Solder tech

  • This role will do all of the work listed above for the Production Technician with J. Std. Certification but will also do hand soldering tasks.

  • Working to J-STD-001 and IPC 610 standards- The ideal candidate will have an active J-STD-001 certification.- If there is truly a hard time to find folks with certs, the customer is open to expired certs. They will need to be certified onsite. Could be fast tracked – one day or one hour.

    • IPC 610 is not required.- 610 is required for inspection and PMG won’t be doing that.

  • All drawings will ask for IPC 610 & J-STD soldering quality.

  • OJT soldering training will be provided for specific applications.

  • Soldering components in a variety of connections including wire to wire, wire to terminal, and thru-hole soldering to mini-CPAs.

  • Boards are the size of a nickel, maybe a quarter.

  • All soldering is done under scope. Must be able to work under scope all day.

  • Must pass an onsite certification test if certifications are expired. This will be written tests and hand soldering tests where dexterity and soldering abilities are tested.- Keep in mind: the boards are the size of a NICKEL and components are being soldered onto that.

    • J. Std. 001 training/fast track for expired certs. That will include a soldering assessment.
