Job Description

Love precision work and solving what failed—and why?

Join a purpose-built hydraulic repair shop where the bench is your domain. You won’t be doing preventive maintenance, facilities tasks, or servicing production equipment. Your mission is laser-focused: diagnose, rebuild, and test hydraulic components to original specifications.

Is this you?

• You can tear down a pump, cylinder, valve, motor, or gearbox and immediately spot wear patterns.
• You’re fluent in hydraulic schematics, exploded views, and OEM manuals.
• You handle seals, bearings, and shafts with care—and hold tolerances without compromise.
• You take pride in a spotless bench, accurate documentation, and test-verified results.
• You prefer running your own projects from first inspection to final sign-off.

What you’ll do

• Diagnose root causes through systematic teardown, cleaning, inspection, measurement, and testing
• Rebuild hydraulic pumps, cylinders, valves, motors, gearboxes, and related assemblies to OEM spec
• Replace seals, bearings, shafts, and other components while upholding critical tolerances
• Interpret and follow hydraulic schematics, exploded views, and OEM repair procedures
• Perform bench testing and quality checks before release
• Document findings, bill of materials/parts used, and test data
• Independently manage multiple repair projects to completion
• Maintain a safe, organized, and clean work area

Must-haves

• Strong mechanical aptitude and troubleshooting mindset
• Experience repairing and rebuilding components from multiple hydraulic OEMs
• Ability to read and apply hydraulic schematics and technical manuals
• Confidence with precision measuring tools and standard shop equipment
• Self-motivated and able to work with minimal supervision
• High attention to detail and quality

Qualifications

• 5+ years in hydraulic repair
• Experience in industrial hydraulics
• Machining or fabrication exposure is a plus

Schedule

On-site, Monday–Friday, 8am–5pm

Benefits you can count on

• Medical, Dental, Vision, and Life Insurance available
• Paid Holidays
• 401(k) with 100% match up to 6% employee deferral
