Advanced BGA Rework Lab Technician
We are seeking a highly specialized Lab Technician for a part-time contract role. This position is ideal for a precision soldering expert who thrives in a high-tech R&D environment. You will serve as the primary resource for DRAM BGA replacements and high-complexity board modifications, providing critical support to our engineering team on an as-needed basis.
Primary Responsibilities
- Advanced BGA Rework: Lead the removal, reballing, and replacement of DRAM and SoC components using the Air-Vac DRS
25 rework system. - Precision Soldering: Perform manual rework of fine-pitch SMT components (down to 0201), including QFNs, connectors, and passives.
- Engineering Modifications: Execute complex "dead-bug" wiring, trace repairs, and ECO (Engineering Change Order) implementations.
- Profile Optimization: Maintain and create thermal profiles for the DRS
25 to ensure consistent results across various board geometries. - Documentation: Maintain a brief log of rework success rates and provide feedback to engineers on board "reworkability" and pad damage.
Technical Requirements
- Specialized Expertise: Demonstrated mastery of the Air-Vac DRS
25 or similar high-end BGA rework stations. - Industry Standards: Working knowledge of IPC-7711/7721 (Rework and Repair) and IPC-A-610.
- Chemical & Lab Safety: Deep familiarity with Safety Data Sheets (SDS) for fluxes (Rosin/No-Clean) and solvents, and strict adherence to ESD protocols.
- Microscope Proficiency: Extensive experience performing high-precision work under a microscope for 4-6 hours at a time.
Contract & Schedule Details
- Workload: Consistent 20-30 hours per week.
- Flexibility: We offer a flexible start/end time, provided project deadlines are met.
- Location: On-site at our Andover Lab (This is a hands-on hardware role and cannot be performed remotely).
Key Competencies
- Efficiency: Ability to manage a queue of rework tasks independently with minimal supervision.
- Quality First: A "first-time-right" mentality, especially when working on one-of-a-kind prototype boards.
Clear Communication: Ability to update engineering teams on the status of high-priority repairs via email or ticketing systems.
