# Electronics Technician at Precision AI

- **Company:** Precision AI
- **Location:** Calgary, Canada
- **Employment:** full-time
- **Work type:** onsite
- **Posted:** 2026-10-21

## Job description

## Role Overview

The Electronics Technician at Precision AI will build, test, and repair the electrical assemblies that power our precision spraying technologies. This is a hands-on role for someone who is comfortable at the bench and on the hardware, and who knows when to bring an engineer in to solve a problem. You will help turn engineering designs into reliable, repeatable builds.

You will report to our Lead Technical Program Manager and work closely with our hardware and electrical engineers, who will provide the designs, drawings, and technical direction for your work.

This role is based in Calgary and will work from Precision AI’s headquarters five days a week.

## Key Responsibilities

Assembly & Build

- Build wiring harnesses and electrical assemblies for UAV subsystems, test rigs, and prototype platforms from schematics and harness drawings.
- Solder, crimp, and terminate wires and connectors to a consistently high standard.
- Route and secure harnesses within the aircraft with attention to vibration, strain relief, and serviceability.

Testing, Troubleshooting & Rework

- Perform continuity, insulation, and functional tests on harnesses and assemblies before and after installation.
- Use a multimeter and other basic test equipment to diagnose faults such as shorts, loose connections, and connector failures.
- Repair and rework assemblies in the lab and in the field.
- Escalate issues beyond basic troubleshooting to engineers, with clear measurements and observations.

Documentation & Quality

- Maintain labeling, build records, and revision tracking for the assemblies you build.
- Contribute to checklists and work instructions that improve build quality and repeatability.

Relevant Experience

Required

- Hands-on experience building wiring harnesses or electronic assemblies, ideally in aerospace, robotics, automotive, or a similar manufacturing environment.
- Proficient with soldering, crimping, wire stripping, and basic hand tools.
- Able to read schematics, wiring diagrams, and harness drawings.
- Working knowledge of basic electronics, including what to measure and what the readings mean, so you can describe a problem clearly to an engineer.
- Experience debugging electrical issues on real hardware, such as shorts, loose connections, and connector failures.
- Strong attention to detail, with good judgment on when to escalate and clear communication when you do.
- Diploma or certificate in electronics technology or a related field, or equivalent hands-on experience.

Bonus

- IPC/WHMA-A-620 or IPC J-STD-001 certification.
- Familiarity with UAVs, RC aircraft, or robotics hardware operating in outdoor or high-vibration environments.
- Experience with oscilloscopes or basic PCB rework.
- Experience supporting field testing or field repairs.

- **One-liner**: Precision AI develops autonomous drone systems powered by artificial intelligence to enable plant-level precision spraying and crop protection for agriculture.
- **Entity Type**: Private (Funding Stage: Series A)
- **Headquarters**: Calgary, Alberta, Canada
- **Founded**: 2017
- **Founders**: Daniel McCann

## Core Business
- **Primary industry**: Agricultural Technology (AgTech), Drone Manufacturing, Artificial Intelligence
- **Target customers**: Small to large farms, farm machinery manufacturers (B2B)
- **Mission or purpose statement**: “To accelerate artificial intelligence based farming practices to create healthier, happier, and more profitable farms” [linkedin.com](https://linkedin.com/company/precision-ai)

## Products & Services
- **Stratus AirSprayer™**: The world’s first fully autonomous aerial sprayer with advanced AI, designed for broad-acre crop protection.
- **SOLV™ Intelligence**: AI-driven software platform that processes visual data from drones to identify individual weeds and enable surgical chemical application.
- **Drone Swarm System**: A fleet of AI-powered drones that work collaboratively to cover large fields with precision spraying.

## Market Standing
- **Valuation**: Not disclosed
- **Key Metric – Total Funding**: $21.5 million across 6 rounds (Pre-Seed, Grant, Seed, and two Series A rounds)
- **Notable Investors/Partners**: At One Ventures, BDC Capital (Business Development Bank of Canada), Sustainable Development Technology Canada, Protein Industries Canada, Cooperative Ventures, John Deere (2023 collaborator) [dealroom.co](https://app.dealroom.co/companies/precision_1)
- **Growth Signals**: Headcount grew 60.7% year-over-year (28 employees as of latest data); expanding presence across 5 countries (Canada, United States, Egypt, Chile, Portugal); won the ‘Innovation Award in Environmental Sustainability’ at Ag in Motion 2022

## Competitive Advantages
- **Patented AI**: Proprietary computer vision models that can distinguish individual weeds from crops in real-time, enabling chemical use reduction of up to 90%.
- **Full-stack autonomy**: Precision AI controls the entire stack — hardware (drones), software (AI/ML), and spraying mechanics — creating a vertically integrated moat.
- **First-mover in aerial precision agriculture**: Unlike ground-based sprayers, their aerial platform can operate in wet field conditions and cover terrain more quickly without crop damage.

## Strategic Focus
- Scaling deployment of the Stratus AirSprayer™ to commercial farms in North America.
- Deepening AI capabilities in multimodal models (LLMs, VLMs, vision transformers) to improve weed detection and crop health analysis.
- Expanding partnerships with major agricultural OEMs and farm machinery manufacturers.

## Why Work Here
- **Culture**: Fast-moving, impact-driven team focused on solving real-world environmental and food production challenges.
- **Location**: Onsite role based in Calgary (near Glenmore Trail), with a growing global team spanning Canada, the US, Egypt, Chile, and Portugal.
- **Engineering culture**: Research-driven environment that encourages experimentation with cutting-edge ML techniques (transfer learning, RAG, diffusion models) and staying current with academic papers.
- **Perks & growth**: Opportunity to work on AI models that go from experimentation to production in a hardware-software integrated product; small but rapidly scaling team (60%+ headcount growth YoY) offers high ownership and visibility.
