Electrical Lab Technician

About this job

What we’re looking for We’re looking for an Electrical Lab Technician to own the day-to-day readiness of our electronics lab — making sure tools, equipment, and components are always ready so the engineering team can build, test, and troubleshoot hardware without friction. This is a hands-on lab role, not a design or engineering management position: you’ll handle soldering, rework, test execution, and lab organization directly, working closely with engineers on prototype builds, bring-up, and troubleshooting of electronic hardware. The day-to-day • Perform high-quality soldering, rework and modification of PCBs, cables, connectors and electronic assemblies. • Support prototype builds, bring-up and integration of new electronic hardware. • Execute electrical tests and measurements using standard lab equipment such as oscilloscopes, multimeters, power supplies and logic analysers. • Troubleshoot hardware issues systematically and support engineers with root-cause analysis. • Run defined validation and diagnostic tests, document results and highlight abnormalities. • Prepare test setups, harnesses, fixtures and equipment for development and validation activities. • Maintain an organised, clean and safe electronics lab with tools and equipment ready for use. • Own lab inventory of electronic components, consumables, cables and commonly used hardware. • Identify missing equipment or consumables and ensure critical items are reordered before they become a bottleneck. • Maintain basic documentation for lab equipment, test setups and recurring procedures. You should apply if you • ~5 years experience in or around Electronics lab environment. • Strong practical electronics and soldering skills, including fine-pitch PCB rework. • Comfortable working independently with common electronics laboratory equipment. • Able to troubleshoot electrical problems methodically rather than only following predefined instructions. • Experience assembling and modifying prototype electronic systems. • Organised, reliable and disciplined in maintaining tools, components and workspaces. • Comfortable documenting measurements, test results and findings clearly. • Practical mindset and comfortable working in a fast-moving hardware development environment. Nice to haves • Prior experience assembling, testing, or troubleshooting electronics for UAVs, drones, or other flight-critical systems. • Experience assembling and modifying prototype electronic systems. • A practical mindset, comfortable in a fast-moving hardware development environment. What we offer • Real impact & ownership: Shape high-tech defence systems and take responsibility from day one. • Mission-driven environment: Work on technologies that matter for European security and sovereignty. • Competitive package: Competitive salary, EGYM Wellpass, corporate benefits, and equity options aligned with role and level. • Deep tech environment: Get hands-on experience with cutting-edge drone technology and real operational use cases. • Grow fast: Steep learning curve for juniors, strategic influence and leadership opportunities for seniors. • Startup mindset meets defence innovation: flat hierarchies, fast decisions, and space for your ideas. • Flexibility: Flexible hours, remote options, and relocation support. • Strong team: International, driven colleagues and a culture built on exchange, trust, and shared success.
