Together, We Can Make A Significant Impact

As a SMT Technician, these positions are crucial in supporting our customers with high-fidelity systems through both hands-on sessions and back-end data processing work. The focus of these roles is on electronics manufacturing, specifically assembling and testing electronic components onto circuit boards and substrates. This involves process control and requires a high level of precision. It demands expert-level operation and programming of automated assembly and inspection machinery, such as Automated Optical Inspection (AOI) and X-ray systems. Mastery of these precision equipment operations is essential for ensuring the quality and reliability of the products we deliver to our customers.
