About the Role

We're looking for a hands-on Mechatronics Technician / Technologist to assemble, test, calibrate, and troubleshoot precision robotic sensing systems. You'll work with Manufacturing teams to build high-quality products while supporting continuous process improvements.

Key Responsibilities

• Assemble precision electromechanical products following engineering drawings and work instructions.
• Perform SMT and through-hole soldering and PCB assembly.
• Apply epoxy potting and encapsulation to electronic assemblies.
• Calibrate and validate force-torque sensors.
• Troubleshoot mechanical and electrical issues to the component level.
• Execute automated test procedures using Python-based tools.
• Maintain production, calibration, and quality records.
• Assist in developing fixtures, SOPs, and manufacturing documentation.
• Support continuous improvement initiatives and maintain a safe, organized workspace.

Qualifications

• Diploma in Mechatronics, Mechanical, Electrical Engineering Technology, or a related field.
• 1–3 years of hands-on experience in electromechanical assembly, robotics, or high-tech manufacturing.
• Micro-Soldering (SMT & through-hole) and precision assembly skills.
• Experience reading electrical schematics and mechanical drawings.
• Familiarity with lab equipment such as DMMs, oscilloscopes, DAQs, and power supplies.
• Basic Python experience for testing or data collection.
• Strong attention to detail and problem-solving skills.

Nice to Have

• Experience calibrating force, torque, or pressure sensors.
• CAD experience (Onshape or SolidWorks).
• Experience working in an ISO 9001 or ISO 13485 environment.

Why Forcen?

• Comprehensive medical, vision, and dental benefits package
• Additional bonus and options compensation
• Opportunities for professional development and growth
• Collaborative and innovative work environment
• Open-concept hardware start-up environment - Dog-friendly office
• Culture outings with company-sponsored events (intramurals, food expeditions, swag)

If you're passionate about robotics, enjoy building cutting-edge hardware, and thrive in a fast-paced environment, we'd love to hear from you.
