Assembly Technician - Battery

Job Type: Full-Time

Sceye is a high-growth technology company, building the next generation of instant communications, imaging and remote sensing infrastructure through stratospheric platforms.

Our lighter-than-air high-altitude platform systems (LTA HAPS) are capable of maintaining position over an operational area in the stratosphere (altitudes of 18 – 21km). They can carry multiple telecommunications, imaging and remote sensing payloads, providing unique functionality, cost, environmental and societal advantages.

Our HAPS be deployed in a matter of days and at a fraction of the cost of traditional infrastructure solutions. This makes them an ideal solution for providing telecommunications connectivity, emergency solutions in the event of natural or other disasters, environmental and infrastructure monitoring, Earth observation and a range of defense applications.

Our customers & partners include some of the largest global telecommunications companies, infrastructure operators, climate researchers, civil and defense agencies.

At Sceye, we aim high, and we want you to join us at the stratospheric edge of innovation. As part of our mission-driven team, you’ll contribute to building breakthrough technologies that are changing the way we connect and observe the world. We are looking for individuals who bring not only deep expertise but also bold vision and an unwavering commitment to excellence.

The Battery Assembly Technician is a hands-on role responsible for assisting the Power Systems team in building battery sub-assemblies for our high-altitude platforms. We are looking to build a strong local team and strongly encourage candidates from the Moriarty, Edgewood, East Mountains, and Albuquerque areas to apply.

• Basic understanding of electrical systems (e.g., comfortable handling AC/DC wiring, automotive electrical repairs, or basic electronics).
• Hands-on ability to solder components.
• Ability to communicate effectively in English.
• General hands-on experience in mechanical, electrical, or general assembly (strong DIY experience is perfectly acceptable).
• Willingness to learn how to follow basic build instructions (no prior expert knowledge of complex engineering drawings required; on-the-job training will be provided).
• Reliable transportation to commute to the Moriarty, NM production facility.
• Authorized to work in the United States.

• Any previous exposure to handling batteries or making cables/harnesses.
• A strong mechanical aptitude and a habit of doing clean, detailed work.
