Job description

Job Type

Full-time

Description

This role focuses on the repair, rebuild, and testing of industrial pumps and rotating equipment. You'll work on a wide variety of equipment, diagnosing failures, rebuilding components, and supporting equipment repairs from tear-down through final testing. This role focuses on repair and rebuild work - not routine plant maintenance. Rather than performing preventive maintenance on operating equipment, you'll be involved in complete tear-downs, failure analysis, rebuilds, and remanufacturing work that restores equipment to OEM specifications.
