About The Position

The Stator & Assembly Technician is a hands-on manufacturing role focused on building, assembling, and testing stator subassemblies, while also supporting electrical and battery-related operations across the production floor. The primary responsibility is stator work, with additional tasks in electrical harnessing, battery assembly, and troubleshooting. The role involves direct collaboration with Manufacturing Engineering, Quality, and Test teams during prototype, pilot, and early production stages. Candidates should have a strong interest in precision assembly and electromechanical systems and enjoy solving real-time build issues in a scaling production environment.

Requirements

2+ years in stator, motor/generator, or electromechanical assembly
Strong mechanical skills with tools (torque, hand, and power tools)
Able to read mechanical drawings, electrical schematics, and follow work instructions
Precision-focused with excellent attention to detail
Experience in fast-paced production or pilot settings
Comfortable working with electrical systems (HV training provided)
Basic computer literacy
High attention to detail
Mechanical/electrical troubleshooting
Commitment to safety and PPE compliance
Team-player, comfortable with cross-functional tasks
Adaptable and open to evolving responsibilities
Ability to lift and/or move up to 50-75 pounds.
Ability to travel, as needed, by plane, automobile, etc.
Onsite manufacturing or engineering lab setting
Standing, repetitive motion, and tool use required
Overtime may be necessary depending on production demands
We are not accepting candidates who require sponsorship for this position at this time.

Nice To Haves

Background in stator manufacturing, coil winding, or motor/generator work
Experience in battery or electrical subassemblies (EV, aerospace, industrial, etc.)
Familiarity with multimeters, insulation testers, and torque analyzers
Experience with R&D, pilot builds, or early-stage production
Relevant training/certifications such as: IPC/WHMA-A-620 High-Voltage Safety (Lv. 1–3) ESD or electrical safety
Understanding of Lean and 5S principles

Identify and escalate issues, defects, or process gaps
Handle electrical tasks such as harnessing, cable routing, terminations, connector installations, and grounding
Support battery module and subassembly assembly (fastening, insulation, connections)
Install components like sensors, harnesses, busbars, and comms lines
Assist with high-voltage tasks (training provided)
Use multimeters and diagnostic tools for troubleshooting
Perform continuity, insulation resistance, and basic functional testing
Support battery/electrical subassembly tests (Hi-Pot, IR, leak checks, visual inspection)
Troubleshoot build issues and assist in root cause analysis
Log test results and report out-of-spec conditions
Follow standardized work procedures, travelers, control plans, and safety protocols
Complete documentation such as serial logs, quality checklists, and production records
Support pilot builds, trials, and engineering change implementations
Offer feedback to improve tooling, workflow, and quality processes
Keep workstations clean and organized per 5S principles
