Prototype Technician

The Impact You'll Make As a Prototype Technician, you’ll play a hands-on role in turning engineering concepts into working products. Your work will directly support new product development, research and development, and product testing, helping teams bring innovative solutions from design to reality. You’ll collaborate closely with engineers and designers to build, test, troubleshoot, and refine prototype systems and components. From mechanical assemblies to instrumentation and testing setups, your expertise will help improve product performance, reliability, and quality. This is an opportunity for someone who enjoys solving technical challenges, working with their hands, and seeing the direct impact of their contributions throughout the product development lifecycle. What You’ll Be Doing Build, assemble, modify, and troubleshoot mechanical, electrical, and electromechanical prototypes that support new product development and R&D initiatives. Partner with engineers to identify issues, validate designs, and contribute practical recommendations that improve product performance and manufacturability. Perform functional testing using tools such as multimeters, gauges, calipers, micrometers, and other measurement equipment, documenting results and maintaining accurate records. Support the setup, operation, and teardown of prototype and compressor test systems, including instrumentation such as thermocouples, pressure transducers, and vibration sensors. Maintain prototype shop equipment, support compliance with ISO 9001 maintenance processes, and help ensure a safe, organized, and efficient workspace. What We're Looking For High school diploma or GED required; technical training, certification, or an associate degree in mechanical, electrical, manufacturing, or related technology is a plus. At least 2 years of hands-on experience in manufacturing, prototyping, fabrication, maintenance, troubleshooting, or R&D support. Ability to read and interpret engineering drawings, schematics, blueprints, and CAD-generated documentation. Strong mechanical aptitude with experience using hand tools, power tools, precision measuring instruments, and test equipment. Working knowledge of Microsoft Office and experience with maintenance management systems such as Maximo is beneficial. Ability to safely lift up to 50 pounds and perform physical tasks including standing, walking, kneeling, and working with prototype assemblies and shop equipment. What You'll Get from Us We promote from within and support your learning with mentoring, training, and access to global opportunities. You’ll have flexibility, autonomy, and support to do your best work while maintaining a healthy work-life balance. Your well-being matters to us.
