Non-Exempt Why this role matters Every assembly you complete and test contributes to the reliability of life-safety technology in the field. Your craftsmanship, documentation discipline, and eye for nonconformances help us ship quality on time—every time. How you'll contribute Build electronic products/subassemblies using hand tools and fixtures (screwdrivers, torque tools, crimpers, cutters, strippers). Perform wiring, cable prep, and connector install to spec; route and dress wires to workmanship standards. Interpret work orders, BOMs, drawings, schematics (as applicable), and written instructions. Execute in-process and final inspections; complete required documentation. Use basic test gear—multimeters, continuity testers, power supplies—and record results. Spot defects, segregate suspect material, and communicate with supervisors/quality. Keep travelers, lot traceability, and time/quantity data accurate and current. Maintain a 5S workspace—organized, clean, and stocked. Adhere to safety, ESD, and company policies; take on other production tasks as needed. Grow with us Build foundations in
