Wire Bender Technician (Orthodontic Appliances) Are you someone who enjoys working with your hands, has a keen eye for detail, and takes pride in creating precise, high-quality work? Join our close-knit team in Woodinville as a Wire Bender Technician, where your craftsmanship directly contributes to making orthodontic appliances that help patients smile with confidence and improve their overall health. Here, your creativity and mechanical aptitude will be valued, and you’ll receive hands-on training to develop your skills in a supportive, collaborative environment. What You’ll Do Interpret detailed doctor prescriptions and specifications to accurately shape and bend wire components used in orthodontic appliances. Use specialized hand tools to craft and assemble wire parts with precision, maintaining strict quality and tolerance standards. Work closely alongside experienced technicians during your training, gradually building independence while maintaining open communication and asking questions as needed. Inspect your work carefully and adjust as necessary before final quality control, ensuring every appliance meets clinical expectations. Keep your workstation organized and efficient to support a smooth production flow and meet scheduled deadlines. Embrace ongoing learning opportunities to refine your technical skills and adapt to new fabrication techniques. What You Might Bring If you’ve ever enjoyed hobbies or work involving fine motor skills, such as jewelry making, model building, fly-tying, soldering small wires, or wire sculpture, you may find this role a great fit. People who thrive here often have mechanical aptitude, patience, and a steady hand for working with small components and detailed instructions. You don’t need direct orthodontic or dental lab experience; we provide thorough training to help you succeed. What matters most is your reliability, willingness to learn, and ability to apply feedback quickly. Being punctual, consistent, and coachable will help you thrive in this role. Flexibility to work overtime during our busy times and a positive attitude toward meeting production expectations are also key.
