Stator Winding Engineer Jobs (NOW HIRING)

As part of the mission at Archer, we're scaling production of our cutting-edge Electric Propulsion System (EPS)-the heart of our eVTOL aircraft. EPS comprises the Electric Motor and Propeller assemblies. As an EPS Manufacturing Technician, you will play a hands-on role in building stators for our electric engines supporting the aircraft. This position operates in a predominantly manual production environment where strict adherence to work instructions, precision, and attention to detail are critical to success. We're building this line from the ground up, and we want technicians who are curious, ask good questions, and grow with us. 

What You'll Do:

• Assemble stators and support electric engine subassemblies - including winding, insulation, impregnation, and mechanical assembly - using manual, semi-automated, and automated equipment
• Partner closely with Manufacturing and Design Engineering teams to support equipment bring-up, process development, validation activities, and basic fixture or tooling builds
• Troubleshoot and resolve equipment and process issues across stator builds and testing, contributing to continuous improvement efforts
• Conduct in-process and final inspections using basic metrology tools (calipers, micrometers, depth gauges, measurement microscopes, etc.)
• Accurately document build issues, process deviations, inspection results, and manufacturing parameters in real time
• Perform routine preventative maintenance on production and lab equipment
• Maintain a clean, organized, and safe work environment in accordance with 5S and safety protocols

What You Need:

• 3+ years of hands-on manufacturing or production experience assembling mechanical and/or electronic components - aerospace, EV, or precision manufacturing backgrounds are a plus
• Demonstrated ability to follow formal work instructions and accurately document deviations, build records, or process data (experience with Excel or similar tools required)
• High standards for workmanship, part handling, and quality - you take care of the hardware and you notice when something isn't right
• Experience using measurement and inspection equipment (calipers, micrometers, height gauges, etc.)
• Ability to read and interpret mechanical and electrical drawings and basic drafting standards
• Familiarity with manufacturing safety protocols (LOTO, arc flash, ESD, etc.) and 5S workplace organization
• A collaborative, coachable approach - you ask questions when you're unsure, communicate clearly, and are energized by learning on a new production line

Bonus Qualifications:

• IPC certification or working knowledge of IPC standards
• Direct experience with stator winding and insulation processes
• Experience working with ERP systems such as SAP
