• Hands-on Mentality: You enjoy getting your hands dirty and moving from the screen to the workbench.
• Communication: Excellent verbal and written communication skills; ability to convey technical information concisely.
• Technical Skills: Basic knowledge of electrical systems and wiring principles.
• Experience with a multimeter and basic harness/crimping tasks is a significant advantage.
• Availability: Starting as soon as possible for a minimum duration of 4 months.
• Location: We are only considering candidates currently residing in Switzerland with a valid work permit.
