Full Job Description
We are looking for a Electronics Technician to support the development, bring-up, and validation of the electronic systems that power our robots. This role sits at the bench alongside our electrical, embedded, and mechanical engineers, turning new designs into working hardware and helping us find the failure modes before our customers do. You will be hands-on every day with prototype PCBAs, motor drivers, battery systems, and full-robot integration, and your work will directly shape the quality and reliability of the platform.

Key job responsibilities

- Build, rework, and repair prototype and early-production PCBAs, including fine-pitch SMT components, BGAs, QFNs, 0201 passives, and flex circuits

- Execute electrical bring-up and functional test procedures on new boards and subsystems, capturing results clearly and feeding issues back to design

- Assembling low run SMT PCBs working from ECAD schematics in Altium or KiCAD

- Debug hardware problems at the bench using oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, DMMs, power analyzers, and protocol decoders, working from schematics and PCB layouts to isolate root cause

- Develop, refine, and maintain test fixtures, jigs, and bring-up scripts in partnership with EEs and embedded engineers

- Support battery pack assembly, instrumentation, and characterization, including cell-level and pack-level testing

- Perform incoming inspection and first-article evaluation on components and assemblies from our contract manufacturer and component vendors

- Support full-robot integration and electrical commissioning, including harness build, continuity and hipot checks, and powered bring-up

- Document work clearly: rework notes, test reports, work instructions, ECO redlines, and traceable records of build configuration

- Partner with manufacturing and quality to transfer test procedures and rework standards into production, and to debug failures returned from the line

- Maintain the electronics lab: equipment calibration, ESD compliance, inventory of consumables and reference hardware, and general bench hygiene

- Mentor junior technicians on soldering technique, debug methodology, and lab safety

BASIC QUALIFICATIONS

- 2+ years of hardware development, test lab, space/aerospace maintenance or hands-on engineering environment experience

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS

- Previous experience in robotics or control systems
