What electronics manufacturing roles does Pro-Tech staff?
PCB assembly technicians, SMT operators, hand-soldering techs (through-hole and reflow), AOI operators, rework and repair technicians, conformal coating operators, wire harness assemblers, test technicians, and QC inspectors. We staff the full production floor of an electronics manufacturer or EMS company on a temporary, temp-to-hire, or direct-placement basis.
Do you provide IPC-certified workers?
Yes. We verify current certifications, and our in-house IPC trainers can certify candidates to IPC-A-610, IPC-620, and J-STD-001 before placement. Candidates arrive with current, documented certifications — not credentials that are still in progress.
What is the difference between IPC-A-610, J-STD-001, and IPC-620?
IPC-A-610 is the acceptability standard for finished electronic assemblies — the QC and inspection baseline. J-STD-001 certifies the hand-soldering process itself. IPC/WHMA-A-620 covers cable and wire harness assembly. A high-reliability or aerospace program may also require the J-STD-001 Space Addendum. We match the certification to the standard your line runs.
How fast can you fill electronics manufacturing roles?
Most roles are filled within 48 hours when we have certified candidates in the local pool. Roles requiring a specific certification or a rare specialization may take 48–72 hours. For new-line ramps or surge needs, tell us early and we will stage candidates ahead of the start date.
Can you staff a full SMT or PCB assembly line, not just individuals?
Yes. We regularly staff complete shifts — operators, inspectors, rework, and leads — for production ramps, second- and third-shift coverage, and seasonal surges. We coordinate the whole crew so the line runs, rather than filling one seat at a time.
How do you screen for the precision this work requires?
Every candidate is skills-verified for the specific role, background-checked, and drug-screened before placement, and we screen specifically for experience in documented, zero-defect environments. Our full screening process is detailed on our How We Screen page.
Do you staff for EMS companies and contract manufacturers?
Yes — EMS and contract manufacturers are a core client type. We understand the high-mix, low-volume environments where the build changes constantly, and we screen for candidates who can move between products and customers without a long re-ramp.
Which markets do you staff electronics manufacturing in?
Our strongest electronics markets are Richardson and Garland (the North Texas telecom corridor), Tampa Bay (the Clearwater–Largo corridor), Silicon Valley (San Jose, Santa Clara, Milpitas, and Fremont), and Phoenix's East Valley. Each has a deep, distinct certified-worker pool our local recruiters know directly.
