Manufacturing Technician – Wire Harness (WH)

About the role

The Manufacturing Technician (WH) provides hands‑on technical support on the production floor, focusing on wire‑harness assembly and fine‑wire termination for medical devices. The role combines troubleshooting, design, and quality activities to ensure efficient, compliant manufacturing.

Key responsibilities

• Provide direct technical assistance on the shop floor to resolve flow issues and complex assembly challenges.
• Design and draft fixtures, routing (lay) boards, and component prototypes using SolidWorks (3D/2D).
• Identify and implement continuous‑improvement actions to boost production efficiency and workstation layout.
• Measure parts, create prototypes, and develop testing schemes for fine‑wire termination and connectors.
• Support CAPA and FMEA activities and execute equipment and line validation (IQ/OQ/PQ) under medical‑device regulations.
• Produce and review manufacturing work instructions, technical drawings, proposals, and data‑analysis reports.
• Ensure processes comply with ISO 13485, 21 CFR 820, and IPC/WHMA‑A‑620 criteria for wire harnesses.

Required profile

• Technical degree in electromechanics or a related field; advanced B.S. engineering student (electrical, industrial, manufacturing) is a plus.
