Descrizione del lavoro

Azora is seeking an experienced Technician (Opto-mechanical) to assemble and align precision hardware for space terminals and ground stations in a Tempe-based facility. You will build engineering and flight units, run alignment procedures, and participate in environmental test campaigns.

Responsibilities include cleanroom handling, documentation, and instrumented testing; occasional travel to remote sites is required.

Competenze

• 3+ years as a mechanical, optical, or aerospace assembly technician, including space flight or high-reliability hardware experience.
• Experience performing precision assembly with small fasteners, torque control, bonding, and delicate component handling.
• Experience in cleanroom environments with contamination control, ESD, and FOD discipline.
• Ability to read engineering drawings, GD&T callouts, and written procedures.
• Strong documentation habits (travellers, as-built records, non-conformance reporting).

Mansioni

• Assemble precision optomechanical hardware: optical benches, telescope assemblies, fiber routing, FSM and gimbal subassemblies, and structural elements.
• Perform optical alignment using autocollimators, interferometers, alignment lasers, and CMM/metrology equipment per procedures.
• Execute bonding, staking, torquing, and fastener installation to aerospace workmanship standards with full traceability.
• Handle, clean, and inspect optical components (mirrors, lenses, fibers, windows) per cleanliness protocols.
• Support environmental testing: vibration, shock, thermal vacuum, and thermal cycling; assist fixture setup, instrumentation, and test execution.
• Maintain cleanroom standards, tool calibration records, and ESD/FOD controls; update documentation.
• Red-line and improve assembly procedures; provide manufacturability feedback to design engineers.
• Support ground station site builds and installations, including occasional travel to remote sites.
