Pay: $25-32/hr

This is a hands-on, build-heavy manufacturing role. Most days will be spent performing mechanical assembly and integrating Shinkei’s Poseidon machines. We’re looking for someone with strong mechanical aptitude, attention to detail, and a willingness to learn. Technicians are responsible for delivering completed work that meets Shinkei's quality and production standards.

Our work focuses primarily on mechanical, electrical, and electromechanical assemblies, with some integration routing, wiring, testing, and troubleshooting.

What You’ll Do

• Assemble mechanical and electromechanical components and integrate production machines.

• Follow engineering drawings, BOMs, and build instructions to ensure accurate, consistent builds.

• Use hand tools, power tools, torque wrenches, crimpers, wire strippers, and multimeters.

• Perform basic wiring, crimping, cable preparation, and harness routing.

• Inspect your work, identify discrepancies, and communicate build issues.

• Troubleshoot assembly problems and help improve build processes.

• Maintain an organized workspace and work with the team to meet production schedules.

What You’ll Need

• Strong mechanical aptitude and hands-on experience with mechanical, electrical, or electromechanical builds through work, school, or personal projects.

• Familiarity with hand tools, power tools, and torque wrenches.

• Basic electrical skills, including crimping, wire stripping, and multimeter use, or a willingness to learn.

• Ability to follow detailed instructions and read or learn to interpret part drawings and technical documentation.

• Strong attention to detail, time management, and commitment to quality.

• Dependability, initiative, and willingness to ask questions, learn, and apply feedback.

• Comfort working in a fast-paced environment where designs and priorities can change.

Bonus Experience

• Familiarity with IPC/WHMA-A-620 wire harness standards and RapidHarness wiring diagrams.

• Experience with industrial crimping tools, D-sub or circular connectors, and low-voltage electrical systems.

• Experience reading technical drawings, dimensions, and tolerances.

• Background in manufacturing, robotics, automation, or hardware integration.

What Success Looks Like

Successful technicians take pride in their work, follow instructions carefully, meet build deadlines, and catch issues before they affect quality. They can ramp up quickly, learn new assemblies, and execute within a fast-paced production environment. As our designs and processes evolve, we expect technicians to communicate discrepancies, ask questions, and help improve how we build.

As you develop your skills, you’ll have opportunities to take ownership of subassemblies, improve processes, and help train other technicians.

What We Offer

• Competitive hourly pay with opportunities for growth.

• A collaborative, engineering-focused team.

• Tools and autonomy to take ownership of your work

• Hands-on experience building hardware from the lab to the fishing vessel.

• Opportunities to develop technical skills and take ownership of your work.

• A freezer full of Seremoni-grade fish (seriously!).

Shinkei is an equal opportunity employer. We encourage applicants from all backgrounds to apply, especially those who have taken an unconventional path to develop their skills.
