BASIC QUALIFICATIONS (REQUIRED SKILLS/EXPERIENCE):

  • 6 years in SMT/TH solder assembly and rework only.
  • Candidate must have a strong documented soldering background.
  • Candidates must be able to read/write English.
  • Candidate must take and pass a medical exam.

    • POSITION RESPONSIBILITIES:

    We are seeking a highly experienced Solder Assembler to join our precision electronics manufacturing team. The successful candidate will be an expert in both surface-mount technology (SMT) and through-hole soldering, with a proven track record of removing, repairing, and replacing a wide variety of components—including bottom-terminated parts such as QFNs, BGAs, and LGAs. The role requires hands-on use of advanced rework equipment and the ability to verify workmanship using X-ray inspection techniques.
  • Perform high-mix, low-volume assembly and inspection of solder joints on SMT and through-hole components on complex printed circuit boards (PCBs).
  • Execute removal, replacement, and repair of bottom-terminated components (QFNs, BGAs, LGAs) using hot-air pencils, hot plates, and other rework tools.
  • Conduct precise reflow, pre-heat, and cooling cycles to meet component-specific thermal profiles.
  • Operate and maintain X-ray inspection equipment to evaluate solder joints on hidden pads and verify rework quality.
  • Interpret engineering drawings, work orders, and Bill of Materials (BOM) to ensure correct component placement and orientation.
  • Perform in-process quality checks (visual, AOI, X-ray) and document results per quality system requirements.
  • Troubleshoot solder-related defects (e.g., tombstoning, voids, solder bridges) and implement corrective actions.
  • Maintain ESD-controlled environments; follow all safety and compliance procedures.
  • Contribute to continuous-improvement initiatives, suggesting tooling upgrades or process optimizations.
    • SKILLS MATRIX:
  • IPC-A-610- 6+ Years
  • IPC-J-STD- 6+ Years
  • Soldering -6+ Years
  • IPC-WHMA-A-620- 6+ Years

    • REQUIRED EDUCATION:
