The team manufactures a wide range of advanced products, including:
- Satellite communication equipment
- Power management and control systems
- Surveillance equipment
- Counter-IED systems
The manufacturing operation covers electronic and electro-mechanical assembly, panel and cabinet wiring, and the testing of completed assemblies.
Key Responsibilities
- Complete complex cabinet, rack and box wiring using 22 AWG to 10 AWG cable and wire.
- Work across power, data and RF applications.
- Use a variety of handheld crimping tools.
- Create, route and secure multi-cable harnesses and wiring looms.

- The ability to follow bespoke customer-supplied assembly instructions.
- Strong practical wiring, crimping and soldering skills.
- Good attention to detail and a commitment to producing high-quality work.
Experience in prototype wiring or completion of a time-served apprenticeship would be desirable but is not essential.
IPC J-STD certification would be a distinct advantage.
Interview Process
The interview process will consist of a single-stage interview with the HR and Production Managers.
There will be no practical trade test. Candidates will be asked technical and competency-based questions about their previous wiring and manufacturing experience.
