Job Description Job Description Job Title- Senior Precision Assembly Technician
Job Duration- 3-6 Months
Pay Rate $60-80/hr on w2
Client- Aerospace & Defense
Position Overview
We're looking for an exceptional Senior Precision Assembly Technician with 20+ years of hands-on precision assembly experience, ideally in a development or R&D environment and preferably with experience building hardware for space applications.
This is a great fit for someone who is highly independent, self-driven, and comfortable working in ambiguity. In this role, you won't always have a perfect process or complete instructions - you'll need to quickly find the right information, ask smart questions, and keep work moving. We need someone who can learn fast and contribute from day one.
What You'll Do:
Perform precision assembly of optical, mechanical, and electro-mechanical components
Work in Class 100 (ISO 5) clean room and laboratory environments
Assemble, bond, and handle delicate, miniature components to extremely tight tolerances, including micron-level work
Perform lapping to achieve demanding flatness, parallelism, and angular requirements
Safely handle sensitive optical hardware such as lenses, mirrors, and optical subassemblies
Read and interpret manufacturing instructions, drawings, blueprints, and CAD models
Maintain strict component traceability
Troubleshoot complex assembly issues and help determine effective corrective actions
Partner closely with engineering and cross-functional teams to improve assembly methods, documentation, and manufacturability
Drive continuous improvement to reduce errors, defects, scrap, and rework
Take initiative during downtime and independently move valuable work forward
Lift and transport items up to 32 lbs
What Makes This Role Different? This is a fast-paced development environment, not a repetitive production role. Success here means you can:
Handle ambiguity extremely well and keep execution moving when information is incomplete
Climb a steep learning curve quickly and add value immediately
Work with a high level of independence and minimal supervision
Bring both craftsmanship and problem-solving to complex builds
What You Bring:
20+ years of precision assembly experience
Experience in a development environment strongly preferred
Experience assembling space hardware strongly preferred
Proven ability to be self-directed, decisive, and resourceful
Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to rapidly gather information when things are unclear
Experience with optical, mechanical, and electro-mechanical assembly
Comfort working in clean room environments
Strong communication skills and the ability to provide useful feedback to engineers and program teams
