West Coast Magnetics is a fast-growing, close-knit manufacturer specializing in custom electronic assemblies for the medical, aerospace, semiconductor, communications, and test & measurement industries.

• Build complex coils and assemblies from start to finish with high levels of quality and repeatability
• Solder, tin, strip, cut wire, wind, glue, coat, and varnish as required by the job
• Inspect your own work to ensure 100% accuracy and compliance with work instructions
• Document first article builds and pre-runs with clear, detailed notes
• Test complex coils and transformers
• Keep safety front and center, following all safety rules and procedures
• Work efficiently without sacrificing quality
• Maintain a clean, organized workspace
• Collaborate well with your supervisor and teammates

• Soldering experience strongly preferred - comfort and skill with a soldering iron is central to this role
• High school diploma or equivalent
• Basic math and reading skillsli>
• Ability to read and follow detailed technical work instructions
• A quality-first mindset and pride in getting the job right the first time

• Competitive pay: $20.93–$27.00/hour
• 401(k) with company matching
• Medical, dental, and vision insurance
• Life insurance
• Paid time off
• Tuition reimbursement
• Referral program
• A genuine small-company culture where your work - and your craftsmanship - is noticed and valued

We're not a company that settles for "standard." When our customers need something that doesn't exist yet, we engineer it. Our teams design, manufacture, and test custom electronic assemblies for some of the most demanding industries out there. If you want your soldering skills to matter and your work to end up in products that push boundaries, we'd love to meet you.
