Ability to read and interpret engineering drawings, specifications, work instructions, and assembly procedures.
Hands-on experience assembling complex mechanical parts and systems.
Working knowledge of mechanical assembly methods, fasteners, torque requirements, bonding processes, and precision tools.
Experience maintaining detailed manufacturing, assembly, or quality documentation.
Ability to work independently while collaborating with engineers, technicians, quality personnel, and other cross-functional teams.
Strong attention to detail and commitment to safety, quality, and procedural compliance.
Ability to work the assigned day, swing, or weekend shift.

Preferred Qualifications

Previous experience supporting satellite, spacecraft, aerospace, defense, or other high-reliability hardware.
Experience with flight-hardware integration, structural bonding, RF components, cable harnesses, antennas, or thermal blankets.
Experience operating cranes, man lifts, tugs, or specialized handling equipment.
Familiarity with electrostatic discharge controls, contamination control, and controlled manufacturing environments.

Physical and Workplace Requirements

Candidates must be able to:

Lift and move materials weighing up to 50 pounds.
Work from ladders up to 18 feet high.
Work from platforms and man lifts up to 40 feet high.
Work in confined spaces, including spacecraft interiors, thermal vacuum chambers, and acoustic chambers.
Work while lying flat on their chest on an extended platform for significant portions of the shift.
Perform repetitive reaching, bending, climbing, standing, and precision assembly activities.
Remain within the rated weight capacity of ladders, platforms, and specialized access equipment.
