• Hands-On Assembly & Fabrication
• Perform stator coil insertions, lamination stacking, and permanent-magnet assembly.
• Assemble, test, and debug prototype and pre-production components.
• Use hand tools and precision instruments (micrometers, calipers, Gaussmeters, Fluxmeters, etc.) to verify tolerances and performance.

Process & Documentation

• Follow and improve assembly and testing work instructions according to quality standards.
• Record build data, test results, and observations with high attention to detail.

Collaboration & Continuous Improvement

• Work closely with other engineers to refine designs and manufacturing methods.
• Design or modify tooling and fixtures to support prototype builds.
• Participate in design reviews and provide hands-on feedback from the build process.
