Soldering Assembler - 2nd Shift

Solder Assembler

We are seeking a highly experienced Solder Assembler with deep expertise in both surface?mount technology (SMT) and through?hole soldering. The ideal candidate will be proficient in reworking and repairing a wide range of componentsincluding bottom?terminated devices such as QFNs, BGAs, and LGAsusing advanced rework equipment and X?ray inspection methods. This role supports high?mix, low?volume production of critical aerospace and defense electronics, requiring meticulous attention to detail and a strong commitment to quality.

Key Responsibilities

• Perform high?mix SMT and through?hole soldering on printed circuit boards (PCBs) in accordance with work orders, engineering drawings, and IPC standards.
• Remove, replace, and re?work components, including bottom?terminated devices (QFNs, BGAs, LGAs) using hot?air pencils, hot plates, reflow ovens, and specialty rework stations.
• Conduct X?ray inspection of re?worked bottom?terminated parts, evaluate solder joint integrity, and document findings.
• Execute board?level verification (visual, AOI, X?ray) and functional testing to ensure conformance to specifications.
• Interpret and follow engineering change orders (ECOs) and bills of materials (BOMs); apply "build?to?print" practices where required.
• Maintain cleanroom and ESD?controlled work areas; monitor and record equipment parameters (temperature, airflow, etc.).
• Participate in continuous?improvement initiatives, suggest process enhancements, and assist in training junior assemblers.
