Electrical Engineering Technologist - PCB & Prototype Support

Job Order ID: 4654; Employment Type: Permanent; Salary: $70,000 per year; Location: Brownsville, WI 53006. Electrical Engineering Technologist – PCB & Prototype Support. Join a steadily growing, specialized aerospace and defense manufacturer delivering high-reliability electronics. Work directly alongside design engineers to execute full-cycle prototype assembly, bench‑level testing, and circuit troubleshooting. This role is for an electronics specialist looking to move beyond repetitive assembly line work. What You Will Be Doing Assembling, soldering, and populating complex multi‑layer PCBs across prototype development and low‑volume production programs to strict IPC standards. Troubleshooting electrical assemblies, components, wire harnesses, and circuits independently to locate root‑cause failures and support ongoing engineering evaluations. Collaborating directly with design engineering to bring up initial boards, execute functional product testing, and manage smooth manufacturing startup activities. Assisting in the development of Bills of Materials (BOMs), sourcing specialized electrical components, and managing engineering lab equipment calibrations. Preparing detailed technical documentation, including draft assembly drawings, test reports, and structural calculations for electronic designs. Supporting continuous quality assurance initiatives in strict alignment with AS9100D aerospace and defense protocols. Managing multiple project support tasks simultaneously, adapting quickly to shifting program priorities on a fast‑paced team. What We Are Looking For Proven, hands‑on experience as an electronics technician or engineering technologist. An associate’s degree in electronics or electrical technology is preferred; a master technician with 10+ years of advanced bench experience is also welcomed. High proficiency in PCB assembly, rework, and soldering. Prior IPC certification or equivalent hands‑on mastery is a core requirement. Flawless ability to read, interpret, and trace electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, and engineering layout documentation. Strong, independent troubleshooting skills—comfortable using oscilloscopes, multimeters, and lab power supplies to isolate faults at the component level. Proactive professionalism that can take engineering guidance and run independently, managing priorities effectively. Additional Desired Skills (Not Required) Experience within an AS9100D or aerospace‑certified quality environment. Familiarity with power supply designs, board layout concepts, or custom optical/electronic systems. Basic exposure to 3D modeling software such as SolidWorks or circuit simulation tools such as PSpice. Experience in a military, defense‑adjacent, or ruggedized‑product manufacturing setting. Must be legally authorized to work in the United States without current or future sponsorship requirements. High‑reliability defense programs require strict adherence to regulatory standards. #J-18808-Ljbffr
