STEM Technician

I) FRC & Maker Lab Facility

• Planning and Implementation
• Participate directly in the procurement process of all workshop machinery to fully master equipment quality from the start.
• Act as the highly knowledgeable technical expert whose machinery expertise is respected and relied upon by the teaching staff.
• Training:
• Conduct purely machine-specific and equipment operation training for students, ensuring they know how to operate the machinery safely (No academic or theory teaching).
• Using (Maintain & Safety):
• Establish, monitor, and strictly enforce workshop safety procedures.
• Directly handle routine maintenance, preventive care, and repairs of all machines to keep them in optimal condition.

Maker Lab Management

• Take full responsibility for managing all physical assets, safety, and organization of both the FRC Room and the Maker Lab.
• Ensure the spaces are clean, safe, well-organized, and always ready for hands-on fabrication (cutting, sawing, etc.).

Supporting FRC in Curriculum Implementation and Operation

• Provide supporting-only technical and hardware help (including CAD design assistance, mechanical assembly, physical fabrication, and robot testing) under the direction of lead teachers.
• Absolutely no involvement in running or operating the academic FRC curriculum.

Supporting Other Subjects to Use Maker Lab in Curriculum Implementation and Operation

• Assist and support teachers and students from other disciplines (such as Physics) to safely access and utilize the Maker Lab space and machinery for their academic projects.

Other Tasks:

• Perform other duties as assigned by the School.

• Technical
• CNC: At least 2 years of hands-on experience operating Router CNC machines.
• Others Machine: At least 1 year of experience operating other workshop machinery such as laser cutters, 3D printers, bench drills, grinders, saws, etc.
• Practical-Focused:
• Heavy emphasis on practical machinery mastery and hands-on skills.
• No prior experience in school or educational environments is required.
• A relevant technical or mechanical degree/certificate is preferred. However, candidates with outstanding hands-on expertise who lack formal degrees must pass a practical/demo test during the interview process.
• Degrees & Certifications
• Required: Bachelor’s Degree in Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics, Electromechanical Engineering, or a related technical field.
• Alternative Pathway: Candidates who lack formal degrees but demonstrate outstanding hands-on machinery mastery must pass a practical machine operation and demonstration test during the interview process.
• Attitude & Professional Qualities (School Environment Suitability)
• Safety-First Mindset & High Responsibility: Extreme meticulousness in supervising machinery and strictly enforcing workshop safety protocols to guarantee a 100% safe fabrication environment for students.
• Diligence & Cleanliness: Proactive, hardworking, and highly organized; takes full ownership of maintaining cleanliness, order, and tool organization in both the Maker Lab and FRC rooms.
• Patience & Student-Centric Support: Approachable, highly patient, and clear when training and guiding students on machinery operations (providing purely technical instruction without academic lecturing).
• Collaborative & Respectful: Coordinates smoothly with teaching staff and mentors; provides highly reliable technical advice on machine usage while fully respecting academic boundaries and leadership
• English: Strong workplace communication skills, with the ability to explain complex machinery operations in a simple, clear, and patient manner to students and colleagues.
