About Us
We are Binho. We build the products people talk about.
We develop, sell, and support our own hardware and software products under the Binho brand as well as develop custom, bespoke solutions for our clients, often tackling projects in drone delivery, autonomous vehicles, consumer IoT, AI-enabled wearable devices, advanced robotics, non-terrestrial RF communication, industrial automation platforms, and more.
Our internally developed products are used by 175+ teams at global semiconductor companies, a reach made possible by the way we’ve engineered the playbook for making hybrid teams deliver outstanding results. That expertise has also made us recognized industry leaders in I3C protocol implementation and verification — and as MIPI Alliance contributor members, we’re helping shape the ongoing I3C specification itself.
We’re doing extraordinary work. If you’re exceptional and want to create technology that pushes boundaries and defines the future, we want you on our team.
About This Role
We’re seeking an experienced electronics technician who can confidently handle the full range of bench work — from precision soldering and PCB rework to measurement, testing, and troubleshooting. You’ll work independently to turn designs from schematics into fully tested assemblies, ensuring every build meets exacting quality standards. Your working knowledge of circuits, microcontrollers, and communication systems will support your day-to-day assembly and rework tasks, as well as occasional technical problem-solving.
In addition to your technical work, you’ll help keep the lab running smoothly through ongoing organization, inventory upkeep, and general operational support. The hardware you build and verify will go into products relied on by leading technology companies.
