MERITUS
are working with a leading technology and engineering consultancy to recruit a
Prototype Technician
to join their engineering team in
Romsey . The successful candidate will support the manufacture, modification, repair and testing of prototype
PCBs, cable forms and complex electro-mechanical assemblies , working closely with engineers, product managers and project teams across advanced technology programmes.
The Role
Working as part of the Prototype Technician Services team, you'll provide hands-on technical support across prototype manufacture, PCB assembly, cable manufacture, product modification, fault finding and repair. You'll work closely with the wider engineering community, helping to turn design concepts into functional prototypes while providing practical input around manufacturability, component selection and development.
Key Responsibilities
Manufacture prototype electronic assemblies in line with project requirements. Carry out
PCB assembly, modification, rework and repair , including fine-pitch surface-mount components. Work under magnification and microscopes for extended periods, including soldering and reworking components down to
0201 size . Undertake
BGA rework
and other complex PCB assembly activities. Manufacture and modify cable forms and wiring assemblies. Carry out electro-mechanical assembly and box-build activities. Interpret and work accurately from
engineering drawings, schematics and technical documentation . Provide technical support to engineers across PCB, cable and product design activities. Provide practical input into
design for manufacture (DFM)
and prototype development. Support component selection and advise on manufacturing approaches and emerging technologies. Fault find, diagnose and repair non-conforming or defective products. Produce and contribute to technical documentation including
test reports, concessions and work instructions . Provide troubleshooting assistance to the wider engineering community. Work closely with Engineers, Product Managers and Project Managers to deliver prototype requirements to agreed timescales. Support wider manufacturing and production activities where required. Ensure all work is completed in accordance with relevant internal procedures, quality requirements and industry standards.
