Full Job Description

As an SMT Operator at Rocket EMS, you will play a critical role in building high-reliability PCB assemblies by setting up, operating, and monitoring SMT production equipment. You'll run screen printers, SPI, pick-and-place machines, and reflow ovens to ensure every build meets IPC-A-610 Class 2 and 3 workmanship standards. This position requires strong technical aptitude, attention to detail, and the ability to follow precise build documentation in a fast-paced electronics manufacturing environment.

Set up and operate SMT equipment including:
- Screen printers
- Solder paste inspection (SPI) systems
- Pick-and-place machines (Fuji, Panasonic, Juki, etc.)
- Reflow ovens
Verify feeder setups, component orientation, reference designators, and correct loadouts according to the BOM.
Perform machine program loading, verification, and first-article checks as required.
Monitor machine performance, address mis-picks, placement errors, and stoppages promptly, and escalate recurring issues to the Lead, Engineer, or Supervisor.
Conduct visual and AOI pre-verification to ensure solder paste deposits, component placements, and reflow results meet IPC-A-610 standards.
Perform basic machine maintenance, cleaning, and calibration tasks according to established procedures.
Assist in first article builds, ensuring accuracy of placements, polarity, and component values.
Identify and correct SMT-related defects; escalate systemic issues to Engineering or Quality.
Maintain clean, organized work areas and follow all ESD, MSD, and handling procedures.
Record production data, downtime events, and pass-down information accurately.
Support other areas of production—such as AOI, rework, or kit prep—as directed by Supervisor, Engineer, or Manager.
Participate in continuous improvement initiatives and 5S activities to improve efficiency and quality.

Ability to read assembly drawings, MPIs, ECOs, and BOMs.
Strong understanding of component identification, polarity, and package types (0402, 0201, ICs, BGAs, QFNs, etc.).
Knowledge of solder paste application and reflow profiles.
Mechanical aptitude for troubleshooting minor machine issues.
Excellent attention to detail and commitment to high-quality workmanship.
Basic computer skills (Excel, Word, Outlook).
Clear written and verbal communication skills in English.
