Job Description
Teknek was founded over 40 years ago in the UK and designs and produces specialised equipment which removes particle contamination from a wide range of materials used in modern manufacturing. Particles cause defects during manufacturing processes, and as such they can have an adverse effect on production yields as well as in field failures.
Teknek invented the contact cleaning concept and its technology is used in a range of industries from PCB production to flat panel manufacture, medical products to printing and packaging.
Teknek requires a Laboratory Technician to perform a range of standardised material testing procedures on new production output. These procedures are key to ensuring the highest level of quality is maintained across our market leading adhesive consumable and polymer cleaning products. This is a fully on-site role within a laboratory environment with training provided.
Join us in advancing scientific innovation through meticulous research, rigorous quality control, and dedicated teamwork. This role offers a rewarding environment where your expertise directly contributes to impactful outcomes in product excellence.
