Production Support Technician - Electronics Montreal

I'm Ella Tiberghien, Recruitment Consultant with FED ManuTech. I'm currently recruiting a Production Support Technician for a manufacturing company specialized in immersive entertainment technologies and solutions.
This is a hands-on opportunity for an electronics technician who enjoys troubleshooting, working closely with production teams and having a direct impact on day-to-day operations.

Mission

As part of the Production Support team, you will act as a Level 3 technical resource for production operators, stepping in when issues require deeper technical troubleshooting.
Your responsibilities will include:
• Troubleshooting complex production issues and identifying practical solutions;
• Troubleshooting and updating LabVIEW-based production test benches;
• Performing PCB soldering and basic electronic repairs;
• Supporting the repair team with technical issues and diagnostics;
• Understanding operators' observations and translating non-technical problems into actionable technical solutions;
• Supporting technical projects, including supplier-related activities;
• Working closely with production, repair and engineering teams to keep operations running smoothly.
This is primarily a hands-on troubleshooting and production support position, within a manual assembly environment rather than a highly automated production line.

Your profile

We are looking for a hands-on technician who is comfortable investigating problems independently and working directly with production teams.
• DEC in Electronics, Electrotechnology, Mechanical Engineering Technology or a related field;
• 3-5 years of experience in a manufacturing environment;
• Strong LabVIEW experience - mandatory;
• Experience with PCB soldering and basic electronic repair;
• Strong troubleshooting and problem-solving abilities;
• Mechanical skills or experience with design software such as SolidWorks are considered an asset;
• Strong French communication skills;
• Professional English for communication with international suppliers, particularly in Asia.
You are patient, proactive and resourceful, with the communication skills needed to work effectively with operators who may not have a technical background.
Working Conditions
• Salary: $70,000-$80,000 per year, depending on experience;
• Primarily on-site to provide direct production support;
• Some schedule flexibility;
• Hands-on technical environment involving equipment, test benches and electronic products;
• Collaboration with multidisciplinary teams and international suppliers;
• Opportunity to contribute to technical projects in addition to day-to-day production support.
If you enjoy troubleshooting, working hands-on and finding practical solutions to technical problems, this could be a great opportunity for you. I'd be happy to discuss the position and the environment with you in more detail.
