Responsibilities

• Build mechanical and electronic sub-assemblies for large testing units according to detailed assembly drawings, blueprints, and schematics.

• Work at an individual workstation to complete varied sub-assembly builds, rather than performing repetitive assembly-line tasks.

• Use hand tools and power tools safely and effectively to assemble, fasten, and adjust small parts and components.

• Visually inspect finished sub-assemblies to verify quality, identify defects, and ensure they meet required specifications.

• Assist with all aspects of the assembly process as needed, including setup, adjustments, rework, and basic repairs.

• Interpret and follow assembly documentation, including blueprints, schematics, and work instructions, with a high degree of accuracy.

• Collaborate with team members and support a positive, culture-focused environment while meeting production and quality goals.

Why Work Here?

You will join a laid-back, friendly workplace that emphasizes culture, teamwork, and long-term stability. The organization offers strong job security with no layoffs, profit-sharing 401(k), and benefits that begin on your first day of direct employment. Employees enjoy monthly and quarterly appreciation events, and leadership actively invests in creating a relaxed, supportive environment where people feel valued and can thrive.

Work Environment

The role is based on a modern campus located in an industrial park, featuring a well-lit, extremely clean electronics lab that is fully temperature controlled, along with a separate tooling and fabrication area that is also clean and well-lit. Only a small portion of the warehouse is currently not temperature controlled, with plans in place to address this. You will work daytime shifts, either 6:00 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. or 7:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., at your own workstation rather than on an assembly line.
