• Follow gowning, housekeeping, FOD prevention, ESD control, and chemical safety requirements.
• Receive, inspect, clean, protect, label, package, and transport flight hardware.
• Perform mechanical, electrical, and mixed-assembly operations using drawings and work instructions.
• Install brackets, panels, fasteners, harness supports, thermal hardware, and other components.
• Perform torqueing, safety wiring, staking, bonding, shimming, potting, and alignment.
• Maintain accurate build records, inspection documentation, and electronic production records.
• Perform visual, dimensional, workmanship, cleanliness, and configuration inspections.
• Support functional checks, fit checks, and environmental testing like vibration and thermal-vacuum.
• Operate and maintain hand tools, torque tools, and precision measurement equipment.

Required qualifications

• Technical degree, certificate, apprenticeship, military training, or equivalent experience in manufacturing, mechanical, aerospace, electronics, composites, or a related field.
• Relevant experience in cleanroom manufacturing, aerospace, spacecraft, defense, medical devices, semiconductor, automotive, or precision manufacturing.
• Experience following detailed work instructions, engineering drawings, process specifications, travelers, or test procedures.
• Experience working in cleanroom, ESD-sensitive, FOD-critical, or contamination-controlled environments.
• Experience using hand tools, torque tools, precision measurement equipment, microscopes, fixtures, or production test equipment.
• Ability to perform detailed visual inspections and accurately document work performed.
• Ability to safely handle delicate, precision, and flight-qualified hardware.
• Ability to follow procedures while maintaining strong attention to detail and quality.
• Ability to work independently and collaboratively in a multidisciplinary team environment.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills.
• Ability to lift up to 25 pounds.
• Ability to work in and around constrained, confined, or physically demanding spaces.

Nice to have

• Experience working in spacecraft, satellite, aerospace, defense, semiconductor, medical-device, or other contamination-controlled manufacturing environments.
• Familiarity with cleanroom classifications, gowning requirements, contamination control, ESD protection, and FOD prevention.
• Experience with precision mechanical or electromechanical assembly.
• Experience with torque application, safety wiring, staking, shimming, bonding, potting, or adhesive application.
• Experience with calipers, micrometers, height gauges, optical equipment, microscopes, or coordinate measuring equipment.
• Familiarity with GD&T, engineering drawings, mechanical inspection practices, flight hardware, composite structures, thermal hardware, mechanisms, or deployment systems.
• Experience supporting vibration, acoustic, thermal-vacuum, or other environmental testing.
• Experience with material tracking, serialized hardware, configuration control, electronic travelers, or manufacturing execution systems.
• Experience supporting lean manufacturing, 5S, standard work, root-cause analysis, or continuous-improvement initiatives.
• Relevant certifications or training in cleanroom operations, ESD, rigging, mechanical assembly, machining, composites, quality inspection, or hazardous-material handling.
