What You'll Bring: The Must-Haves 

  • Associate’s Degree (or equivalent training) + 3 years of hands-on experience in a hardware Technician role, with a focus on prototype assembly. 
  • Expertise with a wide variety of hand tools, power tools, and measurement equipment (calipers, multimeters, etc.). 
  • Proven ability to perform detailed wiring, harnessing, and soldering. 
  • Highly organized, proactive, and independent. Ready to thrive in a startup environment. 
  • Willingness to travel up to 25% for field repair and system installation.
