What are the responsibilities and job description for the Assembly Technician position at Insight Global?
Electrical Assembly Technician
This role is hands‑on and focused on building and wiring advanced electrical systems used in hydrogen and power technology. You’ll be working on equipment like electrolyzers, fuel cell systems, and power electronics that are still in prototype or early production stages. It’s a build‑heavy role where quality, safety, and attention to detail really matter.
What you’ll actually be doing day to day
• Assembling and wiring electrical systems for hydrogen and power platforms
• Performing both high‑voltage and low‑voltage wiring, including routing, terminating, grounding, and shielding
• Building cable harnesses and installing connectors to industrial standards
• Integrating power electronics like rectifiers, inverters, DC to DC converters, and distribution units
• Reading electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, P&IDs, and layout drawings to build systems correctly
• Connecting sensors, valves, actuators, interlocks, and safety components during system integration
• Using tools like multimeters and megger testers to run continuity checks and insulation testing
• Supporting system bring‑up, commissioning, and early troubleshooting with engineering
• Identifying wiring issues, grounding problems, or electrical faults and helping resolve them
• Following strict safety procedures, especially around high voltage and hydrogen environments
• Documenting work, test results, and changes as designs evolve
• Supporting prototype builds where designs can change quickly
What they’re looking for
• Electrical or electronics background through education, training, or hands‑on experience
• Around two or more years working in electrical assembly, industrial equipment, energy systems, or power electronics
• Strong ability to read and work from electrical schematics and diagrams
• Hands‑on experience with cable harnessing, crimping, and industrial connectors
• Comfort using basic electrical test equipment
• Solid understanding of electrical safety, especially in high‑voltage environments
• Someone who understands how electrical systems tie into mechanical and process systems
Nice to have, but not required
• Experience with hydrogen systems like electrolyzers or fuel cells
• Exposure to power electronics or high‑current DC systems
• Knowledge of grounding, shielding, and EMI best practices
• Familiarity with IPC standards
• Startup, R&D, or low‑volume production experience
• PLC wiring or industrial controls exposure
