Summary
The Level 3 Assembler is the go-to expert on the production floor, the person who can take a complex wire harness or cable assembly and bring it to life from start to finish. You'll be hands-on every day, tackling everything from precision soldering to detailed electrical terminations.

To shine in this role, you'll need an active IPC/WHMA-A-620 certification and solid experience building high reliability assemblies that meet strict industry and customer standards. We're looking for someone who loves the details, thrives in a technical environment, and knows their way around both manual and semi-automated electrical assembly. Basically, if you enjoy building complex things and making them look easy, you'll fit right in.

Responsibilities

• Take full ownership of building wire harnesses and cable assemblies from start to finish.

• This includes cutting, stripping, routing, terminating, bundling, and lacing wires.

• Build according to the latest revisions and version-controlled documents.

Production & Process Execution

• Follow all work instructions, travelers, and routing sheets accurately.

• Work efficiently in lean production cells and complete builds within expected time frames.

• Keep the workspace clean, organized, and compliant with ESD and 5S standards.

Required Qualifications

• Must have an active IPC/WHMA-A-620 Certified Specialist (CS) certification.

• J-STD-001 certification is a plus, but being willing to earn it after hire works too.

• Comfortably using a variety of tools, including:

  • Hand tools: soldering irons, wire strippers, crimpers, cutters, tweezers.

  • Test & assembly gear: continuity testers, magnifiers, heat guns, and semi-auto crimp presses.

Preferred Experience

• Experience working with wiring in industries like aerospace, defense, automotive, or medical devices.

• Comfortable soldering very small-gauge wires (30 AWG and smaller) and working with tiny connectors.

• Hands-on experience doing rework, repairs, or modifications based on customer or QA instructions.

• Familiar with build-to-print environments, low-volume/high-mix production, or prototype builds.

Physical Requirements

• Able to sit or stand at a workbench for long stretches of time.

• Strong hand-eye coordination and good vision for detailed, precision work.

• Comfortable lifting up to about 30 pounds on occasion.
