About The Position

Motr Technologies is hiring a Technician for hands-on motor production. The role involves learning and carrying out every step of the motor-building process while helping turn the founder’s knowledge into repeatable, documented procedures. The company expects the technician to begin by shadowing the founder and to help scale production as Motr moves into a new 4,100-square-foot production facility and customer demand grows.

The technician will work directly with the founder in an early-stage startup environment. The position offers direct mentorship and a potential growth path into full-time engineering work, including CAD and design projects, after demonstrating success on the shop floor.

Requirements

• Have built something of which you are proud and be excited to discuss it.
• Strong attention to detail and ability to focus on repetitive, precise assembly work.

• Interest in following a proven process while suggesting improvements as the company grows.
• Interest in joining an early team and comfort with a fast-moving, somewhat chaotic startup environment.

Responsibilities

• Perform hand soldering and epoxy overmolding.
• Run and tend coil-winding machines and other production equipment.
• Follow written standard operating procedures precisely and help improve and document them when gaps are found.
• Help set up the new facility by assembling workstations and installing and commissioning new equipment.
• Support the founder with day-to-day production tasks to help ship motors to customers.
