PCB Test Technician

Monday – Friday | 40 hours/week + overtime as needed

Pay: $35/hour

We are seeking a highly skilled PCB Repair / Debug Technician to support the transfer and ramp-up of multiple high-volume SMT production lines from our Mexico facility to Memphis. This role will play a critical part in establishing advanced board‑level debug and true component‑level repair capabilities for complex server and data centre hardware.

This is not a board‑swap or tester‑only position. We are specifically seeking technicians who can diagnose failures down to the component level and perform precise soldering and rework to recover high‑value assemblies.

Candidates who are open to short‑term travel to our Mexico facility (approximately 6–8 weeks) to learn existing processes prior to equipment relocation will be strongly preferred. All travel, accommodations, and per diem will be fully covered. However, travel is not required for consideration.

• Perform advanced board‑level troubleshooting and component‑level debug and repair on complex multilayer PCBAs
• Diagnose and repair failures across CPU, GPU, FPGA, ASIC, memory, and power subsystems without defaulting to full board replacement
• Troubleshoot high‑speed digital, mixed‑signal, and power distribution circuits using schematics, layout files, and diagnostic tools
• Utilize advanced test equipment including oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, protocol analyzers, and power analyzers to isolate faults to the component level
• Perform hands‑on soldering and rework
  , including removal and replacement of fine‑pitch components and BGAs using proper thermal profiles
• Use X‑ray and other inspection methods to validate solder joints and rework quality
• Analyze POST codes, BIOS logs, boundary scan results, and other diagnostics to pinpoint root causes
• Conduct root cause failure analysis and identify trends to reduce recurring defects and improve yield
• Partner closely with engineering to refine debug and repair methodologies for scalability and repeatability
• Develop and maintain detailed debug guides, repair procedures, and diagnostic documentation
• Track yield, repair cycle time, and failure trends to support continuous improvement initiatives
• Support installation, validation, and optimisation of SMT, test, and rework equipment during line transfer
• Ensure strict adherence to ESD, safety, and quality standards when handling high‑value electronic assemblies
• Mentor junior technicians in component‑level troubleshooting and soldering best practices

• 5+ years of experience in hands‑on PCB repair and component‑level troubleshooting
• Proven ability to diagnose faults and repair boards at the component level (not just replace entire assemblies)
• Strong soldering and rework skills, including fine‑pitch components and BGA rework
• Experience with server, storage, networking, or other high‑performance computing hardware preferred
• Deep understanding of board‑level electronics, including power architecture and signal integrity fundamentals
• Experience debugging DDR memory, PCIe interfaces, and high‑speed interconnects
• Ability to read and interpret complex schematics and PCB layout files
• Proficiency with oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and other electronic test equipment
• Experience in SMT or high‑volume electronics manufacturing environments strongly preferred

• Opportunity to travel to our Mexico facility for approximately 6–8 weeks to support knowledge transfer and process training prior to equipment relocation
• All travel, lodging, and meals/per diem will be fully covered
• Candidates who are unable or prefer not to travel will still be considered

• Be a key contributor in standing up a major SMT manufacturing operation in Memphis
• Work with cutting‑edge server and data centre technologies
• High‑impact role with strong visibility to engineering and operations leadership
• Opportunity to influence repair strategy and move away from costly board‑level scrap
