Senior Mechanical Assembler / Shop Technician – Precision Machinery

About Entoleter

Entoleter is a small but globally active manufacturer of industrial equipment. Our machines are used by customers across the U.S. and around the world. As a member of our shop team, your craftsmanship directly influences production schedules and customer satisfaction. We offer a clean, organized shop, a respectful culture with direct access to leadership, and stable day-shift hours.

Role Overview

We are looking for an experienced Mechanical Assembler / Shop Technician who can work independently to build, repair, and rebuild precision machinery. This is not an entry-level role; you will be trusted to interpret drawings, hold tight tolerances and solve problems with minimal oversight. On any given day, you might be assembling a new machine, troubleshooting a mechanical issue, or rebuilding a piece of equipment to extend its life.

Key Responsibilities

• Precision Assembly: Build machine components and subassemblies from blueprints and schematics. Hold tolerances to ±0.001″ where required and ensure each build meets our quality standards.
• Repair & Rebuild: Disassemble, repair and reassemble machines for maintenance, modification or retrofit projects. Troubleshoot mechanical issues and implement fixes.
• Manual Machining & Fabrication Support: Operate manual mills, and other shop equipment to modify and fit parts. Use grinders, drills, saws and pneumatic tools confidently.
• Quality Control: Inspect materials and finished components with calipers, micrometers and gauges. Verify that your own work meets specifications without the need for rework.
• Shop Contribution: Help move and rig heavy components safely. Keep your work area clean and organized, and contribute to a productive shop workflow.

MustHave Qualifications

• 3–5+ years of hands-on experience in mechanical assembly, machining or industrial equipment repair.
• Proven ability to read and interpret blueprints, diagrams and schematics without supervision.
• Demonstrated skill in holding tight tolerances (±0.001″) and using precision measuring tools.
• Comfortable operating manual shop equipment and a variety of hand and power tools (grinders, drills, saws, pneumatic tools).
• Able to lift heavy parts safely and work in an industrial environment.
• Strong mechanical aptitude, problem-solving ability and the discipline to work independently.

Nice to Have

• Experience with industrial machinery or rotating equipment.
• Familiarity with manual milling machines.
• Prior work rebuilding, retrofitting or custom-fabricating equipment.

Who Thrives Here

This role is ideal for someone who loves precision work, enjoys figuring out how things go together, and wants to take ownership of their projects. If you take pride in doing things right the first time, appreciate a stable work schedule and value a small-company culture where your work is visible, you will thrive at Entoleter.

What We Offer

• Hourly pay commensurate with experience (target range: $26–$30 per hour), plus overtime eligibility and annual bonus potential.
• Day-shift schedule with predictable hours.
• 401(k) with a Match after one year
• A clean, well-lit shop and a supportive team that operates with mutual respect and appreciation.

If you are a skilled mechanical assembler looking for a role where your craftsmanship directly impacts customers and production schedules, we encourage you to apply.
