There are manufacturers of industrial instruments and equipment in Austin. What I would call small and medium scale. Example CBG Corp., Thermo Fisher Scientific, BAE Systems, 3M

I used to work in a Dell factory in 2005. Last time I heard, it closed down. I wonder what happened.

Never understood why I had to wear those "high visibility" yellow straps around my ankles on my work boots (yeah, I'm sure the first thing the forklift driver sees before running over you are those yellow straps on your boots) and I couldn't wear a watch on the assembly line. Nor they had clocks in the line of view of employees, and only the shift supervisor is allowed to see the clock on the computer at the end of the assembly line.

Glad I got out of that.
