Key Responsibilities
- Assemble and wire high-voltage power supplies, prototypes, and electrical subassemblies.
- Work from schematics, wiring diagrams, mechanical drawings, BOMs, and assembly instructions.
- Carry out soldering, crimping, cable preparation, panel wiring, and general assembly.
- Use Multimeters, oscilloscopes, and other test equipment.
- Perform inspections, continuity checks, and functional testing.
- Support fault-finding, calibration, and high-voltage testing following training and authorisation.
- Record test results and prepare technical reports.
- Assist with BOMs, wiring diagrams, assembly instructions, and test procedures.
- Support engineering changes, product improvements, and prototype development.
- Follow all health, safety, quality, and ESD procedures.
- Work closely with Engineering, Production, and Quality teams.
