Hardware Technician

About Haply


Haply Robotics builds the world's most precise haptic devices. Our products (Inverse3, VerseGrip, MinVerse, Haply Hub, HARP) are deployed across research labs, industrial integration projects, and production environments where the difference between "good" and "right" is measured in milliseconds and millinewtons. As robots and autonomous systems become more capable, humans still need intuitive ways to teach, guide, and supervise physical tasks. Haply builds the platform that allows people to program and train machines through touch and motion. 

About the Role


As a Hardware Technician, you'll work hands-on with Haply's hardware, taking assigned builds from kitted parts to a finished, QC-passed unit. You'll assemble miniature transmissions and housings by hand, modify components for fit, support basic PCB integration, and inspect assemblies against spec before they move on.


You'll also own the day-to-day discipline around your builds: logging build time and task status in Odoo, keeping your workstation, tools and jigs in working order, spotting issues early, and giving feedback on assembly steps and processes. The goal in your first 3–6 months is to get fully trained on the assembly process and build units independently at the target rate.

What You’ll Do

  • Precision assembly: Assemble miniature transmissions and housings by hand, using jigs, glues and hand tools.
  • Component modification: Modify parts for fit with a drill press and Dremel, and do basic PCB integration.
  • Quality checks: Inspect assemblies against spec before they move on, and flag defects or out-of-tolerance parts.
  • Operations and reporting: Log build time and task status daily in Odoo, and report technical inconsistencies to the Lead Tech.
  • Tools and inventory: Maintain shop tools and jigs, track consumables and parts stock, and flag reorder needs.
  • Process improvement: Give feedback on assembly steps, jigs and instructions to cut build time and rework.
  • Safety and upkeep: Keep the workspace organized to "Cleanroom Lite" standard and follow shop safety rules strictly.

What You'll Own Independently

  • Your assigned builds from kitted parts to a finished, QC-passed unit.
  • Accurate daily time and task logging in Odoo.
  • Keeping your workstation, tools and jigs clean and in working order.
  • Spotting and escalating build issues without waiting to be asked.
  • Your First 3–6 Months

  • Get fully trained on the assembly process and build units independently at the target rate.
  • KPI: Manufacturing Throughput

What We're Looking For

  • 3 years hands-on in a shop or assembly environment.
  • Basic power tools, including a drill press and rotary tool (Dremel).
  • Precision hand tools (iFixit-style kits).
  • Very good manual coordination and a steady hand for small, repetitive work.
  • Disciplined about logging time and tasks.
  • Fluent in English and French.
  • High school diploma or GED.
  • Hands-on fabrication or assembly work, such as wood or metal shops, bike shops or production lines.
  • Canadian citizen or permanent resident.
  • Able to work on-site in Montreal full-time.
  • Fine-motor precision (tested with a hands-on assembly exercise).
  • Willing to log time and tasks daily and accurately.
  • Passes a criminal record check or security screening.

Nice to have

  • Soldering.
  • 3D printing (SLA/FDM).
  • Basic lathe work.
  • Odoo or another ERP/inventory system.
  • Electronics, electromechanical, robotics or medical-device assembly.
  • Any production environment with documented QC.
  • A trade certificate or technical training (DEP/DEC, mechanics, engineering tech).
  • Experience designing or improving jigs.
  • Reading basic mechanical drawings.

What's great in the job?


  • Own your assigned builds from kitted parts to a finished, QC-passed unit.
  • Work hands-on with precision assembly, tools and electromechanical components.
  • Build your skills until you can complete units independently at the target rate.
  • Have a direct role in improving assembly steps, jigs and instructions.
  • Take ownership of quality and spot build issues before they move forward.
