About The Position

Milwaukee Electronics is hiring an Assembler/Solderer who takes pride in doing precise, quality work. If you've got IPC Class 2 soldering skills and a sharp eye for detail, we want to hear from you. First shift, Monday–Friday, 6:30 AM–3:00 PM — no weekends.

You'll build small electronic PCB assemblies and subassemblies from the ground up — soldering through-hole, surface-mount, and fine-pitch components by hand, depaneling finished boards, and inspecting your own work against IPC Class 2 standards. When something doesn't look right, you speak up. When there's a better way to do something, you say so.

Requirements

• High school diploma or GED
• Experience in electronics manufacturing or high-tech assembly
• Demonstrated IPC Class 2 soldering capability — you'll complete a hands-on soldering assessment as part of the process
• Experience with depaneling operations
• Ability to read assembly drawings, blueprints, and written work instructions
• Strong attention to detail and a quality-first mindset
• Clear, professional communication — especially when something needs to be flagged
• Basic math skills and ability to read simple quality metrics
• English proficiency (reading, writing, and comprehension of work instructions and safety procedures)

Responsibilities

• Hand-soldering small-board assemblies to IPC Class 2 workmanship standards
• Stuffing, prepping, and mechanically assembling parts and subassemblies
• Depaneling boards accurately and safely
• Inspecting finished assemblies to confirm they meet quality and customer specs
• Identifying and escalating defects or process concerns promptly
• Maintaining accurate production counts, inspection records, and deviation logs
• Participating in Continuous Improvement and Lean activities
• Keeping your workspace clean, organized, and 6S-compliant
