We are seeking an experienced engineering technician to support product development, testing, and manufacturing activities. The ideal candidate is comfortable working in a fast‑paced engineering environment and has strong troubleshooting skills. Experience with battery technology is a plus.

This is a hands‑on role, perfect for someone who enjoys rolling up their sleeves, solving complex problems, and helping take innovative designs all the way to scalable production.

Requirements

• Associate degree in Engineering Technology, Electrical Technology, Mechanical Technology, or related field, or equivalent hands‑on experience.
• Experience with electrical and mechanical testing tools (DMMs, oscilloscopes, torque tools, etc.).
• Ability to read and interpret schematics, mechanical drawings, and test procedures.
• Ability to work independently as well as collaboratively within a team environment.
• Strong attention to detail, ensuring high‑quality workmanship in all tasks performed.
• Familiarity with electrical safety, proper use of PPE, OSHA standards and all typical workplace safety guidelines.
• Battery technology or grid‑scale energy storage experience a plus.

Key Responsibilities

• Assist engineers in building, assembling, and testing prototypes and production units.
• Perform diagnostic evaluations, test set‑ups, data collection, and documentation.
• Support root‑cause analysis and corrective actions for product or system issues.
• Maintain lab equipment, tools, and test fixtures.
• Collaborate with cross‑functional teams including engineering, manufacturing, and quality control.
• Follow safety procedures and ensure compliance with industry and company standards.
• Perform shipping, supply organization, and inventory tracking duties.

What We Offer

• Three weeks paid time off
• Sick pay
• Parental leave
• Ten paid holidays
• Health insurance
• 401(k) match
