Job Title: Cleanroom Assembler
Job Description

This role focuses on precision cleanroom assembly of catheter components used in the brain to help prevent aneurysms. You will spend most of your time working under a microscope, using small hand tools to assemble very small parts such as coiling wire and small tubing. Consistent attendance, attention to detail, and the ability to work long hours in a cleanroom environment are critical to success in this position.

Responsibilities

• Assemble small catheter components in a cleanroom environment according to detailed procedures and quality standards.
• Work under a microscope for extended periods to perform fine, detailed assembly work.
• Use small hand tools to handle, position, and assemble tiny parts, including coiling wire and small tubing.
• Follow all cleanroom protocols, including gowning procedures and contamination control practices.
• Maintain high levels of quality and accuracy while meeting production goals and timelines.
• Demonstrate reliable attendance and punctuality, especially during the first 90 days of employment.
• Participate in and pass a hands-on assessment to demonstrate basic assembly and hand tool skills.
• Collaborate and communicate effectively with team members while maintaining focus on quality and productivity.
• Work the assigned shift schedule, including long shifts and frequent overtime as needed.

Essential Skills

• Ability to work under a microscope for long periods of time.
• Proficiency using small hand tools for detailed assembly work.
• Capability to work long hours, including extended shifts and frequent overtime.
• Strong attention to detail and ability to perform precise, repetitive tasks.
• Reliable attendance and punctuality, especially within the first 90 days.
• Ability to pass a hand assessment test to demonstrate fine motor and assembly skills.
• Comfort working in a cleanroom environment and following strict procedures.

Additional Skills & Qualifications

• Previous cleanroom experience is highly desired.
• Prior manufacturing or production experience is strongly preferred.
• Openness to entry-level candidates who can demonstrate strong hand skills and dependability.
• Willingness to learn and improve performance over time.
• Ability to build positive working relationships while maintaining quality and productivity.

Why Work Here?

The organization offers a path from contract to permanent employment for individuals who demonstrate strong attendance, quality, and performance. Once hired on permanently, employees receive comprehensive benefits, including 100% coverage of their own benefits and partial coverage for their immediate family, along with a 401(k), paid time off, and holiday pay. The leadership values effort, dependability, and continuous learning rather than expecting instant expertise, and they provide multiple chances for those who show commitment and improvement.

Work Environment

You will work in a controlled cleanroom environment and must wear full gowning at all times, following strict cleanliness and contamination control procedures. The culture in the cleanroom is supportive and collaborative, with encouragement to talk and build good relationships as long as quality and productivity remain high. The typical schedule is 2nd shift, Monday through Saturday, from 3:30 p.m. to 12:00 a.m., with most employees currently working 10-hour days and often 6 days per week. Contractors generally work about 40 to 45 hours per week, with the expectation of long shifts and frequent overtime as needed.
