Join Our Team & Help Build the Future of Electric Propulsion

ePropelled is a leading innovator in high-efficiency electric propulsion systems, and we are expanding our UK production team. We are seeking a Production Build Technician with electronics and PCBA experience, with a strong focus on motor controller and power electronics assembly.

This role is ideal for someone with hands-on experience in electronic assembly, system integration, and working with power electronics, who takes pride in precision, quality, and reliability.

What You’ll Do

As part of our UK manufacturing team, you will:

  • Assemble and integrate motor controllers, power electronics units, and associated electromechanical systems.
  • Work with pre-assembled PCBAs, integrating them into enclosures, heatsinks, and higher-level assemblies.
  • Perform cable harnessing, high- and low-voltage wiring, and connector assembly.
  • Carry out occasional PCBA tasks, including:
    • Through-hole soldering and basic SMT rework
    • Minor rework, repair, or component replacement
    • Inspection and validation of supplied PCBAs
  • Carry out functional testing and basic diagnostics on motor controllers and power electronics systems.
  • Support debug, fault finding, and rework activities in collaboration with engineering teams.
  • Perform visual and mechanical inspection to ensure assemblies meet high-quality and reliability standards.
  • Maintain accurate build records, traceability, and test documentation.
  • Use appropriate tools and equipment, including torque drivers, crimp tools, and electronic test equipment (e.g. multimeters, power supplies).
  • Maintain a clean, organized, and efficient workstation in line with 5S and lean manufacturing practices.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
