About the role

Help Us Build the Future of the Human Heart.

At BiVACOR, we're developing the world's most advanced total artificial heart, a technology capable of saving millions of lives around the world. We're a team united by purpose, working on something truly unprecedented. Every process you validate, every fixture you design, and every challenge you overcome plays a direct role in giving patients another shot at life. If that's the kind of work that gets you out of bed in the morning, we think you belong here.

About the Role

This is a hands-on technician role, not a production operator position. You’ll work closely with Engineering, Quality, and Operations to assemble, wire, solder, test, and troubleshoot complex electrical systems in a highly regulated environment. Working alongside a senior Electrical Manufacturing Technician currently onsite, this role offers real responsibility within a small, high-impact team.

Key Responsibilities

  • Perform precision wiring, cable harnessing, crimping and fine soldering of electrical assemblies
  • Assist with PCB assembly and electrical integration of control systems
  • Conduct in-process electrical and functional testing using in-house test equipment
  • Troubleshoot assembly and electrical issues and support root cause investigations
  • Support prototype builds, design verification, and validation activities alongside engineers
  • Set up and maintain assembly and test equipment, including basic calibration and preventive maintenance
  • Complete accurate production documentation, including device history records (DHR) in compliance with GMP/FDA standards
  • Mentor junior operators and maintain compliance within a cleanroom, regulated manufacturing environment

What You Bring

  • 4–7 years’ experience in electrical assembly, wire harnessing, or electromechanical manufacturing
  • Strong experience with wiring, cable harnessing, soldering small-gauge wires, and PCB work
  • Ability to read and interpret schematics and detailed technical documentation
  • Experience within regulated industries such as medical devices or aerospace preferred
  • Comfortable working independently with a quality-first mindset
  • Strong attention to detail and documentation discipline

What We Offer

BiVACOR offers a competitive compensation package and comprehensive benefits, including:

  • 401(k) with company matching
  • Medical, dental, and vision insurance
  • Health Savings Account (HSA) & Flexible Spending Account (FSA)
  • Life insurance & Employee Assistance Program
  • Generous paid time off

The expected salary range for this position based in Huntington Beach California is $28.00 to $34.00 per hour. Actual pay will be determined based on experience, qualifications, geographic location, and other job-related factors permitted by law. A discretionary annual bonus may be available based on individual and Company performance. This position also qualifies for the benefits detailed at the link provided below. Relocation benefits are not available for this posting
