Responsibilities

  • Perform a wide range of mechanical assembly and rework tasks, including drilling, tapping, cutting metals, fitting parts, troubleshooting alignment issues, and general fabrication.
  • Work closely with engineering on new projects, often starting from models, sketches, or even "napkin" designs, without established procedures.
  • Juggle multiple projects simultaneously, adapting quickly to changing priorities and tasks.
  • Primarily work on large equipment assembly, mobile vehicles, truck-sized structures, and some smaller bench-top subassemblies with rotating and moving components.
  • Be comfortable with indoor and outdoor work year-round, including in field construction settings around cranes and excavators, and perform tasks on lifts up to 15 feet high.
  • Handle miscellaneous tasks like moving materials, driving supplies, and running errands to local hardware stores.
  • Opportunities to travel domestically and internationally to support customers and system installation

Requirements :

  • Experience testing and operating electro-mechanical systems.
  • 5-10 years of experience in R&D or manufacturing technician roles.
  • Any Massachusetts hoisting license (especially skid steer, forklift, crane with wire rope) is a strong advantage.
  • Strong understanding of mechanical principles and hands-on fabrication skills.
  • Proficiency with mills and lathes, any welding experience is a significant asset.
  • Ability to thrive in a dynamic, fast-paced environment with frequent project switching and a comfort level with ambiguous instructions.
  • Viken Detection is an Equal Opportunity. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, pregnancy, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, age, protected veteran status, or disability status.
