About the Role

As a Process Technician at Rocket EMS, you will support and improve manufacturing processes to ensure high-quality, efficient, and repeatable printed circuit board assembly (PCBA) production.

This role requires technical aptitude, practical problem-solving skills, and the ability to follow and interpret manufacturing documentation. Candidates may qualify through a relevant technical degree, manufacturing experience, or a combination of education and experience. Prior electronics manufacturing experience is preferred.

Responsibilities

  • Review and interpret manufacturing process instructions (MPIs), engineering change orders (ECOs), deviations, assembly drawings, and customer specifications before production.
  • Set up, monitor, and adjust SMT, through-hole, and supporting manufacturing processes under engineering guidance to meet applicable IPC standards and customer requirements.
  • Assist with first article verification and new-build validation before production release.
  • Troubleshoot process-related issues involving solder paste printing, component placement, reflow, wave soldering, selective soldering, and related assembly operations.
  • Support engineers with process development, validation, and new product introduction (NPI) activities.
  • Collect and analyze process data to identify trends, investigate root causes, and recommend improvements.
  • Ensure compliance with electrostatic discharge (ESD), moisture-sensitive device (MSD), safety, and housekeeping requirements.
  • Train and mentor operators on approved work instructions, process requirements, and best practices.
  • Document process issues and approved changes, prepare shift pass-downs, and escalate unresolved concerns to engineering or quality management.
  • Participate in continuous improvement projects focused on improving yield, consistency, throughput, and manufacturing efficiency.
  • Support the setup, monitoring, and troubleshooting of polymerics processes, including conformal coating, staking, encapsulation, and underfill, in accordance with approved work instructions and customer requirements.

Skills and Abilities

  • Strong technical aptitude and a systematic approach to troubleshooting equipment or manufacturing process issues.
  • Ability to read and interpret work instructions, technical drawings, and manufacturing documentation.
  • Basic computer proficiency, including spreadsheets, data entry, and maintaining accurate records.
  • Ability to collect and review production data, perform basic calculations, and identify trends or inconsistencies.
  • Strong communication and teamwork skills, with the ability to collaborate across production, quality, and engineering.
  • Attention to detail and the ability to recognize, document, and communicate process deviations.
  • Ability and willingness to learn PCB assembly processes, IPC workmanship requirements, and applicable ESD and MSD practices.

Preferred Qualifications

  • 2+ years of experience in electronics manufacturing or process support within a contract manufacturing environment.
  • Familiarity with SMT, through-hole, reflow, and soldering processes.
  • Knowledge of PCB assembly workmanship requirements, including IPC Class 2 and Class 3.
  • IPC-A-610 and/or J-STD-001 certification.
  • Experience interpreting bills of materials (BOMs), PCB assembly drawings, and customer specifications.
  • Hands-on experience with soldering, inspection, or electronics assembly equipment.
  • Experience supporting root cause analysis, process improvement, or NPI activities.

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
