Technician - Process Specialist - Level 3

Standard Job Description

Role Overview

Support electronic fabrications and process engineering by performing hands-on electronic assembling, soldering, harnessing, conformal coating, and related processes. This role bridges process evaluation, equipment monitoring, and technical documentation to ensure consistent fabrication, quality and yield.

Key Responsibilities

• Evaluate new processes, products, and materials specific to electronic assemblies
• Isolate process problems in soldering, harness fabrication, conformal coating, etching/marking, and flat pack forming
• Design and conduct simple experiments for process optimization in electronics contexts
• Prepare clear oral and written reports on process performance, discrepancies, and recommendations
• Monitor electronics fabrication processes, process controls, materials, and supplies
• Support electronic assembly fabrication: Surface Mount (SMT) soldering, Through-Hole soldering, harness wiring, and routing
• Check equipment functioning for proper operation; identify discrepancies in torquing, conformal coat application, etching/marking, flat pack forming, chemical mixing, and wiring
• Advise operators and inform engineers regarding electronic processes, procedures, equipment status, and corrective actions

Work Environment

• Electronics fabrication laboratory or cleanroom environment
• Work closely with engineers, operators, and quality personnel
• Follow electronics-specific quality, safety, and ESD (electrostatic discharge) procedures
• Role combines hands-on assembly, harness fabrication, process monitoring, and accurate documentation

Why You'll Love This Role

• Direct impact on electronics fabrication quality, yield, and reliability
• Hands-on work across diverse technical processes
• Collaboration with cross-functional engineering and operations teams
• Practical problem-solving in a technology-driven environment

Basic Qualifications

To be considered, candidates must meet all requirements listed:

• High school diploma or equivalent, or completion of a trade school program in a relevant field
• Experience in electronics assembly, soldering, harness fabrication, wiring, or related fabrication environment
• Ability to read and interpret electronic schematics, work instructions, and process specifications
• Strong attention to detail and documentation skills
• Strong teamwork and communication skills
• Must be a U.S. citizen and possess the ability to obtain and maintain a U.S. government Secret security clearance.

Desired Skills

Nice-to-have skills that strengthen candidacy but are not required:

• Experience evaluating new electronic processes or products
• Experience supporting mechanical/electronics processing operations
• Experience with SMT/through-hole processes, harness routing, procedures, conformal coating, and chemical mixing/handling
• Ability to communicate technical findings clearly to operators, engineers, or team members
