric calibration artifacts to the data team. Previous experience developing and operating infrared electro-optical systems, remote sensing instruments, and test infrastructure in fast-paced and small-team environments is preferred.

Responsibilities
  • Own radiometric and geometric calibration standards across multiple instrument programs, developing best practices and ensuring adherence to defined processes.
  • Lead the design and development of scalable calibration test hardware infrastructure.
  • Lead the planning and execution of pre-launch radiometric and geometric calibration campaigns to establish baseline sensor performance models.
  • Support definition and tracking of metrics to monitor the performance of instruments from ground to orbit.
  • Collaborate and communicate effectively with instrument and spacecraft systems engineers, data scientists, mission operations engineers, and program managers.
  • This position participates in a 24/7 on-call rotation to support on-orbit anomaly resolution. The on-call rotation is approximately one week per month.
Qualifications 
  • B.S, M.S., or Ph.D. in an engineering field, or equivalent experience.
  • 5+ years of experience working in a multi-disciplinary environment, with demonstrated experience with imaging systems and infrared remote sensing instruments.
  • Software skills in one or more languages (e.g. Python, Julia, C++).
  • Experience working hands-on with precision optical equipment for instrument characterization and calibration.
  • Experience with root cause analysis efforts including data analysis and testing.
  • Experience performing data analysis, post-processing, and test report generation.
  • Excellent communication, presentation, and organization skills.
  • Excited to work in a fast-paced environment with new challenges each week.
Nice-to-have Skills
  • Experience supporting business development including technical contributions to proposals.
  • Experience translating mission and science requirements into technical requirements.
  • Experience developing instrument concept of operations (ConOps).
  • Experience working in cleanroom environments.
  • Experience supporting environmental testing (thermal stress screening, TVAC, random vibration), integrated spacecraft testing, and launch campaigns.
Salary

The salary range for this role is $184,000 - $223,000 plus a competitive equity grant and comprehensive benefits package. Final compensation will be based on skills, qualifications, experience, and geographic location as assessed during the interview process
