Satellite Compensation
$30.00 – $60.00 per hour The final job level and salary will be determined based on a range of factors including the candidate’s education, qualifications, knowledge, skills, abilities, and relevant experience. The listed salary range is provided to offer insight into potential compensation, but it’s not a guarantee of the final offer. While we include the full range to be transparent, offers most often fall within the middle portion rather than the top. Xona is the navigational intelligence company bringing real-time, centimeter-level certainty to any device, anywhere on Earth. With Pulsar – the world’s most advanced PNT satellite infrastructure in Low Earth Orbit – Xona will offer a future-proof, backwards-compatible global positioning system optimized for absolute precision, superior power, and robust protection. As an Assembly Technician, you will be an integral part in supporting our R&D and Satellite manufacturing teams at Xona. You will play a key role in supporting both
new product development
and
low-rate production
builds, ensuring hardware is delivered to the highest standards of quality and reliability. Your work will have significant impact on our goal of bringing cutting edge navigation technologies to space. Responsibilities
Perform precision assembly of complex mechanical and electrical subsystems, following engineering direction through hands-on training and via Engineering drawings, schematics, and work instructions.
Collaborate closely with engineering teams to support prototyping, troubleshooting, and design-for-assembly improvements.
Maintain accurate digital build documentation and nonconformance reports. Support the continuous iteration and improvement of work instructions, processes and methodology.
When program schedules require it, be willing and able to work alternate shifts, overtime, and/or weekends and occasional travel to support launch and off-site testing as required
Support transition of hardware from development into production, including feedback on tooling, fixtures, and process improvements. Support the continuous iteration and improvement of work instructions, processes and methodology
Handle a wide variety of tasks, from cleanroom assembly and cable harness integration to mechanical fastener torquing and leak/pressure checks.
Adhere to industry safety and quality standards where applicable
Contribute to a safe, organized, and collaborative work environment.
Tech Requirements
Hands on experience with soldering, wiring, cable making etc
Ability to interpret PCBA schematics, technical drawings, test plans, and work to procedures
Ability to perform payload and spacecraft integration tasks in lab and clean room environments
Perform payload testing of communications, telemetry and command, thermal, and power subsystems per the applicable procedure including setting up, adjusting and calibrating standard test equipment
Hands-on experience using electrical test equipment (multimeters, oscilloscopes, power supplies, spectral analyzers, etc.)
Maintain work instructions, connector mate logs, test logs
Develop, maintain, and own process and documentation for PCBA and harness manufacturing, inspection, rework, staking, and conformal coating
Analyze and interpret electrical/RF test data and provide results and issues to engineering
Familiar with windows style PC operating systems
Willing and able to work all shifts, overtime, and/or weekends, travel to support launch and off-site environmental testing as required
Climbing ladders, long durations of standing, grasping, sitting, pulling, and physical bending movements
Must be able to lift at least 40 lbs unassisted
Be able to clearly communicate written and orally in English
Desired Qualifications
7–10 years of assembly experience in Aviation, Space, or Defense industries or similar adjacent industrial sector.
Strong background in both mechanical and electrical assembly techniques.
Comfortable working in prototype labs, cleanrooms, and structured precision assembly facilities. Capable of working effectively with other skilled technicians and Engineers.
Familiar with reading complex engineering documentation, including CAD drawings, wiring diagrams, and assembly procedures. Experience with digital factory software systems is desirable, such as MES systems.
Experience with precision tools, torque equipment, electrical test instruments, and cleanroom practices.
Able to manage long durations of standing, grasping, sitting, pulling, and physical bending movements to support various assembly and test processes. Must be able to lift at least 40 lbs unassisted
Ability to work independently as well as effective cooperation and communication as part of a cross-functional team; strong problem-solving skills.
Track record of success in both small, fast-paced environments and larger, structured organizations.
High attention to detail, commitment to quality, and adaptability to evolving program needs.
Experience with handling and integrating space flight components and spacecraft environmental testing
For U.S. Roles:
To comply with U.S. Government space technology export regulations, applicant must be a U.S. citizen, lawful permanent resident of the United States (i.e. Green Card holder), or other protected individual as defined by 8 U.S.C. 1324b(a)(3). For U.K. Roles:
To comply with U.K. regulations, this role requires Baseline Personnel Security Standard (BPSS) checks, and successful candidates must be eligible to obtain UK Security Clearance (SC). For Canada Roles:
Successful candidates must obtain and hold a security clearance at the reliability status level, and pass security assessment for the Canadian Controlled Goods Program (CGP) and ITAR. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees.
