Nuand LLC — San Francisco, CA
Full-Time – $22–$26/hr

Nuand designs and manufactures bladeRF software-defined radio products in San Francisco. We are expanding our in-house electronics manufacturing operation and are looking for experienced PCB soldering and electronics assembly technicians.

This is a hands-on manufacturing position building sophisticated RF and digital electronics.

What You’ll Do

  • Hand solder printed circuit board assemblies
  • Solder RF connectors, headers, switches, wires, cables, and through-hole components
  • Perform SMT touch-up, component replacement, and PCB rework
  • Work with small and fine-pitch electronic components
  • Inspect solder joints and completed assemblies for workmanship and defects
  • Diagnose and repair assembly defects
  • Clean and depanel completed PCB assemblies
  • Perform mechanical and final product assembly
  • Perform basic electrical and functional testing
  • Follow assembly drawings, bills of materials, work instructions, and manufacturing procedures
  • Work directly with Nuand engineers to identify and resolve manufacturing problems
  • Maintain an organized and ESD-safe work area

What We’re Looking For

We are looking for people with hands-on electronics manufacturing experience. Relevant backgrounds include:

  • PCB soldering
  • Electronics assembly
  • PCB rework and repair
  • SMT rework
  • Through-hole assembly
  • Cable and harness assembly
  • PCB inspection
  • Electronics production and testing

Experience soldering fine-pitch components, QFNs, RF connectors, or other small electronic assemblies is especially useful.

Experience with IPC-A-610, J-STD-001, or IPC-7711/7721 standards is a plus, but certification is not required.

We care about practical manufacturing experience, attention to detail, reliability, and the ability to consistently produce high-quality electronics.
