• Apply heat‑shrink, braided sleeving, EMI/RFI shielding, and protective coverings to meet durability and performance requirements.
• Collaborate with engineering teams to refine prototype designs and provide feedback on manufacturability, documentation, and BOM accuracy.
• Conduct continuity checks, functional tests, and basic troubleshooting on prototype assemblies.
• Document build steps, modifications, and issues encountered during prototype development.
• Maintain a clean, organized workspace and follow all safety and quality protocols.
• Support rapid design iterations by adjusting or rebuilding prototype components as needed.

• Experience with cable harness and prototype building.
• Proficient in interpreting schematics and working with AutoCAD drawings.
