If you are a self-motivated technical expert who thrives in a dynamic, high-impact environment, we want you on our team.","responsibilities":"High-Precision EE Rework: Autonomously conduct complex board-level reworks, PCB modifications, and manual assemblies for next-generation electronics prototypes and test fixtures in accordance with engineer-submitted schematics or diagrams.

QC & Electrical Validation: Autonomously Perform hands-on quality control checks on all completed reworks. Use DMMs and other benchtop test equipment to verify electrical continuity, identify open/short circuits, measure component values, and validate that modified hardware functions as intended.

Manage the Lab Intake Queue: Process, prioritize, and log incoming rework requests through our tracking system, ensuring high-quality, documented, and timely completion.

Advise Engineers: Consult with engineers to identify optimal rework process and components to best enable research and robust hardware development.

Lab Space Upkeep: Keep the rework lab spaces organized, clean, and stocked with necessary consumables (solder, fluxes, solder-wick, components, tools, etc.).
