Precision Optoelectromechanical Assembler

Day in the Life

Start your shift reviewing visual work instructions, then move to hands-on assembly of electro-mechanical and optoelectronic subassemblies. You will perform fine-pitch soldering under magnification on shielded cables and wires-to-host connections, integrate mechanical and electronic components, and verify each step against product specifications. Throughout the day you’ll operate hand and power tools, follow cleanroom and ESD-safe practices, and document quality checks to ensure every build meets exacting standards.

What You’ll Do

• Assemble electronic and mechanical products in accordance with specifications and visual aids.
• Execute precision soldering under magnification on shielded cable assemblies and wire terminations.
• Use a range of hand tools, power tools, and dedicated assembly equipment safely and effectively.
• Apply established quality procedures and workmanship standards (IPC-610) to every build.
• Maintain a clean, orderly workspace consistent with cleanroom expectations.
• Own the quality and accuracy of your work from start to finish.

Reporting & Collaboration

• Reports to: Supervisor / Manager
• Interfaces with inter-company personnel across functions to move work forward.
• People managed: None; may informally guide or direct others when needed.

Decision-Making & Impact

• Rely on experience and sound judgment to plan and complete varied, sometimes complex tasks.
• Tackle a wide range of assemblies and challenges with minimal guidance.
• Impact of error: Direct effect on product quality and downstream performance.

What You Bring

• Proficiency with soldering equipment and wires-to-host assembly work.
• Experience working in cleanroom environments and following ESD protocols.
• Strong grasp of industry concepts, practices, and procedures; excellent command of IPC-610 workmanship requirements.
• Exceptional attention to detail and clear communication skills.
• Adaptability in a fast-paced setting; creativity and latitude to resolve build challenges.

Background & Credentials

• High school diploma or GED, or equivalent work experience.
• Working knowledge of IPC standards.
• 3+ years in a related electronics/electro-mechanical assembly role.
• Optics experience preferred (e.g., assemblies involving lenses).

Core Proficiencies

• Soldering
• Mechanical Assembly
• High School / GED

Responsibilities and tasks may evolve; management may assign or reassign duties as business needs change.
