Christchurch, New Zealand Basis Full time

**About Us**

Are you looking for an opportunity to make a real difference in your next role?

Why? As a society, we need to decarbonise and accelerate the transition to alternative energy sources. Existing solutions are expensive and disparate, with limited functionality.

Basis is driven by purpose, real innovation, and ambition. We have a talented team spread across New Zealand, with a creative space by the beach in Takapuna, and a Design Lab in Christchurch where our physical products come to life. We're more than happy to take on someone who wants to work remotely from a different location across New Zealand too, or wants to relocate.

We've recently closed our Series A Capital Raise so we are well-funded and ready to grow. Our team is smart, curious and has some big goals - so if you’re interested in joining a fast-growing and startup that is design-led and puts people at its core, then we’d love to hear from you

We're also currently in stealth mode, so check out our website and we'll share more with you during the recruitment process

**The Role**

To support the growth of our engineering team and R&D lab, we are now looking for a Junior Lab Technician. This is a very hands-on role where you'll contribute by supporting a wide range of engineers day to day in the lab, building and modifying circuit prototypes as well as keeping the lab stocked with the right components and consumables. You'll also wire up our test racks and jigs in a safe and tidy manner and help maintain our test equipment. With mentoring from our experienced lab technician as well as the wider hardware team, you'll be able to further grow your skills in this role.

Some of the things that you might be involved in include:

- Inventory and purchasing of lab consumables
- Soldering assistance and reworking of prototypes
- Commission and wiring new test set-ups and test equipment
- Assisting our Lab Technician with repairing faulty lab equipment
- Helping to plan the inevitable expansion of our lab
- Assisting with the collection and delivery of parts and products to our manufacturer

This is a great opportunity for someone who wants to grow their career in electronics whilst working in a fun, energetic and passionate start-up with big goals over the next two years You will be able to accelerate your career working with some of the best and brightest minds in the industry. For more information, here is a link to the job description.
