Modern Hydrogen is seeking an Electro-Mechanical Engineering Technician to join our Manufacturing team based in Woodinville, WA.

Wire & Terminate – Route harnesses, crimp connectors, and land 24 V–480 V field devices (motors, RTDs, mass-flow controllers, pressure transmitters) into PLC marshalling panels.
Test & Troubleshoot – Perform continuity and insulation-resistance checks, leak tests, and functional instrument calibrations; diagnose faults with multimeter, scope, or PLC diagnostics.
Iterate Rapidly – Support engineering change-orders and quick-turn re-work on evolving prototypes; fabricate or machine simple brackets and test fixtures as needed.
Document & Communicate – Maintain accurate build logs, red-line drawings, and update BOMs; raise issues in daily stand-ups and directly with leads and engineers as issues arise.
Champion Safety & 5S – Enforce LOTO, PPE, and hazardous-gas protocols; keep work cells clean, organized, and inspection-ready.
Field & Commissioning Support – Travel up to 10 % for system FAT/SATs or customer-site installs.
Other duties as assigned.

5+ years building or maintaining industrial equipment, test stands, or process skids.
Proficient reading mechanical drawings and electrical schematics/wiring diagrams.
Hands-on skill with standard shop and electrical tools (tube-benders, torque wrenches, crimpers, multimeters, insulation testers).
Able to lift 50 lbs; comfortable in PPE (steel toes, FR, respirator when required).
Strong written & verbal communication; thrives amid rapid changes and incomplete data.
Proficiency with Microsoft Office (e.g. Excel, Word, PowerPoint), as well as chat and teleconferencing applications (e.g. Teams, Slack)
Bonus Qualifications:
IPC/WHMA-A-620, J-STD-001, or similar wire-harness/ soldering certification.
Experience with PLC I/O checks, basic ladder logic, or HMI troubleshooting.
Background in hydrogen, natural-gas, or other hazardous-gas systems.
CNC, manual machining, or TIG welding experience for quick-turn fixtures.
Familiarity with ERP/MRP transactions and digital work-order systems.
You are encouraged to apply even if you don't have all the typical qualifications. Modern Hydrogen values diverse experiences, backgrounds and ideas, and we know diversity of thought contributes to our success. We encourage all interested candidates to apply.
Working Conditions:
Onsite, evening-shift role at our Woodinville pilot facility. Periodic evening or weekend push periods may occur during critical builds. Up to 10 % domestic travel for installation and commissioning.
