ABOUT CASSIDA
Cassida Corporation is a leading manufacturer and distributor of professional currency handling equipment — including bill counters, coin counters, and counterfeit detection devices — trusted by businesses, financial institutions, and retailers across North America. With a nationwide distribution network spanning Amazon, authorized dealers, and wholesale partners, Cassida is recognized as a premium brand in the cash management industry.
We are a fast-growing, results-driven team based in San Diego, and we take pride in the quality of both our products and our people.
POSITION OVERVIEW
We are looking for a skilled and detail-oriented Repair Technician to join our in-house service team in San Diego. In this role, you will be the technical expert responsible for diagnosing, repairing, calibrating, and quality-testing Cassida currency handling equipment returned by customers and dealers across the country.
You will work hands-on in our facility, handling a high-quality queue of returned units — from bill counters and coin sorters to counterfeit detectors — and ensuring every repaired device leaves our shop in peak condition. This is not a field service role. It is a precision-focused, in-house position for someone who takes genuine pride in technical craftsmanship and efficient turnaround.
If you have a strong background in electronics and electromechanical repair, a methodical approach to troubleshooting, and a drive to deliver quality work — this role is built for you.
WHAT YOU WILL DO
- Receive, inspect, and log returned equipment, documenting initial condition and reported failure for every unit
- Diagnose malfunctions using multimeters, oscilloscopes, and other diagnostic tools — identifying root cause at the component level
- Perform PCB-level repairs including soldering, desoldering, and replacement of electronic components (through-hole and SMD)
- Repair and service electromechanical assemblies including motors, sensors, rollers, belts, and drive systems
- Calibrate repaired units to factory specifications and conduct full post-repair functional testing
- Test counterfeit detection performance across all sensor types to verify compliance with Cassida quality standards
- Process both warranty and non-warranty repairs within established turnaround time targets
- Maintain accurate repair records, including failure codes, parts used, labor time, and resolution outcomes
- Identify recurring failure patterns across product lines and communicate findings to the Product and Technical Support teams
- Support parts inventory management — track component usage, flag low-stock items, and maintain an organized workbench
- Provide clear technical communication to the customer service team regarding repair status, findings, and timelines
WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR
Required
- 2+ years of hands-on experience in electronics repair, electromechanical systems, or a related technical discipline
- Proficiency in PCB-level diagnosis and repair, including soldering and desoldering (through-hole and SMD)
- Ability to read and interpret electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, and technical service manuals
- Hands-on experience with diagnostic tools including multimeters, oscilloscopes, and bench test equipment
- Strong mechanical aptitude — experience servicing motors, sensors, belts, rollers, and precision mechanical assemblies
- Methodical, organized approach to troubleshooting — you diagnose root cause, not just symptoms
- Ability to manage a queue of open repair jobs, prioritize effectively, and meet turnaround targets
- Clear written communication skills for repair documentation and cross-team coordination
Preferred
- Prior experience repairing currency handling equipment, banking devices, POS systems, or similar commercial electromechanical products
- Familiarity with counterfeit detection technology (UV, magnetic, infrared sensors)
- Associate degree, vocational certification, or military technical training in Electronics Technology, Electrical Engineering, or related field
- Experience with warranty processing and repair tracking systems
WHAT WE OFFER
- Competitive compensation commensurate with experience
- Health, dental, and life insurance
- 401(k) retirement plan
- Paid vacation and sick leave (after 90-day probationary period)
- Stable, full-time, on-site position in our San Diego facility
- A direct role with real impact — your work keeps Cassida products performing at the standard our customers expect
- Clear path for growth as the company scales
