Job details

Job Title: wiring and bonding technician Job Location - North York, ON, Canada Pay - 23$ CAN per hour Employment type: Contract (3 months) to Fulltime Years of experience: 1 to 5 years Key skills and experience 1. Strain gauge bonding Experience installing or bonding strain gauges, sensors, or other delicate electronic components. Comfortable with careful surface preparation, cleaning, gauge positioning/alignment, adhesive application and curing. These are critical because bonding quality and gauge alignment affect how accurately strain from the metal body is transferred to the gauge. Ability to work with very small, delicate components without damaging them. 2. Fine wiring and soldering Strong hand-soldering skills, particularly fine wires and small electrical connections. Ability to follow wiring diagrams/schematics. Load-cell strain gauges are commonly electrically arranged into a Wheatstone bridge, so familiarity with basic bridge circuits would be valuable 3.Basic electrical/electronics knowledge The technician does not necessarily need to be an electronics engineer, but should understand: Resistance Voltage Continuity Strain gauges Basic electrical circuits 4. Inspection and quality mindset I would consider this especially important for a precision manufacturing environment. Looking for someone who: Is detail-oriented. Can consistently follow written work instructions. Can inspect the quality of their own work. Understands the importance of cleanliness and contamination control. Can document production or quality information accurately. Is comfortable doing repetitive precision work where consistency matters.
