About the role

We're looking for an Electronics Manufacturing Engineer who lives at the intersection of design and production. You'll be the person who makes sure the boards our electrical engineers design can actually be built, reliably, at yield, at cost; whether they run on our in-house SMT line or get handed to a contract manufacturer.

What they're looking for

  • • Associate's or Bachelor's in Electrical Engineering Technology (EET), Electrical or Manufacturing Engineering, or a related field or equivalent hands-on experience
  • • 4+ years in electronics/PCBA manufacturing engineering, with hands-on ownership of an SMT line and its process (paste, placement, reflow, AOI, rework)
  • • Demonstrated DFM/DFA expertise, reviewed real PCB designs, given feedback to EEs, and can point to boards that shipped better because problems were caught before release
  • • Fluency with IPC standards (IPC-A-610, IPC-7351, IPC-2221, J-STD-001) and the vocabulary to hold a design review to them
  • • Ability to read and interpret schematics, PCB layouts, fabrication and assembly drawings, BOMs, stack-ups and to spot what's wrong or missing in a release package
  • • Hands-on command of the SMT process: reflow profiling, stencil/paste, placement, SPI/AOI, and rework, comfortable diagnosing tombstoning, bridging, voiding, head-in-pillow and similar defects
More about this role

Standard Bots builds next-generation robotics for manufacturing affordable, capable, American-made automation. Our hardware is a tightly integrated electromechanical system, and we build it in-house at our Glen Cove, NY facility. The electronics inside our robots, the PCBAs that drive motion, sensing, and control are core IP, and how well they're designed for manufacturing directly determines our yield, our cost, and how fast we can scale.

This is a blend of two jobs. On the DFM side, you're the manufacturing conscience in the room during PCB design: reviewing layouts and packages before they're released, catching issues and errors early, and holding the line on the standards that keep boards manufacturable. On the process side, you own the SMT/PCBA process itself — bring-up, process control, yield, and the day-to-day of getting good boards out the door....
