• High school diploma or equivalent
• 3+ years of experience in electronics assembly, electrical integration, or hardware test within a precision or high‑reliability environment
• Proficiency in electronic rework, including soldering, component replacement, reflow, and both SMT and through‑hole techniques
• Hands‑on experience building and validating wire harnesses, including crimping, terminations, dressing, shielding, and continuity testing
• Ability to read and understand electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, and engineering drawings
• Familiarity with torque tools, mechanical fastening methods, and assembly practices for aerospace‑grade hardware
• Solid understanding of electrical fundamentals, grounding, power distribution, and circuit behavior
• Excellent hand‑eye coordination, manual dexterity, and fine‑motor skills
• Strong attention to detail and ability to perform repeatable, high‑quality work
• Ability to work both independently and collaboratively within a cross‑functional team
• Effective communication and documentation skills

• IPC solder certifications (e.g., IPC‑A‑610, J‑STD‑001)
• Experience with spacecraft lifting and handling procedures
• Experience working on developmental satellite systems is a strong advantage
• Experience working in a cleanroom environment
• Experience with space‑qualified components
• Experience with soldering techniques for surface‑mount devices (SMDs)
