• Perform field service work, including electrical and mechanical assembly or retrofit activities at customer or off-site locations as needed.
• Maintain and continually improve the organization of the shop floor, tools, and materials to support efficient workflows.
• Contribute to the ongoing improvement of processes related to assembly, wiring, testing, and field service activities.

• Proven experience with mechanical and electrical assembly in a production or manufacturing environment.

• Ability to troubleshoot, test, and rework both electrical and mechanical systems to correct faults and optimize performance.
• Strong organizational skills to manage parts, materials, and components for multiple jobs on the shop floor.
• Capability to work independently from engineering instructions and prints, taking projects from start to completion on schedule.

• Experience with electronic assembly and wiring of cable harnesses, control cabinets, and related components.
• Comfort working with multi-discipline automation systems and automation work cells.
• Attention to detail and commitment to producing professional, high-quality finished assemblies.
• Ability to perform field service work, including on-site assembly, retrofits, and system adjustments.
