About the Role
We are seeking a practical and detail-oriented Electronics Production Technician to join our friendly production team.
This is a hands-on role focused on the assembly, wiring, crimping, soldering, and inspection of electronic products, cable assemblies, and battery-powered equipment.

Working closely with production and engineering teams, you will follow work instructions, drawings, and SOPs to assemble and inspect products accurately and efficiently. You will also support product testing, fault investigation, customer returns (RMAs), and prototype or development work when required.
As part of a small and collaborative manufacturing team, workload can vary depending on customer orders and project requirements. While electronic assembly, wiring, and soldering activities form the core of the role, you will also support testing, inspection, engineering activities, and wider production tasks when required.
