insert standard run-of-the-mill PCB assembly steps here
Paste, place, reflow. Paste, place, reflow. Solder the rest of the components manually.

It went pretty normal, although the assembly order of the straddle-mount USB-C connector needed a bit of thought ^^
I ended up with this procedure:

  • Reflow the top side without the connector
  • Place it after the paste of the bottom side and put flux on the top side contacts
  • Reflow bottom side with hot air
