  • Load and unload PCBAs, ensuring correct orientation, fixturing, and program selection.
  • Start, stop, and adjust machine parameters as directed by work instructions or process documentation.
  • Monitor coating application for proper coverage, thickness, and alignment during production runs.

Process Monitoring & Quality

  • Perform in-process inspections using UV light, magnification, or inspection lamps to verify coating quality.
  • Identify coating defects such as skips, bubbles, bridging, overspray, or masking issues.
  • Escalate quality concerns or recurring defects to leads, supervisors, or process engineering.
  • Support minor touch-up or corrective actions as trained and approved.

Masking & Board Preparation

  • Apply and remove masking materials per work instructions prior to and after coating.
  • Prepare boards for coating by verifying cleanliness, masking integrity, and traveler accuracy.
  • Assist with demasking and post-coating handling to prevent damage to coated assemblies.

Equipment & Material Handling

  • Refill coating materials, solvents, and consumables following safety and handling procedures.
  • Perform routine machine cleaning and basic preventive maintenance tasks.
  • Maintain coating equipment, fixtures, and workstations in a clean and organized condition.
  • Properly label, store, and handle chemicals in accordance with safety and environmental requirements.

Documentation & Reporting

  • Accurately complete travelers, production logs, and inspection checklists.
  • Record lot information, machine settings (as required), and any process deviations.
  • Communicate production status, downtime, or issues during shift handoffs.

Compliance & Safety

  • Follow all manufacturing instructions, IPC workmanship standards, and ESD control procedures.
  • Adhere to chemical safety, PPE, and environmental regulations.
  • Maintain a clean, organized, and compliant work area at all times.

Qualifications

Preferred

  • Experience operating manufacturing or automated equipment in an electronics or PCBA environment.
  • Familiarity with conformal coating processes and materials (acrylic, silicone, urethane).
  • Ability to read and follow work instructions, travelers, and process documentation.
  • Basic understanding of IPC-A-610 standards or willingness to obtain certification.
  • Comfortable working with UV inspection tools and precision equipment.

Soft Skills

  • Strong attention to detail and process discipline.
  • Ability to work independently and as part of a production team.
  • Clear communication skills and willingness to escalate issues.
  • Dependable, safety-conscious, and quality-focused.

Physical Requirements

  • Ability to stand or sit for extended periods.
  • Fine-motor coordination for handling PCBAs and masking materials.
  • Ability to lift up to 20 lbs as required.

Benefits

  • 401(k) with company match

  • Paid time off and company holidays
  • Opportunities for advancement in a growing, high-tech manufacturing environment

Schedule
