SMT Process Engineer

Industry: Electronics Manufacturing / PCB Assembly

Type:
Full Time

We’re looking for a seasoned SMT Process Engineer who’s ready to step into a high-impact role and grow into future leadership. This is a mid-career position for someone with 7–15 years of hands‑on SMT, PCB assembly, and process development experience. Candidates must come from an environment with multiple SMT lines and a larger‑scale electronics manufacturing operation.

• Communicate clearly with engineering, production, and customer teams.
• Partner with operators, technicians, and supervisors on daily SMT operations.
• Program, set up, and optimize SMT equipment: printers, SPI, pick‑and‑place, reflow ovens, AOI.
• Troubleshoot mechanical and electrical equipment issues.
• Build and debug reflow oven profiles (°F/°C).
• Perform defect review, root‑cause analysis, and develop pre‑ and post‑build DFM reports.
• Support and program Selective Solder and Wave Solder equipment.
• Interpret 2D and 5DX X‑ray images; programming experience is a plus.
• Handle label programming, barcodes, and traceability.
• Use Gerbers, CAD, and stencil design tools.
• Use AutoCAD or Solid Works for assembly and fabrication drawings.
• Work directly with customer engineering groups to improve design and process performance.

• 7–15 years of SMT/PCB manufacturing experience (active within the last 3–5 years).
• Experience supporting multiple SMT lines; small shops or single‑line operations will not be a fit.
• Strong understanding of circuit card assembly, electronics manufacturing, and box builds.
• Ability to analyze issues, collect data, interpret results, and implement solutions quickly.
• Strong communication skills and customer service approach.
• Proficiency with Microsoft Office;
  Aegis experience preferred.
• Must pass Component  IPC‑A‑610 Inspection training.
