• Use hand tools and precision instruments (micrometers, calipers, Gaussmeters, Fluxmeters, etc.) to verify tolerances and performance.

Process & Documentation

• Follow and improve assembly and testing work instructions according to quality standards.
• Record build data, test results, and observations with high attention to detail.
• Work closely with other engineers to refine designs and manufacturing methods.
• Design or modify tooling and fixtures to support prototype builds.
• Participate in design reviews and provide hands‑on feedback from the build process.

Required Qualifications

• 2- or 4-year technical degree or equivalent hands‑on experience.
• Skilled at working with small components and fine wiring within tight tolerances.
• Demonstrated craftsmanship, precision, and pride in producing high-quality work.
• Comfortable reading drawings and technical instructions.
• Basic CAD or 3D modeling experience.

Preferred Qualifications

• Familiarity with electromagnetic assemblies, motor winding, or electrical testing.
