* Soldering, crimping, and carrying out detailed bench assembly work
* Assembling electro-mechanical products from engineering drawings and schematics
* Reading and interpreting wiring diagrams, schematics, BOMs, and technical drawings
* Supporting new product development and engineering change activities
* Carrying out modifications, rework, and updates during prototype stages
* Performing basic inspection and electrical checks, including continuity testing
* Working closely with engineers to resolve build issues and improve assembly processes
* Following technical instructions, build documentation, and test procedures
