Job Description & How to Apply Below
Electromechanical Technician
Join a Prototype & Build team as an Electromechanical Technician, supporting the development, testing, and validation of advanced energy storage products. In this hands-on role, you build and maintain electrical test infrastructure that enables safe, reliable evaluation of PCBAs, battery cells, modules, and system-level hardware. You work primarily in a lab environment, applying your expertise in control panel wiring, harness fabrication, and PCBA assembly to bring cutting-edge prototypes to life.
Responsibilities:
- Assemble and wire industrial control panels in accordance with UL508A standards.
- Read and interpret electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, panel layouts, and mechanical drawings to guide builds and troubleshooting.
- Fabricate complex wire harnesses and cable assemblies to support prototypes, test fixtures, and system integration.
- Perform precise crimping, routing, labeling, and continuity verification on wiring and harnesses.
- Assemble, rework, and repair PCBAs, including both through-hole and surface-mount components.
- Execute fine-pitch SMD hand-soldering and hot-air rework, and perform detailed inspection using microscopes and specialized rework tools.
- Support prototype bring-up and troubleshooting in close collaboration with electrical engineers.
- Construct and maintain electrical test fixtures, load boxes, wiring assemblies, and custom hardware used to characterize and validate battery cells, modules, and electronic subsystems.
- Install instrumentation, sensors, power supplies, data acquisition systems, and safety interlocks as needed for test setups.
- Support test engineers and product engineers in setting up, executing, and monitoring electrical tests.
- Assemble, organize, and inspect test infrastructure electrical subassemblies and integrated test systems to ensure quality and reliability.
- Use and maintain electrical build tooling in a shared workspace, keeping tools and work areas organized and in good working condition.
- Commission and troubleshoot completed test infrastructure systems and confirm initial mechanical functionality, including validation using associated sensor readings, in collaboration with commissioning and engineering teams.
- Document findings, test results, and performance metrics to ensure traceability and support continuous improvement.
- Offer recommendations for keeping technical documentation, build records, and test procedures up to date and accurate.
- Identify issues in electrical and test systems, perform root cause analysis, and contribute to effective troubleshooting and repair.
- Work safely around high-voltage systems and follow established electrical safety practices and procedures.
Essential
Skills:
- At least 3 years of hands-on experience as an engineering technician, electrical technician, panel builder, or in a similar role.
- At least 3 years of experience in electrical wiring, cable harness fabrication, and industrial control panel assembly.
- At least 2 years of experience in soldering, including SMD and through-hole, and PCBA assembly and rework.
- Strong proficiency in assembling and wiring industrial control panels, ideally with UL508A-compliant builds.
- Demonstrated skill in fine-pitch SMD hand-soldering, hot-air rework, and microscope-based inspection.
- Ability to read and interpret electrical schematics, panel layouts, wiring diagrams, and mechanical drawings accurately.
- Hands-on experience with electrical testing and troubleshooting, including bug reporting and repair of electrical and electronic systems.
- Familiarity with standard electrical tools, test equipment, and safety practices, including use of digital multimeters (DMMs), oscilloscopes, power supplies, and related instruments.
- Comfort working with high-voltage systems while adhering to rigorous safety protocols.
- Strong attention to detail and ability to maintain high-quality standards in assembly and testing work.
