About the job
Requirements
Demonstrated experience assembling complex electromechanical systems, including motors, drives, enclosures, harnesses, and mechanical assemblies.
Experience building and wiring electrical panels and enclosures in an industrial environment.
Ability to read and interpret electrical schematics, single-line diagrams, and three-line diagrams for assembly and troubleshooting.
Familiarity with programmable logic controller hardware and industrial control components in a build or commissioning context.
Hands-on troubleshooting ability, including following a signal, reading a meter, and helping an engineer isolate a problem.
Ability to work independently from engineering documentation with minimal direction.
Ability to work in a detail-oriented and process-driven manner, understanding that build quality determines machine reliability.
Experience working closely with engineers in a laboratory or development environment.
Willingness to travel as needed for on-site equipment installation and commissioning.
Responsibilities
Assemble complex electromechanical systems from engineering drawings, bills of materials, and work orders, including motors, drives, sensors, actuators, and mechanical assemblies.
Build, wire, and dress electrical panels and enclosures according to engineering documentation and industry standards.
Fabricate and terminate cable and wire harnesses, including crimping, pinning, and connector assembly.
Integrate programmable logic controller hardware, motor drives, and associated control components into machine assemblies.
Work alongside engineers during system bring-up, supporting wiring verification, input/output checkout, and sensor calibration.
Read and interpret electrical schematics, single-line diagrams, and three-line diagrams to support troubleshooting and commissioning.
Identify and communicate build issues, fit and function problems, and documentation gaps to the engineering team.
Help establish build standards, assembly processes, and shop practices as the team grows around the role.
Maintain a clean, organized, and well-documented shop environment, including tools, inventory, and work in progress.
Work at a startup pace where priorities shift and builds iterate quickly.
Desired Qualifications
Exposure to printed circuit board assembly, soldering, or electronics build work.
Experience with precision mechanical assembly involving tight tolerances, bearings, shafts, and couplings.
Familiarity with specific programmable logic controller platforms such as Beckhoff, Allen-Bradley, Siemens, or similar.
Experience in a hard technology, robotics, or aerospace environment.
Startup or small-team experience helping define how things are built.
About Us
We are a venture-backed manufacturing startup building the most advanced automated production facilities in the United States. We are on a mission to make American manufacturing economically viable — through intelligent machinery, automation, and a relentless focus on execution.
We are early, we are moving fast, and we are looking for exceptional people who want to build something that matters.
Role Summary
We're hiring our first Electromechanical Assembly Technician — someone who will set the standard for how we build machines. This role owns the physical assembly of complex electromechanical systems: motors, drives, enclosures, wire harnesses, and the full mechanical and electrical integration of industrial manufacturing equipment.
Responsibilities
Assemble complex electromechanical systems from engineering drawings, BOMs, and work orders — including motors, drives, sensors, actuators, and mechanical assemblies
