Group 72 - Fabrication Engineering
MIT Lincoln Laboratory pushes the boundaries of science and engineering to design, model, and fabricate technologies and prototype systems for national security applications. These mission areas include space imaging and data processing, high energy lasers, long range laser communications, ground-based radars, and undersea communication terminals. Within MIT Lincoln Laboratory, the Fabrication Engineering Group works with program teams from initial design through manufacturing, assembly, integration, and testing to fabricate low-volume advanced hardware. Our core PCB capabilities include automated solder paste printing, precision pick and place machines, and automated optical inspection systems. Our core mechanical competencies span precision fabrication, diamond turning, EDM machining, additive manufacturing, and 5-axis machining. Our core assembly, integration, and test capabilities include program integration spaces, cleanrooms, vibration testing, and space simulation chambers. The Group concentrates on high-complexity parts and state-of-practice prototyping capabilities, technical excellence, and quality systems for national security applications. State-of-practice prototyping capabilities are achieved through programs for employee's technical and personal growth, continuous investigation and implementation of innovative fabrication technologies, and exceptional collaboration.
The position provides the candidate continuous opportunities to learn new skills to match the needs of the protype system, the interests of the candidate, and the Group's objective to continuously implement innovative fabrication technologies.
The Group seeks to hire a talented, creative, and motivated individual to assist in laboratory, research, or analytical work under the direction or supervision of scientific personnel. The technician has a critical role in the fabrication process and ultimate delivery of the prototype systems with a focus on ensuring quality material, parts, and assemblies are delivered to the program teams. The technician will perform various routine jobs of a skilled or semi-skilled nature and assist in providing flight quality cleanroom operation. In addition, an individual who performs various routine jobs of a skilled or semi-skilled nature, such as chassis wiring, keeping apparatus in good condition and performing laboratory tests and analysis.
