Technical Specialist- Wire Harness

The Re:Build AppliedLogix Team provides design expertise for all facets of modern digital product development - with custom analog and digital embedded electronics; VHDL and Verilog targeting FPGAs, embedded software on bare-metal, RTOS or Linux; full-stack application development (Linux and Windows). Our mechanical design capabilities include the packaging of embedded systems, tooling design, and manufacturing process development., * Fabricate initial prototype wire harnesses from engineering drawings and specifications, ensuring build quality throughout.

• Lead component inventory, including ordering, receiving, and verifying parts against purchase orders.
• Create and maintain travelers to track harness serial numbers and document QC checks for each harness built.
• Provide design-for-manufacturing (DFM) feedback to design engineers to improve build efficiency, repeatability, and cost.
• Run the Cadonix Arcadia part database and team access/user permissions, including part creation and quality control of part data.
• Maintain and organize the assembly area layout, tools, and calibration records to optimize workflow efficiency and safety.
• Collaborate closely during the prototype and build phases, supporting process improvement initiatives and maintaining clear documentation.

We are seeking a motivated Technical Specialist with hands-on wire harness fabrication skills to join our agile team. The ideal candidate will play a key role in our design services business, building high-quality prototypes and providing manufacturability feedback while working closely with design engineers and project managers to bring designs from concept to production-ready builds., * BS degree in Electrical Engineering Technology with 0-2 years of experience is required. Internship experience counts. Alternatively, candidates with an Electrical Technician background and 0-5 years of relevant hands-on experience are also eligible. This includes those with an Associate’s degree, technical certification, or equivalent trade training.

• Strong understanding of wire routing, crimping, soldering, and harness assembly techniques, with familiarity with hand tools and test/calibration equipment.
• Ability to read and interpret wiring diagrams, schematics, and bills of materials (BOM); awareness of industry standards (e.g., IPC/WHMA-A-620) is a plus.
• Familiarity with Cadonix Arcadia software (or willingness to be trained), including part database management, user administration, and traveler/serial number tracking.
• Self-starter with a strong sense of urgency and a “get it done” attitude, able to work effectively with minimal guidance.
• Comfortable handling a high degree of engineering change in a fast-paced, hands-on manufacturing/prototyping environment.
• Excellent communication and organizational skills, with the ability to collaborate closely with engineers and project managers and run inventory/ordering tasks accurately.
• Willing to travel up to 15% of the time to support prototype harness integration into client systems.

The hourly rate for this position is $28.00- $42.00. This range represents the Company’s good faith estimate of the base compensation for this role at the time of posting. Actual compensation will be determined based on several factors, including but not limited to relevant experience, skills, qualifications, internal equity, and geographic location.
