Perform chassis/mechanical modifications (mounting solutions, routing changes, fit/finish adjustments, serviceability improvements).
Complete minor fabrication work as needed (e.g., bracketry, drilling/cutting, fastening, rivnuts/riveting, trim/panel rework).
Ensure vehicles are returned in a safe, functional, and test-ready condition after work completion (secure fasteners, correct routing, verified electrical integrity).
Perform post-work quality/safety checks (connector engagement, harness retention, abrasion/heat protection, basic functional verification).
Identify unsafe conditions or quality risks; stop work and escalate concerns as required.
Partner with engineers to clarify requirements, provide hands-on feedback, and recommend practical build solutions.
Document “as-built” status, deviations, and lessons learned; contribute to work instructions, checklists, and standard work.
Train and mentor technicians/teams on procedures, wiring best practices, safety expectations, and workmanship standards.
Maintain clean, organized, and safe work areas (5S mindset), including tool control and housekeeping; follow all safety/PPE requirements.
Required Qualifications:
Significant hands-on experience in prototype/beta vehicle builds, vehicle modification, or advanced automotive technician work (EV experience strongly desired).
