About the role

We are seeking an Associate Trainer to support the development, delivery, and continuous improvement of workmanship training programs for electrical harnessing and cable assembly personnel. This role works closely with Senior Technicians, Quality Engineering, and the Training Manager to onboard new technicians, reinforce standards compliance, and help build a pipeline of qualified, certifiable talent across the production floor.

What they're looking for

  • Minimum 1 year of hands-on experience in a harnessing, cable assembly, or directly related production role
  • Demonstrated hands-on proficiency in wire harness/cable assembly, including crimping, soldering, and connector termination, as evidenced by current role performance and quality record
  • Working knowledge of IPC/WHMA-A-620 acceptance criteria (certification a plus, willingness to pursue CIT certification required)
  • Familiarity with our internal build documentation, travelers, and process specs, and the ability to speak to how our floor applies IPC/WHMA-A-620 / NASA-STD-8739.4A in practice
  • Demonstrated ability to read and interpret engineering drawings, wiring diagrams, and build travelers
  • Strong verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to explain technical concepts clearly to learners at varying experience levels

We supercharge electrical wire harness manufacturing through software configuration, transforming skilled assembly tasks into high-throughput production lines. We enable customers to design what they want, when they want it and deliver harness builds at record-breaking speed.

This is an ideal opportunity for someone who has demonstrated strong hands-on workmanship skills on our floor and wants to transition toward training, curriculum development, and quality mentorship — without yet stepping into a full Technical Trainer / Senior Trainer or Certified IPC Trainer (CIT) role.
