• Technical education in mechanics, electrics or similar

• At least 5 years of experience on a similar position in assembly, maintenance or production environment

• Communicative in English, as a plus

• Experience in reading technical documentation, mechanical drawings & electrical diagrams

• Knowledge of production processes and equipment

• Hands-on skills in mechanical (assembly, alignment) and electrical assembly (wiring, cabinet wiring, electrical connections)

• Experience with prototype builds or manual assembly processes

• Ability to work in a team and to cooperate actively with quality, engineering, design, maintenance and production

• Willingness to learn and expand into maintenance responsibilities

• Familiarity with hand-tools and simple machining tools

• Problem solving

• Understanding of manufacturing processes
