Electromechanical Wiring & PCB Rework Specialist

SPS Simulators; Carson (CA); On-site; USD 28,000 - 41,000; Full time

Job summary

SPS Simulators is seeking a hands-on Technician to interpret schematics and mechanical drawings, and to plan builds for prototype electromechanical units. You will perform precise soldering, wire harness fabrication, and assembly using BOMs and work instructions in a collaborative environment.

Focus will be on high-quality wiring, PCB soldering (through-hole and surface-mount), and adherence to workmanship and safety standards, including ESD procedures, on site in Carson, CA.

Qualifications

• Ability to read schematics, BWDs, and mechanical drawings.
• Hands-on soldering and crimping experience with electronics components.
• Proficiency with core assembly and wiring tools (e.g., torque drivers, crimp tools, multimeters).
• High attention to detail and strong manual dexterity.
• Collaborative teamwork and problem-solving.
• Familiarity with IPC-A-610 and IPC/WHMA-A-620 is a plus.

Responsibilities

• Interpret electrical schematics, BWDs, and mechanical drawings to plan builds and verify work.
• Execute point-to-point wiring checks, continuity verification, and inspection of connections, pinouts, and polarity.
• Fabricate, modify, and validate wire harnesses and cable assemblies.
• Perform high-quality through-hole and surface-mount PCB soldering and rework, including approved modifications, with or without a microscope.
• Assemble prototypes and production electromechanical units using drawings, BOMs, and work instructions.
• Operate hand tools, torque drivers, crimpers, and multimeters; document and report technical discrepancies.

Job description

A day in this roleYou begin by opening a new build packet: schematics, block wiring diagrams (BWDs), mechanical drawings, BOMs, and work instructions. You map connections, double-check pinouts and polarity, and plan out the wire and test harnesses you’ll fabricate. Mid-morning, you’re under the microscope performing precise through-hole and surface-mount soldering, completing approved PCB modifications and rework. After lunch, you assemble a prototype electromechanical unit, verify continuity point-to-point, torque fasteners to spec, and record any discrepancies so the team can resolve them quickly. Before you wrap up, you confirm the build meets workmanship, quality, safety, and ESD expectations.What you will doInterpret electrical schematics, BWDs, and mechanical assembly drawings to plan builds and verify work.Execute point-to-point wiring checks, continuity verification, and inspection of connections, pinouts, and polarity.Fabricate, modify, and validate wire harnesses and cable assemblies.Perform high-quality through-hole and surface-mount PCB soldering and rework, including approved modifications, with or without a microscope.Assemble prototypes and production electromechanical units using drawings, BOMs, and work instructions.Operate hand tools, torque drivers, crimpers, and multimeters; document and report technical discrepancies.Follow established quality, workmanship, safety, and ESD procedures at all times.Required qualificationsAbility to read and interpret schematics, BWDs, and mechanical drawings.Hands-on soldering and crimping experience with familiarity in electronic components.Proficiency with core assembly and wiring tools (e.g., torque drivers, crimp tools, multimeters, hand tools).High attention to detail, strong manual dexterity, practical problem-solving, and collaborative teamwork.Preferred qualificationsBackground in prototype assembly, wire harness fabrication, and PCB rework.Familiarity with IPC-A-610 and IPC/WHMA-A-620; certification is a plus but not required.
