Hardware Assembly Technician

Eyebot•Boston, MA

1d•$27 - $33•Onsite

About The Position

Eyebot is hiring a Hardware Assembly Technician for its Charlestown production floor. The technician takes vision-test kiosks through final assembly, calibration, testing, inspection, and crating for shipment. Work is split between team-based floor tasks and precision bench work. Floor work includes uncrating and re-crating kiosks weighing 300 pounds, standing kiosks upright in pairs, and moving palletized kiosks with a manual pallet jack. Bench work includes wiring, mounting boards, and fitting small hardware at a station where the technician may sit or stand. The technician follows photo-based, step-by-step work instructions and works alongside technicians and engineers. The role reports to the line supervisor, who runs the production floor day to day. No kiosk experience is required; training is provided on the floor using written work instructions. Written expectations are provided on the first day, with weekly check-ins with the line supervisor during the first month. Benefits begin after the 30-day introductory period. The position is full-time W-2, with overtime available once the technician is up to speed if desired. The long-term opportunity may include more responsibility as the team grows.
