Manufacturing Technician II

About the role

As a Manufacturing Technician at Mytra, you will join our Manufacturing and Operations team during a period of rapid industrialization and scaling as we transition from an early warehouse into a proper, full-scale manufacturing operation. Our team is currently focused on launching our Engineering Validation Test (EVT) phase and ramping up to steady-state rate production, and we need an energetic, electronics-focused specialist to help us build, test, and safely scale our advanced robotic systems.

What you’ll do:

• Drive EVT & Prototyping: Hit the ground running during our Engineering Validation Test (EVT) phase, supporting heavy prototyping and collaborating with both test and production teams on advanced custom configurations.
• Build the Production Floor: Assist in establishing our manufacturing infrastructure during your first 90 days by building workstations, assembling benches, cutting pipe, and laying out tools.
• Assemble & Provision Core Electronics: Perform intricate electro-mechanical assembly with a primary focus on electronics, including PCB/PCBA handling, bring-up, provisioning, wire harnessing, and server rack assembly.
• Execute Rate Production: Transition from initial ramp-up to hitting a consistent production rate (targeting approximately one unit per day), ensuring all builds adhere strictly to SOPs and quality guidelines.
• Inspect & Optimize: Inspect materials, utilize precision tools, collect data on components in-process, and partner with Manufacturing Engineers to improve overall process efficiency, reliability, and quality.

Ideal Candidates

• Have proven experience with core electronics assembly and handling, including PCBs/PCBAs, wire harnesses, server racks, and power supply/battery charging units.
• Have relevant knowledge of reading engineering drawings, interpreting metric/imperial tolerances, measuring components for conformity, and operating precision shop tools (e.g., torque wrenches, electrical crimpers, power tools).
• Ability to solder PCBA's
• Demonstrate an agile, growth-oriented mindset with a strong willingness to learn, adapt, and rotate across different tasks and responsibilities under tight timelines.
• Possess the physical capability to lift or move at least 50 pounds and stand, walk, or sit for extended periods of time in a manufacturing environment.
• Are available to work the projected 7:30 AM – 3:30 PM shift (initial schedule, subject to change).

Nice to have:

• A background or technical training in mechatronics, robotics, or high-volume electro-mechanical manufacturing.
• Experience with high-level enthusiast PC building or custom electronics modifications at scale.
• Deep technical expertise matching an (Senior) level, with an ability to mentor developing technicians and optimize production workflows.

A Final Note:

If this role excites you, we encourage you to apply — even if you don’t check every box. At Mytra, we build bots, but we hire humans. We value thoughtful challengers who communicate with clarity and respect, and we’re lifelong learners committed to getting better every day. We move fast, learn faster, and show up for each other under pressure. The best outcomes come from diverse perspectives working together to build something meaningful and built to last
