Electronics Technician - 0201 SMD Packages - Warwick - Zenovo

Description

Electronics Technician £40,000
Warwickshire

Zenovo are recruiting for an Electronics Technician to join a fast paced R&D team and work on board build/rework/repair of PCBs with tiny components.

You must have experience working with 0201 SMD packages

This is a hands-on role working in a creative, fast-paced R&D environment rather than a production setting. You will support the design, development, testing, and modification of electronic systems across multiple projects.

Our client is looking for someone that is skilled at under-the-microscope soldering and they need someone who can do the board build/rework/repair of PCBs with tiny components.

This role suits someone who is practical, adaptable, and collaborative, with a passion for building, modifying, and testing electronic prototypes.

Key Responsibilities:

Work in a design and development (R&D) environment, collaborating closely with engineers, designers, and project teams.
Manage multiple projects and priorities simultaneously, responding to varied requests throughout the day.
Interpret high-level briefs and proactively seek additional technical information where required.
Hand assemble, populate, modify, and rework PCBs, including fine-pitch surface-mount components and BGA packages.
Perform manual PCB modifications, including circuit changes, cut-and-strap rework, and construction of prototype circuits.
Build, modify, and repair small batches of prototype PCBs, cables, devices, and test fixtures.
Maintain accurate build records, including PCB modification histories and assembly states.
Test and fault-find electronic circuits, documenting results using standard laboratory test equipment.

Design, build, and safely commission the electrical and electronic aspects of test rigs, demonstrators, and exhibition models, ranging from small desktop devices to full-scale mock-ups.

Support the day-to-day operation of the electronics laboratory, including:

Ordering components and PCB assemblies
Maintaining lab equipment
Coordinating calibration and repairs
Carry out PCB layout tasks and assist with component library management using Altium Designer

Skills & Experience:


Extensive hands-on experience in fine-pitch hand soldering and PCB rework, including BGA components.
Strong practical knowledge of electronic circuits and systems.
Experience with cut-and-strap circuit modifications and prototype development.
A positive, can-do attitude, with excellent time management and attention to detail.
Enthusiasm for the full product development lifecycle, from concept through delivery.
A recognised qualification in Electronics (HNC, HND, or equivalent).
Some experience using PCB layout and electronic design tools.

Altium Designer experience is desirable, but training can be provided
