Xona's Manufacturing team is responsible for developing and implementing the processes used to manufacture, assemble, test, and integrate the mechanical and electro-mechanical hardware that goes into our satellites. We are looking for a Manufacturing Technician to support hands-on assembly, inspection, testing, and production activities for satellite subsystems and flight hardware.

The Manufacturing Technician will support the development and manufacturing of satellite subsystem prototypes at Xona Space Systems' Montreal facility. The technician will work closely with Manufacturing and Engineering teams to assemble, modify, inspect, test, and troubleshoot prototype components and subassemblies.

The role requires strong hands-on skills, attention to detail, and the ability to work with precision hardware in a controlled manufacturing environment. The technician will contribute to the transition of prototype designs into repeatable manufacturing processes by providing practical feedback on assembly methods, tooling, fixtures, and work instructions.

RESPONSIBILITIES

- Assemble prototype components, mechanisms, electronics, and satellite subsystem subassemblies according to engineering drawings, procedures, and work instructions.

- Support engineering builds from initial prototypes through production readiness, including parts preparation, kitting, tooling, and equipment setup.

- Perform precision mechanical and electronic assembly, including soldering, wire/harness preparation, connector installation, and basic electrical assembly and testing.

- Perform installation, adjustment, dimensional and visual inspection using appropriate hand tools, torque tools, measurement, and inspection equipment.

- Support prototype functional and environmental testing, including vibration, thermal vacuum, thermal shock, and qualification activities.

- Troubleshoot assembly, electronic, and test issues; identify manufacturing and quality concerns and provide hands-on feedback to Engineering and Manufacturing.

- Build and modify fixtures, tooling, and simple prototypes, and operate prototype manufacturing equipment such as 3D printers and workshop equipment.

- Support the development and improvement of manufacturing documentation while maintaining traceability and following ESD, clean room, FOD, safety, and other applicable requirements.

QUALIFICATIONS

- Technical diploma or college diploma in Mechanical Engineering Technology, Electromechanics, Aerospace, Manufacturing, or a related field.

- Experience with mechanical assembly, prototyping, manufacturing, or testing.

- Ability to read and interpret mechanical drawings, assembly drawings, and work instructions.

- Experience using precision hand tools and measurement equipment.

- Experience with torque-controlled assembly is an asset.

- Experience with aerospace, space, medical, automotive, robotics, or other precision manufacturing environments is an asset.

- J-STD-001 Class 3 certification is an asset.

- Experience with environmental testing or qualification activities is an asset.

- Knowledge of ESD, FOD control, clean-room practices, and hardware traceability is an asset.

Elle travaillera en étroite collaboration avec les équipes de fabrication et d’ingénierie afin d’assembler, de modifier, d’inspecter, de tester et de dépanner des composants et des sous-ensembles prototypes.

Ce poste exige d’excellentes habiletés manuelles, un grand souci du détail ainsi qu’une capacité à travailler avec du matériel de précision dans un environnement de fabrication contrôlé. La personne titulaire du poste contribuera au passage des prototypes à des procédés de fabrication reproductibles en fournissant une rétroaction pratique sur les méthodes d’assemblage, l’outillage, les montages et les consignes de travail.

Responsabilités

- Assembler des composants prototypes, des mécanismes, des composants électroniques et des sous-ensembles de systèmes satellitaires conformément aux dessins techniques, aux procédures et aux consignes de travail.

- Participer aux activités d’assemblage d’ingénierie, depuis les premiers prototypes jusqu’à la préparation à la production, notamment en assurant la préparation des pièces et des trousses de composants ainsi que la mise en place de l’outillage et de l’équipement.

- Effectuer des travaux d’assemblage mécanique et électronique de précision, notamment la soudure, la préparation de fils et de faisceaux de câbles, l’installation de connecteurs ainsi que des travaux de base d’assemblage et d’essai électriques.

- Effectuer l’installation et le réglage des composants ainsi que des inspections dimensionnelles et visuelles à l’aide d’outils manuels, d’outils dynamométriques et d’équipements de mesure et d’inspection appropriés.

- Participer aux essais fonctionnels et environnementaux des prototypes, notamment aux essais de vibration, sous vide thermique et de choc thermique ainsi qu’aux activités de qualification.

- Diagnostiquer les problèmes liés à l’assemblage, aux composants électroniques et aux essais; cerner les enjeux de fabrication et de qualité et fournir une rétroaction pratique aux équipes d’ingénierie et de fabrication.

- Fabriquer et modifier des montages, de l’outillage et des prototypes simples, et utiliser des équipements de fabrication de prototypes, notamment des imprimantes 3D et de l’équipement d’atelier.

- Participer à l’élaboration et à l’amélioration de la documentation de fabrication, tout en assurant la traçabilité et en respectant les exigences applicables en matière de protection contre les décharges électrostatiques (DES), de contrôle des corps étrangers (FOD), de salle blanche, de santé et de sécurité ainsi que toute autre exigence pertinente.

Qualifications

- Diplôme d’études collégiales (DEC) ou diplôme technique en technologie du génie mécanique, en électromécanique, en aérospatiale, en fabrication ou dans un domaine connexe.

- Expérience en assemblage mécanique, en prototypage, en fabrication ou en essais.

- Capacité à lire et à interpréter des dessins mécaniques, des dessins d’assemblage et des consignes de travail.

- Expérience dans l’utilisation d’outils manuels de précision et d’équipements de mesure.

Why it works

3×

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.
