To make electronics, you need chips, wafers, transistors, reticles, and... To make these, you must see, test and manufacture them at scale—faster and better than ever before. That's where KLA comes in. Whether you're early in your career or an experienced professional, you'll solve complex challenges, work alongside brilliant minds and help shape the future of technology.

In this role, you will play a key part in advancing business priorities by delivering high-impact work across your area of expertise.

Join our manufacturing team and help build the advanced electronic, mechanical, and optical assemblies that power KLA-Filmetrics instruments. In this hands-on role, you'll follow documented instructions, complete assigned production work independently, troubleshoot basic issues, and ensure finished systems meet quality and shipment requirements.

  • Follow all assembly documentation and obtain technician review or sign-off at required checkpoints.
  • Perform basic mechanical, electrical, and optical troubleshooting; submit Production Tech Support and Non-Conformance requests when issues cannot be resolved.
  • Accurately document material, build, alignment, technical, and work-instruction issues and track Work Order progress in Click Up.
  • Adapt to changing priorities while maintaining quality, accuracy, schedule awareness, and an orderly work area.
  • Collaborate with technicians, manufacturing engineers, inventory control, and team members; prepare completed products for review, certification, packaging, and shipment.

Preferred Qualifications

  • High school diploma or equivalent and at least four years of manufacturing assembly experience, or an equivalent combination of education, training, and experience.
  • Ability to read and follow assembly documents, work instructions, and production requirements completely.
  • Experience assembling mechanical, electrical, electronic, or optical components and using basic hand tools and computers.
  • Basic mechanical and electrical knowledge with the ability to perform initial troubleshooting.
  • Strong attention to detail, quality, communication, teamwork, reliability, and punctuality.
  • Ability to work independently, seek support when needed, and manage changing priorities and deadlines.
  • Knowledge of electrostatic discharge practices for sensitive components.
  • Four to six years of relevant manufacturing or assembly experience.
  • Experience with optics, electro-optics, optical alignment, calibration, soldering, crimping, cable harnesses, or electronic test equipment.
  • Experience supporting multiple products, configurations, options, or upgrades.
  • Familiarity with Click Up or similar production-tracking systems and with documenting troubleshooting, Non-Conformance issues, or work-instruction updates.
  • Demonstrated ability to learn new products and contribute effectively in a fast-paced manufacturing team.

Requires a minimum of 4 - 6 years of related experience
