Why this role is awesome:
As a Senior Technician at Vay, you'll play a key role in bringing the future of mobility to life. You'll be hands-on with cutting-edge Remote Driving technology, transforming vehicles into remotely operated systems and helping us scale our fleet in Las Vegas.
This isn't your typical technician role. You'll work across mechanical, electrical, and advanced vehicle systems, tackling technical challenges that don't always come with a manual. You'll collaborate closely with our engineering and operations teams, help guide fellow technicians, and directly influence how we build, test, and improve our technology.
If you love getting your hands dirty, solving complex problems, and seeing the results of your work out on the road, this is your opportunity.
What you'll be driving:
-
Build the future of mobility: Assemble, install, and integrate mechanical, electrical, communication, camera, and sensor systems into our remotely operated vehicles and Tele-stations.
-
Test and troubleshoot: Perform system validation, diagnostics, and troubleshooting using multimeters, precision instruments, and computer-based diagnostic tools.
-
Solve complex challenges: Identify and resolve mechanical, electrical, and software-related issues, including those involving EV systems, embedded electronics, and Linux-based platforms.
-
Support fleet expansion: Coordinate vehicle builds, track production progress, and ensure high-quality systems are delivered on schedule.
-
Lead by example: Share technical expertise, mentor fellow technicians, and help maintain a collaborative, high-performing workshop environment.
-
Drive continuous improvement: Identify opportunities to improve assembly processes, reduce inefficiencies, and introduce LEAN manufacturing practices.
-
Own quality and safety: Maintain accurate digital build and maintenance records while ensuring the highest standards of workshop safety, quality, and organization.
What are we looking for:
-
5+ years of hands-on experience in automotive, EV, aerospace, or a similar technical maintenance or systems integration environment.
-
Strong mechanical and electrical troubleshooting skills, including wiring, soldering, and electronic system diagnostics.
-
Experience assembling, modifying, or integrating complex vehicle systems, ideally including prototype, experimental, or custom vehicle builds.
-
Confidence working with Linux-based systems and computer-based diagnostic tools.
-
Familiarity with EV technology, embedded systems, cameras, sensors, or autonomous vehicle hardware is a strong advantage.
-
Experience applying LEAN manufacturing principles and improving workshop or production processes.
-
A proactive, hands-on approach with the ability to solve unfamiliar technical challenges independently.
-
Strong attention to detail, a safety-first mindset, and the ability to work effectively across engineering and operations teams.

A technical trade qualification, Associate Degree, or equivalent practical experience. ASE or manufacturer certifications are a plus.
