  • Cut, strip, crimp, and terminate small-gauge wires typically in the 20–32 AWG range.
  • Perform fine-pitch soldering on wires, connectors, and small PCBs as required.
  • Install PCBs, connectors, sensors, and wiring into housings and airframes.
  • Read and follow technical drawings, wiring diagrams, pinouts, and BOMs.
  • Inspect assemblies for workmanship, orientation, continuity, and cosmetic quality.
  • Perform basic electrical and continuity testing when required.
  • Apply labels, heat shrink, strain relief, and lightweight sleeving.
  • Document completed work and report assembly issues or deviations.
  • Maintain a clean, organized electronics assembly workstation.
  • Follow ESD, safety, and electronics handling procedures.

Required Qualifications:

  • Experience assembling small electronic or electro-mechanical products.
  • Experience building small wiring harnesses or electronic cable assemblies.
  • Comfortable working with fine-gauge wire and micro-connectors.
  • Ability to read and interpret technical drawings and wiring diagrams.
  • Strong attention to detail and consistency.
  • Good hand dexterity and fine motor control.
  • Ability to work onsite in a bench-level manufacturing environment.

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Experience in electronics manufacturing, robotics, UAVs, or avionics.
  • Soldering experience on small electronics and fine-gauge wiring.
  • Familiarity with JST, Molex Micro, Harwin, or similar connectors.
  • Experience with ESD-controlled environments.
  • Experience assembling low-volume, high-mix products.

Physical Requirements:

  • Ability to sit or stand at a bench for extended periods.
  • Ability to lift up to 25 lbs occasionally.

Why This Role Is Important:
This role directly supports the reliability and performance of American Robotics’ drone platforms. Precision electronics assembly and lightweight wiring harnesses are critical to system functionality, weight management, and long-term field reliability.
