Pump Technician

Spherion Staffing Corporation

Job Description

Job Description

Are you a skilled mechanic with experience repairing pumps, compressors, or rotating equipment? We are seeking a detail-oriented Vacuum Pump & Compressor Repair Technician to join our team in Fremont.

While we will fully train you on our specific engineering processes and equipment, previous hands-on experience working with vacuum pumps or air compressors is highly preferred. If you enjoy taking complex mechanical units apart, diagnosing root-cause failures, and rebuilding them with precision, your skills will thrive here. This is an exceptional opportunity to utilize your mechanical talent in a stable, long-term career within a highly valuable technical trade.

️ Top 3 Must-Haves

  • Pump & Compressor Experience: 3 to 5+ years of hands-on experience troubleshooting, repairing, or assembling mechanical components. We are highly prioritizing candidates with familiarity in:

    • Single-Stage or Two-Stage Oil-Sealed Rotary Vane Mechanical Pumps

    • Direct-Drive vs. Belt-Drive Mechanical Pumps

    • Dry Scroll Pumps (or Roots Blowers)

    • Experience with Air Compressors (highly transferable, as they are essentially vacuum pumps in reverse)

    • Familiarity with industry manufacturers such as: Edwards, Alcatel, Leybold, Pfeiffer, Varian/Agilent, Welch, Navac, or Anest Iwata

  • Tool & Machinery Proficiency: Comfort and familiarity with standard mechanical hand tools and basic shop equipment (such as belt sanders, drill presses, wire wheels, and grinders).

  • Physical Capability & Safety Focus: Ability to lift up to 50 lbs. assistance-free and a strict commitment to safe shop work practices.

What a Typical Day Looks Like

  • 80% Tear-Down & Precision Rebuild: Using standard shop tools to disassemble vacuum pumps and mechanical units, cleaning parts meticulously, identifying worn or broken components, and reassembling them to exact manufacturer specifications.

  • 10% Testing & Basic Wiring: Learning to safely connect, wire, and run the rebuilt units to ensure they meet performance and safety specifications.

  • 10% Shop Safety & Organization: Keeping your personal workspace clean, safe, and organized.

Duties & Responsibilities

Equipment Repair & Rebuilding

  • Disassemble various mechanical components and vacuum pumps for customer-submitted repairs.

  • Meticulously clean parts and components in preparation for evaluation and service.

  • Perform troubleshooting and evaluation to determine the root cause of component failures.

  • Reassemble units with precision, ensuring all parts fit according to strict specifications.

  • Rebuild inventory units from our shelf stock to prepare them for customer sales.

Testing & Electrical Tasks (Training Provided)

  • Learn to safely and accurately configure and wire single-phase and three-phase motors for testing (we will train you thoroughly on our safety protocols).

  • Test reassembled units to ensure their operational performance meets quality standards.

Shop Safety & Operations

  • Maintain a clean, organized, and safe personal work area at all times.

  • Follow strict safe work practices; utilize safety equipment such as protective masks, eye shields, and ear guards.

  • Maintain a high sense of urgency regarding job completion to meet customer expectations.

Education, Training & Experience

  • Education: High School Diploma or GED equivalent is required.

  • Experience Level: 3 to 5+ years of hands-on experience involving mechanical repair, pump/compressor service, or technical troubleshooting.

  • Target Backgrounds:

    • Vacuum pump repair, service, and maintenance

    • Air compressor service, small engine repair, or industrial pump maintenance

    • Facility, plant, or industrial machinery maintenance involving rotating equipment
