DZYNE Technologies is seeking a skilled Electromechanical Assembly Technician to join our team specializing in the manufacturing of advanced unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs/drones). In this hands-on role, you will perform precise assembly of electromechanical systems, including light structural bonding, wiring harness installation, and integration of components for aerospace-grade drone platforms. You will work from detailed drawings, blueprints, and work instructions to ensure high-quality, reliable assemblies that meet strict aerospace standards.

A background in composites is highly desirable.

• Assemble electromechanical components and subassemblies for UAV/drone systems, including motors, actuators, sensors, control linkages, and related hardware.
• Perform light bonding operations using adhesives, resins, and bonding agents for composite-to-composite or composite-to-metal interfaces, following precise surface preparation, mixing, application, and curing procedures.
• Install and route wiring harnesses, crimp terminals, solder connections, and integrate electrical/electronic systems while adhering to ESD (electrostatic discharge) protocols and aerospace wiring standards.
• Read, interpret, and follow engineering drawings, blueprints, schematics, work instructions, and assembly sequences to ensure accurate build processes.
• Use hand tools, power tools, precision measuring instruments (calipers, micrometers, etc.), and fixtures/jigs to fit, align, and secure parts with close tolerances.
• Conduct in-process inspections, functional checks, and troubleshooting to identify and resolve assembly issues, ensuring compliance with quality and safety requirements.
• Support composite-related tasks when needed, such as layup preparation, trimming, finishing, or basic bonding of carbon fiber/fiberglass elements.
• Maintain a clean, organized workspace and follow all safety, FOD (foreign object debris), and aerospace manufacturing protocols.
• Collaborate with engineers, quality inspectors, and team members to improve assembly processes and contribute to continuous improvement initiatives.
• Document assembly steps, deviations, and test results as required.

• A & P license or military aircraft experience a plus.
• Background in composite materials fabrication, bonding, or assembly (e.g., carbon fiber, fiberglass, layup, vacuum bagging).
• Experience in drone/UAV manufacturing or related high-reliability electromechanical systems.
• Certifications such as IPC/WHMA-A-620 (wiring), J-STD-001 (soldering), or composite bonding training.
• Familiarity with aerospace tools, fixtures, and lean manufacturing principles.

• High School Diploma or equivalent.
• Technical/vocational training in assembly, electronics, or related field preferred.
• 4+ years of relevant successful work experience.
