Compressor and Turbine Rebuild Mechanic

Elliott Group

Job Description

Are you the person who asks the right questions before you lift a wrench? Do you instinctively plan your rigging, validate your drawings, and set up your gauges so every measurement is right the first time? If so, read on.

The challenge

You’ll be trusted to independently plan and execute full-cycle repairs on rotating equipment—from compressors to turbines—while collaborating with a team and communicating clearly across shifts.

How you’ll tackle it

Plan: Review work scopes, drawings, sketches, procedures, and specifications; determine tooling and setup needs.
Make it safe: Lead with safety and quality; establish rigging and lifting plans and operate cranes/forklifts expertly.
Execute: Disassemble, inspect, alter, repair, replace, and reassemble rotors, disc and blade holders, shafts, sleeves, gears, couplings, and related components.
Measure: Use micrometers, indicators, calipers, and gauges to capture critical dimensions; record clearances with advanced accuracy.
Document: Complete inspection reports, maintain photo logs, apply hold tags, and communicate irregularities.
Deliver: Align, install, and verify equipment performance; maintain a clean, organized workspace; engage professionally with customers.
Elevate others: Train peers in repair processes and procedures to strengthen team capability.

What success looks like

Jobs completed safely, on time, and to specification using the appropriate equipment, tooling, and processes.
Seamless handoffs supported by detailed documentation to maintain continuity among work shifts.
Ownership of work quality and continuous skill growth.

Must-haves

High School Diploma or Equivalency.
5–8 years of experience with rotating turbomachinery.
Advanced rigging capability; demonstrated crane and forklift operation.
Advanced measuring capability with precision instruments.
Direct experience with turbines, compressors, and other rotating equipment.
Able to pass the annual dimensional inspection test.

Core competencies

Mechanical Troubleshooting Skills
Mechanical Assembly Skills

If precision, planning, and mentorship are your strengths, you’ll thrive in this role.
