PCB ASSEMBLER
OIL & GAS INDUSTRY
NEAR CARDIFF

A PCB Assembler is now required to join this world leader in the design, development and manufacture of precision, innovative downhole electromechanical data acquisition instrumentation for the worldwide oil and gas industry based near Cardiff. Their products are used to measure flow, pressure, temperature and other parameters within the well bore.

As PCB Assembler your primary duty will be the low volume production of down hole and surface pcb’s for electro-mechanical instrumentation for use in oil and gas wells. This will involve kitting pcb’s, hand assembling both surface mount and through hole pcb’s to pitch 0.025” using high and very high temperature solders, stock control of electronics components and complete testing of PCB’s.

To succeed as PCB Assembler you should be qualified to ONC/OND level with experience in a similar role. You must be able to demonstrate experience of the hand assembly of SMD circuit boards to highest standards and testing PCBs, as well as knowledge of IPC-A-610 Class C.

You should be highly computer literate, have good organisational skills and demonstrable written and verbal communication skills. Experience of using high temperature solders (Sn05 / Sn96) would be advantageous, but is not essential.

The PCB Assembler will need the ability to ‘think’, identify issues and offer solutions and to work to challenging deadlines in a fast changing, high pressure environment. You must be able to demonstrate a complete commitment to quality, a ‘Can Do’ attitude showing passion and drive and a practical, hands-on, coaching approach.

You must be able to work with minimum supervision / self-motivated and able to work both independently and as part of a small team.

This is a unique opportunity to create your own success in a business with highly ambitious plans for growth. Following a major investment by a specialist oil and gas fund, this small but rapidly expanding business with an international client-base offers a challenging and fascinating position in Wales. The position is located close to the bustling capital city of Cardiff, and is a short drive from the Brecon Beacons and the Cambrian mountains.
