Job Description

Salary :

WaveWorks makes wireless communication solutions for the next wave of connected devices. Our technology delivers ultra-low power, small form factor, and standards-compatible wireless communication by reflecting, rather than emitting, energy. This backscatter-based approach enables orders of magnitude lower power consumption while maintaining long range and high reliability.

WaveWorks is expanding our engineering team and searching for high-performing, dedicated individuals to help us blaze new trails.

Were seeking a hands-on Lab Technician to support the assembly, rework, and testing of WaveWorks ultra-low-power wireless and sensing technologies. The ideal candidate combines strong practical electronics skills, precise workmanship, and disciplined organization. Much of the work will center around fine-pitch SMT assembly and rework, prototype preparation, and maintaining high-quality electronics lab procedures.

This is an on-site role based in Seattle, WA.

ROLE

• Assemble and rework prototype electronic boards and subassemblies using fine-pitch surface-mount soldering techniques
• Perform board-level inspection, debug, and bring-up under engineering direction
• Organize and maintain lab tools, components, and documentation to ensure traceability and repeatability of test builds
• Support engineers in prototype validation and measurement activities (e.g., using oscilloscopes, VNAs, and spectrum analyzers)
• Prepare, label, and maintain hardware inventories and version control logs
• Contribute to fixture fabrication and wiring for test setups and long-term reliability experiments
