Job Description

Avionics Assembly Technician Role Summary The Electronics Assembler is a vital execution role within the production team at Allocortech, Inc. Operating in a fast-paced, high-growth environment, the incumbent is responsible for the mechanical assembly, wiring, and integration of flight-critical electronics for production UAV, eVTOL, and advanced marine programs. Reporting directly to the Director of Operations / Production, the Associate transforms printed circuit boards (PCBAs) and structural components into certified avionics, power distribution hubs, and flight computers. This role suits a detail-oriented, high-dexterity professional who takes personal pride in the craftsmanship of safety-critical hardware. Core Responsibilities Precision Assembly & Integration Assemble complex electromechanical units, including flight computers, motor controllers, and battery management enclosures, using specialized hand tools and calibrated torque drivers. Fabricate, crimp, route, and terminate wire harnesses and connectors per engineering drawings and schematics. Mount components and hardware into chassis housings, ensuring perfect mechanical fit and alignment. Apply conformal coatings, epoxies, and thermal interface materials precisely to safeguard assemblies against harsh aerospace environments. Quality Control & ESD Compliance Handle all assemblies and hardware in strict accordance with Allocortech ESD safe-handling procedures (including wrist straps, static-dissipative mats, and protective packaging). Conduct visual self-inspections to proactively identify mechanical misalignment, loose hardware, or component damage prior to final testing. Document and flag build discrepancies or Bill of Materials (BOM) anomalies directly to production engineering to prevent line bottlenecks. Production Logistics & ERP Support Review production travelers, engineering drawings, and schematics to guarantee complete technical compliance during the build process. Track and update build status digitally inside the company
ERP / MRP
system, logging serial numbers and batch tracking with high data-entry accuracy. Maintain tool calibration logs and clean-room workstation organization in compliance with OSHA and AS9100 requirements.
Required Qualifications Experience:
Minimum 1-2 years of hands-on electronics assembly experience, including a verified track record with wire harness fabrication and assembly.
Education:
High school diploma or GED equivalent.
Technical Skills:
Ability to accurately read and interpret blueprints, engineering drawings, wire lists, and multi-layered wire routing diagrams.
Aptitude:
Strong mechanical aptitude and comfort working with standard hand tools, wire strippers, crimpers, and digital calipers.
Citizenship:
Must be a U.S. Person (U.S. citizen, lawful permanent resident, or protected individual as defined under
ITAR 22 C.F.R.
§ 120.15) due to export control requirements on flight hardware.
Physical Capabilities:
Accurate color vision for wire color-code identification; manual dexterity for manipulation of tiny components; corrected vision sufficient to inspect small hardware; ability to sit or stand for extended assembly periods. Preferred Qualifications Hands-on soldering and rework experience (through-hole or SMT) is a strong plus, though not required. Active or previous certifications in IPC-A-610, IPC-A-620, or
J-STD-001.
Experience building aerospace avionics, power conversion equipment, or complex electric systems. Familiarity with AS9100 or
ISO 9001
quality management assembly rules. What Success Looks Like at 90 Days Day 30: Seamlessly navigating Allocortech production travelers and building core sub-assemblies independently with standard internal yield rates. Full mastery of local ESD and safety policies. Day 60: Achieving zero documentation or tracking errors in the ERP system while tracking serial numbers through assembly milestones. Day 90: Maintaining 100% on-time delivery of flawless assemblies to the Electronics Test Technician queue, directly accelerating production velocity.
