Hardware Assembly Technician
Position Summary & Responsibilities
About Eyebot
Eyebot builds self-guided vision test kiosks. A person walks up, takes a short vision test, and a licensed eye doctor reviews the results before a glasses prescription is issued. No appointment needed. We're based at the Schrafft's Center in Charlestown, backed by top investors and the National Science Foundation. Every kiosk goes through final assembly and calibration at our Charlestown production floor before it ships.
About the Role
We're hiring a Hardware Assembly Technician for our Charlestown production floor. You'll take each kiosk through final assembly and calibration. That means fastening the steel cabinet together, installing the electronics and optics, running the tests, and crating it up for shipment. You'll work from photo step-by-step work instructions alongside our technicians and engineers, and you'll report to the line supervisor, who runs the floor day to day.
What You'll Do
You'll be the person who turns a pallet of parts into a finished kiosk that helps people see clearly. The work is a mix, roughly an even split over a week. Part of it is teamwork out on the floor: uncrating and re-crating 300 lb kiosks, standing each one up in pairs, and moving them around the floor on a manual pallet jack. The rest is precision bench work: wiring, mounting boards, and fitting small hardware at a station where you can sit or stand. Every kiosk that ships has been built, tested, and signed off by your hands. Day to day, you'll:
Move kiosks between receiving, the build area, calibration, and shipping on a manual pallet jack. Every kiosk rides on a pallet from the day it arrives until it leaves, so this is a big part of keeping the line moving.
Fasten steel panels, doors, and brackets to spec with electric and click-type torque drivers, hex and Torx bits, and rivet tools.
Mount circuit boards, computers, routers, and power supplies, route and connect cables, and handle boards at an ESD station.
Build small optical subassemblies at the bench: mirrors, filters, and camera modules handled with gloves and tweezers.
Run calibrations and function tests on finished
