Electrical Harness Technician
San Carlos, CA$40k - $50kFull-timePosted 4w ago
About the role
Harness Technician focused on wiring and harness assemblies for the NEO humanoid robot, ensuring high-quality, repeatable builds and fast rework/production support in a hands-on, fast-paced environment.
Responsibilities
- Deliver wire harnesses and cable assemblies that consistently meet IPC-620 acceptance criteria, with first-pass yield held to a high, measurable standard.
- Own continuity and fault-isolation testing on completed harnesses so that defects are caught and resolved before assemblies move downstream.
- Support a mix of work that changes day to day - most often building harnesses for prototype testing, and at times assembly and rework for production - and shift gears smoothly between the two.
- Perform on-bot reworks and on-bot debugging with confidence, isolating and resolving issues directly on the robot.
- Reduce build and rework time on recurring harness builds by improving process, fixturing, and documentation alongside engineering.
- Maintain accurate, traceable records of work performed, surfacing design and process issues early enough to influence design-for-manufacturability decisions.
- Work independently with minimal hand-holding, taking verbal direction well and running with it to keep the workspace safe, organized, and audit-ready.
Qualifications
- High school diploma or equivalent, with 2–3+ years of direct experience in wire harness fabrication and assembly.
- Proven ability to read and interpret electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, and assembly drawings.
- Proficiency with hand tools (crimpers, strippers, heat guns) and measurement tools (multimeter).
- IPC-620 certification.
- Strong soldering skills and solid troubleshooting ability to diagnose open/short circuits and connection issues (J-STD-001 is ideal but not a deal breaker).
