- Align, fit, and torque large components—gearboxes, bearings, shafts—within tight tolerances.
- Own your area’s safety and housekeeping to eliminate hazards and prevent injuries.
- Deliver to schedule by completing tasks inside defined cycle times and helping teammates when needed.
- Move, lift, position, and remove components and materials to keep production flowing.
- Work with Quality, PQA, and Engineering to run root-cause investigations and refine processes.
- Participate in audits and continuous improvement activities.
- Jump in to support neighboring lines and assist electrical assembly as required.
- High school diploma or GED (required).
- Mechanical certifications or technical schooling.
- 3+ years of mechanical assembly or heavy manufacturing experience.
- Comfortable reading work instructions, mechanical drawings, and technical documents.
- Experience in wind turbine, automotive, or industrial equipment assembly.
- Demonstrated mechanical aptitude and hands-on skill.
- Strong commitment to safety and quality standards.
- Team-first attitude and the ability to perform in a fast-paced environment.
- Accountable, dependable, and results-oriented.
- Positive, growth-focused mindset.
- Overhead crane operation experience and the ability to obtain/maintain crane operator certification (required).
- Fluent with torque tools, pneumatic/hydraulic tooling, and precision measurement devices.
- Ability to pass a respiratory fit test (required) and work at heights.
- Nice to have: understanding of ISO 9000:2000 quality systems.
We prize safe operations above all else. You will follow governing regulations and company policies, proactively remove hazards, and wear proper PPE (eye protection, hearing protection, steel-toe boots, hard hat).
