Production Technician

Overview

Skilled in drone assembly and composites manufacturing with experience in precision work, quality inspection, electrical and mechanical assembly, carbon fiber layup, vacuum bagging, and SOP-based production processes. Strong attention to detail with the ability to identify defects, maintain production standards, and support continuous improvement initiatives.

 
 

Job Description

Common across both tracks:

Precision Work — Do detailed, careful work where alignment and finish matter. Millimetre-level accuracy, clean cable layout, correct tightness, no shortcuts

Quality Focus — Check your own work at every step, point out problems early, follow checklists carefully, and keep proper build records

Spotting Defects — Inspect parts for issues relevant to your track — misalignment, loose fasteners, bad crimps (Assembly) or air pockets, layer separation, dry spots, and resin-starved areas (Composites); raise issues early and help find the root cause

Tools & Workstation Care — Keep your bench, jigs, fixtures, moulds, and tools clean and ready; leave the line tidy so the next shift can start without trouble

Proto Support (for top performers) — Work directly with engineers on first builds, fix fitment issues and share what you learn back to production

Continuous Improvement — Suggest fixes when something is slow, error-prone, or unsafe; small daily improvements add up

Assembly Track:

Drone Assembly — Build sub-assemblies and full aircraft following SOPs - fitting the airframe, mounting motors and ESCs, routing harnesses, placing sensors, and tightening fasteners to the right spec

Electrical & Mechanical Work — Crimping, soldering, building wire harnesses, and using torque tools across the aircraft

Adhesive Dispensing & Surface Prep — Comfort with using adhesive guns and doing surface prep like sanding is a strong plus

Composites Track:

Composites Work — Cut, place, and lay up carbon fibre and fibreglass layers into moulds as per the layup plan; work with resin systems, wet layup, and prepreg

Vacuum Bagging & Curing — Set up bagging materials, breather layers, and vacuum lines; remove air pockets and hold a full vacuum without leaks; run oven and autoclave cycles from start to finish

Qualifications

Must-Have:

Excellent hand skills and a steady hand — able to work with small parts, fine wires, tight tolerances, or delicate layups without losing patience

Comfort reading basic engineering drawings, parts lists, layup plans, and assembly instructions

Ability to follow SOPs carefully while also speaking up when something doesn't look right

Willingness to commute to or relocate near Hoskote

For experienced candidates: Real hands-on experience in assembly, fabrication, or composites — through past work or vocational training

Good to Have

For freshers: Hands-on experience through personal projects, vocational training, or internships

ITI / Diploma in Fitter, Electronics Mechanic, Mechanic (Motor Vehicle), or similar trade

Past experience in drone, aerospace, EV, robotics, wind energy, marine FRP, or precision instrument manufacturing

Familiarity with crimping, soldering, harness building, torque tools, adhesive dispensing, and sanding (Assembly Track) or prepreg carbon fibre, vacuum infusion, and autoclave work (Composites Track)

Exposure to lean manufacturing, 5S, or production line ways of working

Who You Are

Cares about getting the job done thoroughly

Have an eye detail work and doesn't cut corners

Comfortable asking questions when unsure

Can focus through long, repetitive tasks

Wants to work on drones that actually fly
