- Conduct continuity, hi-pot, and functional electrical testing on completed assemblies.
- Identify and communicate design or workmanship issues to engineering and implement corrective actions.
- Maintain organized work areas and accurate documentation for all assemblies built.
- Support prototype builds and production ramp, adapting quickly as designs evolve.
Basic Qualifications
- 2+ years of experience fabricating wire harnesses or cable assemblies in an aerospace, defense, or high-reliability electronics environment.
- Proficiency with crimping tools, soldering irons, and associated hand tools; ability to read and interpret wiring diagrams and schematics.
- Familiarity with a variety of connector types across industries (e.g., automotive, industrial, consumer electronics); comfort adapting to new connector systems as needed.
- Strong attention to detail and commitment to producing defect-free assemblies.
- Clear verbal and written communication skills; ability to surface issues, ask the right questions, and keep engineering informed of assembly challenges in real time.
- Ability to work independently and manage multiple builds simultaneously in a fast-paced environment.
Preferred Skills and Experience
- IPC/WHMA-A-620 or J-STD-001 certification or training.
- Experience building to MIL-SPEC or other defense/aerospace standards.
- Familiarity with waterproof or ruggedized connector systems (e.g., Deutsch, Amphenol, Souriau).
- Exposure to underwater, maritime, or submersible system builds.
- Experience supporting engineering teams during early-stage prototype development.
