Description

As a PCBA Technician, you will perform a wide range of spacecraft assembly, rework, and diagnostic tasks to support the development and production of high-reliability avionics and flight hardware. You will work closely with electrical engineering, manufacturing, and test teams to ensure the highest levels of workmanship, quality and mission readiness.


Responsibilities

  • Read and interpret schematics, PCB layer stacks, BOMs, ECOs, and assembly drawings with high accuracy.
  • Perform high-quality soldering and SMT assembly/rework on a wide range of componentsizes and package types, including fine-pitch and high-density devices.
  • Assemble, modify, and repair PCBAs according to engineering instructions, including component replacements, wiring updates, and mechanical integration steps.
  • Conduct visual inspections and basic electrical checks to verify workmanship quality and identify assembly defects.
  • Operate and maintain standard electronics lab equipment, including microscopes, soldering stations, reflow tools, multimeters, and oscilloscopes.
  • Perform underfill, conformal coating, staking, and potting per spacecraft environmental requirements.
  • Follow strict ESD, FOD, and cleanroom protocols during all manufacturing evolutions.
  • Collaborate with EE, ME, and manufacturing teams to improve technical processes and resolve issues


Minimum Qualifications

  • 5+ years of hands-on experience in PCBA assembly, rework, or electronics technician roles.
  • Familiarity with IPC-A-610 or IPC-7711/7721 workmanship standards (formal certification is a plus)
  • Proficiency in soldering and rework of SMT and through-hole components, including fine-pitch packages.
  • Strong ability to read and interpret electrical schematics, assembly drawings, and PCB documentation.
  • Demonstrated experience performing component replacements, wire mods, jumpers, and board-level repairs.
  • Experience working with underfilling, conformal coating, staking, or potting materials.
  • Ability to follow detailed engineering instructions, work orders, and ECO-drive modifications.
  • Strong attention to detail and commitment to high-reliability workmanship.
  • Ability to work and collaborate effectively in a team-first environment, supporting cross-functional engineering, manufacturing, and test groups.
  • Willingness to adapt, learn, and embrace change in a fast-growing startup environment where processes and priorities evolve rapidly.


Preferred Skills and Experience

  • Prior experience working on aerospace, spaceflight, defense, or other high-reliability electronic systems.
  • IPC-A-610 or IPC-7711/7721 certification, or equivalent industry-recognized training.
  • Experience supporting prototype hardware builds, first-article assemblies, or rapid-turn engineering modifications.
  • Working knowledge of cable and harness fabrication.
