Position Overview:

We are looking for a skilled End of Line Mechanical Technician to join our team on 2nd shift (3:00pm-11:30pm). This role is essential in ensuring the mechanical systems and components of our autonomous surface vessels are thoroughly tested, assembled, and meet all specifications before they are delivered to the DoD. The ideal candidate will have hands-on experience in mechanical assembly, testing, troubleshooting, and final inspection of complex mechanical systems. You will work closely with engineers and production teams to ensure the highest standards of mechanical performance and reliability.

Responsibilities:

• Perform end-of-line mechanical testing, troubleshooting, and validation of mechanical systems for autonomous surface vessels.

• Conduct final checks and diagnostics on critical mechanical components, including propulsion systems, drive shafts, motors, actuators, and structural assemblies.

• Use mechanical tools and equipment (e.g., torque wrenches, hydraulic presses, vibration analyzers) to ensure systems are functioning properly.

• Interpret mechanical blueprints, technical specifications, and assembly instructions to assess and troubleshoot systems.

• Work closely with engineers to identify and resolve mechanical issues and implement corrective actions when necessary.

• Ensure all mechanical systems meet performance, safety, and compliance standards before vessels are shipped to clients.

• Maintain thorough logs of test results, repairs, modifications, and any deviations from standard procedures.

• Assist in the calibration of mechanical systems and components used during production.

• Follow all best practices and safety standards in mechanical work, ensuring that all systems meet industry standards.

• Provide feedback to design and engineering teams to optimize product designs and improve mechanical processes.

• Assist with troubleshooting mechanical problems in prototype vessels and provide support for new vessel designs.

Qualifications:

• 3+ years of experience in a mechanical technician or similar role, ideally in a high-tech manufacturing environment (experience with autonomous systems or defense technologies is a plus).

• Strong knowledge of mechanical systems, assembly processes, and troubleshooting techniques.

• Proficiency with mechanical testing tools (e.g., torque wrenches, hydraulic presses, vibration analyzers).

• Hands-on experience with mechanical assembly, testing, and maintenance of complex systems.

• Familiarity with industry standards for mechanical safety and compliance (e.g., ASME, MIL-STD).

• Strong problem-solving abilities and the capability to work independently and as part of a team.

• Attention to detail and a commitment to producing high-quality mechanical systems.

• Ability to work in a fast-paced, high-pressure environment.

• Experience working with autonomous systems, unmanned vehicles, or defense technologies.

• Knowledge of mechanical software tools for system diagnostics and testing.

• Familiarity with the assembly and integration of propulsion and power transmission systems in unmanned vehicles.
