PCB Rework Technician (Taiwan)

Responsibilities

• Perform precision rework and reballing of large BGAs, including custom ASIC packages exceeding 70mm in size.
• Operate large-format BGA rework machines specifically designed for custom, high-pin-count ICs and ASICs, ensuring precise alignment and thermal control.
• Rework SMT and through-hole components down to 0402 packages with excellent quality and consistency.
• Read and interpret engineering documentation, ECNs, schematics, and BOMs to execute component swaps and modifications.
• Perform advanced rework techniques such as trace cuts, jumper wire additions, micro-soldering, and circuit rerouting.
• Inspect reworked assemblies using X-ray or AOI systems to ensure joint integrity and alignment.
• Maintain detailed rework documentation and communicate findings or design improvement opportunities to engineers.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to troubleshoot issues and support rapid hardware iteration cycles.
• You may be a good fit if you
• 5+ years of hands-on experience in PCB rework, including:
• Large BGAs (>70mm), QFNs, and fine-pitch ICs
• Operating advanced rework systems for custom ASICs and high-power devices
• Proficient in reworking and inspecting QFN, BGA, and 0402-size components.
• Experience with hot air/IR rework stations, microscopes, soldering irons, and large-area rework platforms.
• Skilled at reading and executing from engineering rework instructions, layout files, and schematics.
• Familiarity with IPC-A-610 and IPC-7711/21 rework and inspection standards.
• Excellent attention to detail, steady manual dexterity, and fine visual inspection capabilities.
• Comfortable working in fast-paced R&D environments with rapidly evolving requirements
