Job Opening: Soldering Manual Repair Tech
Description
Now Hiring! Soldering Repair Technician
2nd Shift Schedule: 2:30 PM – 11:00 PM (Monday – Friday)
Pay $18.00 per hour
Position Summary We are seeking a skilled and detail-oriented Soldering Repair Technician to join our 2nd shift team. This role involves performing precision soldering work on Printed Circuit Board Assemblies (PCBA), including manual solder touch-up, component replacement, and repair.
The ideal candidate has hands-on soldering experience, technical knowledge of electronic assemblies, and a strong commitment to quality. About Soldering in Assembly In electronics manufacturing, soldering is the process of joining electrical components to a circuit board by melting a filler metal (solder). This creates both a mechanical bond and an electrical connection that ensures the component functions reliably within the circuit. Manual soldering requires great precision, as components are often extremely small and densely packed on the board. Skilled soldering ensures connections meet IPC industry standards for durability and performance.
What is PCBA?
A Printed Circuit Board Assembly (PCBA) is a circuit board that has its electronic components such as resistors, capacitors, diodes, transistors, microchips, and connectors soldered and mounted in place. These components control the flow of electricity and signals across the device. As a Soldering Repair Technician, you’ll play a critical role in ensuring defective or misaligned parts are repaired or replaced to restore full functionality.
The Boards You’ll Work On You will work on Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs), which serve as the foundation of nearly all electronic devices. Through-Hole Boards – Components with wire leads that are inserted into drilled holes and soldered on the opposite side. Surface-Mount Technology (SMT) Boards – Miniaturized components soldered directly to the surface of the board. Technicians must be comfortable with both technologies, performing precise soldering and rework on small, delicate parts
