Wire Harness Technician

On-Site role

Job Description:

Position Summary:

• Support Wire harness testing operations across multiple harness programs (body, high-speed, roof, and others as assigned) alongside existing operators, operating the test fixture, performing visual/borescope inspection, troubleshooting and reworking connector-level defects, and physically assisting with harness load/unload, labeling, and table setup.

Responsibilities:

• Operate the Cirris Easy-Wire tester across different harness test programs (body, high-speed, roof, and others as needed): run official tests, use the Analyze Test Instructions pre-test pass to troubleshoot (Stop on Failure, Continuous Loop) before committing to a formal run.
• Visually inspect connectors and terminals (magnifier, borescope) to identify physical defects, off-center/backed-out terminals, cracked or broken seals, contamination, bent pins, independent of what the electrical reading shows.
• Use a multimeter and a 4-wire (Kelvin) milliohmmeter to independently confirm or rule out flagged readings (opens, shorts, miswires, high resistance).
• Read and cross-reference 2D wire harness engineering drawings/wire lists against test findings, across different harness types/programs.
• Perform basic connector rework: remove/replace clips, secondary locks, and terminals; reseat or re-terminate wires.
• Physically assist with loading/connecting and disconnecting/unloading each harness on the fixture table,  a 2–3 person job, time and setup varies by harness type and fixture.
• Help set up and break down test tables/fixtures for different harness programs, lift components, label adapters/connectors, and keep work areas organized and clean.
• Document findings (photos, borescope captures, written notes) clearly enough for engineering escalation.
• Work alongside the two operators and coordinate with engineering/quality on recurring defect patterns, across whichever harness program is active.

Required Qualifications:

• Associate’s degree or technical certificate in Electronics, Electrical Technology, Avionics, or a related field OR equivalent hands-on experience in lieu of formal education.
• 2+ years of hands-on experience in wire harness testing, electrical troubleshooting, or electromechanical assembly/rework (automotive, aerospace, or similar manufacturing preferred).
• Demonstrated ability to read 2D electrical/wire harness engineering drawings for varied harness types.
• Comfortable with multimeters; milliohmmeter experience a plus.
• Able to exercise sound engineering judgment, distinguishing a fixture/test artifact from a genuine harness defect, and knowing when to escalate and to adapt that judgment across different harness programs rather than one fixed test setup.
• Physical ability to lift/carry up to [e.g. 30 lbs], stand/bend/reach for extended periods, and participate in a multi-person harness load/unload process.
• Clear written documentation and communication skills for a small, collaborative team.
• Able to work on-site at [location].

Preferred:

• Prior experience with Cirris/EasyWire or a similar cable/harness test system (training provided if not).
• IPC/WHMA-A-620 certification (wire harness workmanship standard) or equivalent.
• Borescope/visual-inspection equipment experience.
• Exposure to more than one harness type/vehicle subsystem (body, high-speed data, roof, etc.) a plus, though not required, willingness to cross-train across programs matters more than prior breadth.
