Job Description:

Job Description Job Description Description: RAM Aviation, Space & Defense is a leader in aerospace innovation, powering flight and space exploration with precision solenoids, valves, and actuators. Since 1975, we’ve supported missions like the Space Shuttle and continue to deliver mission-critical components for commercial, defense, and satellite systems. As one of Southern Utah’s largest employers, we drive economic growth and offer high-skilled careers in engineering and manufacturing. From our advanced facility in St. George, we build the future of aerospace—on time, with excellence, and as a team. Join us to work on groundbreaking technology and help shape the future of flight and space exploration. Your career takes off here! As a Cleanroom Assembly Technician , you are the hands that build our most critical hardware. Working inside our controlled ISO-certified cleanroom, you will assemble, test, and package electromechanical devices like solenoids and valves that are destined for spaceflight. This role requires a steady hand, a sharp eye, and a commitment to perfection. You won't just be following instructions; you will be mastering strict contamination control protocols to ensure that not even a speck of dust compromises the mission. If you take pride in precision work and enjoy a quiet, focused, and immaculate work environment, we want you on our team. Duties and Responsibilities Precision Assembly: Assemble complex electromechanical products (solenoids, valves) using microscopes, tweezers, and small hand tools. You will follow detailed Work Instructions and drawings to the letter. Cleanroom Protocol: Adhere strictly to cleanroom standards. This includes wearing full cleanroom attire (gown, hood, booties, gloves, mask) and following Foreign Object Debris (FOD) prevention protocols. Testing & Verification: Perform functional testing on completed units to ensure they meet engineering specifications. You will use precision measuring instruments (calipers, micrometers) to verify tolerances. Documentation: "If it isn't written down, it didn't happen." You will complete assembly logs and test documentation with 100% accuracy to ensure full traceability for our aerospace customers. Collaboration & Training: Work closely with Design Engineering to provide feedback on new products. You may also be asked to demonstrate assembly processes during customer site visits or audits. Quality First: You are the first line of defense for quality. You are empowered to "stop the line" and report any problems with materials, processes, or equipment to your supervisor immediately. Maintenance: Maintain a pristine workspace. You will clean products and equipment regularly to facilitate a contaminant-free manufacturing environment. Requirements: Legal: Must be able to pass a comprehensive criminal background check and drug screening. Must be a U.S. citizen or national, U.S. permanent resident (current Green Card holder), or lawfully admitted into the U.S. as a refugee or granted asylum (due to ITAR requirements). Dexterity: Superior manual dexterity and eye-hand coordination. You must be comfortable handling very small parts (often under a microscope) for extended periods. Technical Aptitude: Ability to read and interpret technical drawings, blueprints, and complex written instructions. Cleanroom Readiness: Willingness to work in a controlled environment. This means adhering to dress codes (no makeup, jewelry, or perfumes) and wearing protective cleanroom gear (The "Bunny Suit") for the duration of the shift. Measurement Skills: Proficiency with basic measuring tools (calipers, micrometers, multimeters) is preferred. Communication: Ability to communicate clearly with engineers and auditors. You must be comfortable demonstrating your work process to others. Education: High School Diploma or GED is required. Experience: Prior experience in electronics assembly, medical device manufacturing, or fine-detail craftwork is a major plus.
