In doing so, we're building game-changing products manufactured at scale, while perfecting the safety, reliability, and capabilities of our autonomy engine and electric propulsion systems. We design, develop and manufacture an ecosystem of technologies including proprietary flight control software, avionics, high power density motors, motor controllers, batteries, and custom carbon-fiber composite airframes.Today, we supply autonomous electric aircraft for cargo transport and crop protection to real-world customers across four separate continents and have secured industry-first regulatory approvals from the FAA. Our cargo aircraft enables remote connectivity, enhances express delivery networks, and ensures fast and reliable shipping of critical supplies to areas in need. Our crop protection aircraft offers agricultural services providers and farmers an autonomous tool to make aerial application safer, more precise, and less harmful to surrounding environments. Both vehicles are highly economical to operate, easy to deploy, and significantly reduce C02 emissions in their respective industries. What you work on at Pyka makes people’s lives better now and brings the future of electric aviation one step closer each day.  Responsibilities<ul><li>Perform and establish incoming quality checks on production material </li><li>Work with design engineers on first articles and help move subassembly to production </li><li>Assemble electrical/mechanical subsystems following work instructions </li><li>Perform quality checks on assemblies as they go through the production process </li><li>Subassembly inventory tracking and procurement </li><li>Build wire harnesses and test setups based on understandings of Pyka’s systems </li><li>Write and update work instructions in our MES </li><li>Help to solve bugs and quality issues during assembly </li><li>Maintain the production space and keep equipment operational and orderly </li><li>Be comfortable and safe working with batteries, high voltage, and spinning motors </li></ul>Preferred Qualifications<ul><li>4-10+ years of experience with electrical/mechanical assemblies and building wiring harnesses based on schematics and work instructions </li><li>Experience with MES, PLM, and ERP </li><li>Experience writing and modifying work instructions </li><li>High voltage safety knowledge and comfortable working on 120 VDC, 20 ~ 30 kW systems. </li><li>Ability to follow instructions, both written and verbal, to carefully assemble electronic subsystems containing a variety of electrical and mechanical components </li><li>Experience inspecting and ensuring quality of electrical subsystems </li><li>Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
