About This Role

The Work

You'll be inspecting printed circuit board assemblies; PCBA's; for our defense customers. The work is precise and follows strict standards.

  • Use X ray equipment to inspect surface mount and through hole components on PCBA's.
  • All inspection is done to IPC Class 3 standards, which is the highest reliability class.
  • A lot of this involves working under a microscope for detailed examination.
  • When you find an issue, you'll do the hand solder rework or touch up yourself.
  • You're working toward daily objectives where your output really matters for the team.

You'll operate with a good deal of independence, but you aren't on an island. You'll interact with different project teams, production teams, and various functions within the shop. It's a team environment where communication matters.

  • This role requires U.S. citizenship. You also need to possess, or meet the eligibility requirements to obtain and maintain, a U.S. Secret security clearance.
