- Managing your own workflow to meet daily and weekly output targets
- Keeping your workstation organised, safe, and production‑ready
- Collaborating with the workshop team to ensure smooth production flow

- Experience soldering multi‑pin connectors (Socapex experience highly preferred)
- Basic knowledge of power and electrical principles (e.g., cable ratings, polarity, safe handling)
- Ability to follow technical drawings and wiring documentation
