The Electrical Assembler is an entry level position focused on developing foundational electrical assembly skills in a manufacturing environment. Supports electrical assembly operations by installing basic electrical components, conduit systems, boxes, and fixtures while learning electrical drawings, safety standards, and assembly processes.

Key Responsibilities:

· Read and interpret electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, and assembly drawings.
· Install pre-bent conduit and secure it with clamps and straps in accordance with electrical standards and company requirements.
· Follow schematics and drawings to ensure proper placement and spacing of conduit supports, straps, clamps, hangers, and associated components.
· Assemble and install electrical boxes, junction boxes, and lighting fixtures to company quality standards.
· Operate power/hand tools, measuring devices, and instruments used for assembly.
· Accurately use measuring and leveling tools, including tape measures and levels, for conduit and component installation.
· Demonstrate safe operation and proper use of scissor lifts, boom lifts, and ladders.
· Follow all safety procedures, quality standards, and work instructions during assembly and installation activities.
Requirements

Physical Demands:
This position differs from a typical assembly line role. Employees do not remain in one location throughout the shift. The assembly process requires working inside, around, and on top of large enclosures, including the use of scissor lifts and performing work at heights of 16-18 feet. Applicants should be comfortable working in elevated positions and in a physically active manufacturing environment.
The physical demands described here are representative of those that must be met by an employee to successfully perform the essential functions of this job. While performing the duties of this job, the employee is regularly required to stand, walk, lift and/or move up to 40 lbs., bend, use hands, and fingers for 8 + hours. (Overtime may be required)
