As a Senior Cable Harness Technician, you will join our Stretch Team as a cable fabrication expert. Every day, you will use equipment such as crimp tooling, cable strippers, and soldering irons to build, rout, cut, crimp and/or solder wire harnesses and cables, assemble systems and install various components. Additionally, you will inspect assemblies, coordinate with key stakeholders to ensure required parts and tools are readily available, and collaborate with the design team to solve challenges. You will plan and execute cable build and rework activities to support test stands, prototype builds, and production success as we continue to scale our robot fleet into a worldwide commercially available product. To thrive in this role, you must be a self-motivated individual with a willingness to take ownership and responsibility for assigned work. Automotive harness experience is required.
Boston Dynamics is a world leader in mobile robots, tackling some of the toughest robotics challenges.
