Harness Integration Technician, Quick Turn

Figure is an AI Robotics company developing a general purpose humanoid. Our humanoid robot is designed for commercial tasks and the home. We are based in San Jose, CA and require 5 days/week in-office collaboration. It’s time to build.

We are looking for a Harness Integration Technician – Quick-Turn. In summary, you will own same-day/next-day cable and harness builds that keep critical prototype schedules on track without impacting planned production work.

Responsibilities:

• Rapidly build custom cables and harnesses (cut, strip, crimp, solder, braid/sleeve, heat-shrink, basic potting, final terminations) from drawings/BOMs/work orders.
• Turn around urgent requests in hours or days while maintaining quality; coordinate closely with engineering for last-minute tweaks.
• Crimp and verify terminals/contacts (TE/AMP, Molex, JST, Amphenol/LEMO, etc.) using specified tooling; perform and log pull tests when required.
• Print/apply labels and heat-shrink markers; ensure traceability in ERP or router system.
• Perform continuity and insulation/hipot tests; troubleshoot with DMMs and cable testers.
• Execute rework/modifications to spec (IPC/WHMA-A-620) and support NCMR/MRB containment.
• Maintain 5S/ESD, keep the quick-turn bench stocked, and suggest process improvements to reduce cycle time.

Requirements: 

• 2+ years building wire harnesses/cable assemblies in a prototype or low-volume manufacturing environment.
• Proven ability to deliver high-quality cables on tight deadlines with minimal supervision.
• Strong crimping and soldering skills (selective tinning, shields/drain wires, coax/twisted pair).
• Hands-on with strippers, gauges, pull testers, manual/pneumatic crimpers, soldering stations, and heat guns.
• Working knowledge of IPC/WHMA-A-620 (Class 2/3) and familiarity with J-STD-001.
• Comfortable reading prints, schematics, BOMs, work orders, and ECOs; disciplined about documentation and traceability.

Bonus Qualifications: 

• Current IPC/WHMA-A-620 or J-STD-001 certification.
• Experience running cable testers (e.g., Cirris) and integrating simple test fixtures.
• Familiarity with robotics prototypes or other electromechanical systems.
• ERP data entry (part traceability, router sign-offs) and SOP authorship.
• Bilingual English/Spanish.
