Job Description
Do you tinker with electronics on weekends? Build amplifiers, fix old radios, or chase down problems with a scope and a multimeter? Read on. RDO Induction (a Fancort Industries company) builds the induction heating power supplies that solder satellites, harden gears, and braze aerospace parts. We are hiring a hands-on technician to build, tune, and troubleshoot these systems in our lab, on the bench, and at customer sites. You do not need induction heating experience. We will train you. We need someone who already understands electricity at the gut level — what a resonant tank circuit does, why a MOSFET gets hot, how to read a schematic and not blow yourself up — and is curious enough to learn the rest. This role grows into Applications Engineering as you build expertise. The ceiling is wherever your curiosity takes you. What You Will Actually Do Build and test induction power supplies, work coils, and load setups on the bench. Run structured experiments in our lab and write up what you found. Travel to customer sites a few times a month to start up equipment, tune coils, and solve problems. Wire prototypes, machine simple fixtures, and help R&D iterate on new designs. Document everything — coil signatures, QA logs, experiment notes — so the next person can repeat your work. Must Have Strong electrical fundamentals — you can explain inductance, capacitance, resonance, and switching power conversion to someone else. Comfortable reading schematics and working safely inside live power systems. Hands-on troubleshooting instincts. You reach for a scope before a Google search. Mechanical aptitude — you are not afraid of a drill press, a torque wrench, or a TIG welder. Willingness to travel ~20% and talk to customers like a human being. Clear technical writing — short, factual, no jargon dumps. Nice to Have (We Train the Rest) Power electronics or RF background — welding power supplies, motor drives, VFDs, audio amps, ham radio, switching supplies, microwave. Military electronics MOS — Navy ET / FC / AT, Air Force 2A avionics, Army 94E. PLCs, oscilloscopes (you should already own one), thermal imaging, process engineering. Resonant circuit experience of any kind, including hobby projects — Tesla coils, induction cooktops, plasma speakers, tube amps all count. Associate's degree, trade school certificate, or military electronics school. A four-year EE is great but absolutely not required. What We Offer $75K - $95K depending on experience. 401(k), health insurance, paid time off, flexible schedule. A clear path to Applications Engineer with a real raise when you get there. Small company, no bureaucracy. Your work ships and you see it work. A lab with toys most engineers only read about. How to Apply Apply through Indeed. In your cover note, tell us about something you have built, fixed, or figured out. One paragraph is plenty. We read every application personally. If you are wondering whether your background fits — apply anyway and let us decide.
