The Mechanical Assembler is responsible for assembling, installing, modifying, and integrating mechanical components and systems within custom manufacturing projects. This position requires hands-on mechanical assembly experience, strong mechanical aptitude, and the ability to work independently with or without detailed blueprints or instructions. The ideal candidate thrives on the challenge of figuring things out, sees beyond the immediate task to understand how individual components contribute to the finished product, and takes pride in turning complex projects into functional, high-quality equipment. Success in this role requires creativity, resourcefulness, initiative, and sound judgment to independently resolve assembly challenges while recognizing when more complex technical issues, design concerns, or safety-related matters require escalation to the Lead or Production Manager.

• Strong mechanical aptitude and understanding of how mechanical components and systems work together.
• Working knowledge of mechanical components, including fasteners, bearings, shafts, couplings, brackets, structural assemblies, and related equipment.
• Understanding of basic mechanical principles, including alignment, fitment, movement, load distribution, and equipment functionality.
• Ability to read and interpret mechanical drawings, blueprints, diagrams, and assembly instructions while also working effectively when detailed documentation is limited.
• Proficient in using hand tools, power tools, torque tools, measuring devices, and equipment required for mechanical assembly and installation.
• Ability to accurately measure, align, position, fit, and secure mechanical components according to established specifications.
• Knowledge of proper fastening techniques, torque requirements, mechanical clearances, and assembly tolerances.
• Strong problem-solving and critical thinking skills with the ability to develop practical solutions to nonstandard assembly challenges.
• Ability to visualize the finished product and understand how individual components contribute to overall equipment functionality.
• Resourcefulness, creativity, and adaptability when faced with unexpected challenges or changing project requirements.
• Ability to independently assess assembly challenges, evaluate potential solutions, and make practical adjustments within established technical specifications and safety guidelines.
• Sound judgment in recognizing the limits of individual technical expertise and determining when additional guidance, approval, or escalation is necessary.
• Strong attention to detail and commitment to quality workmanship, proper fitment, and reliable equipment performance.
• Effective communication skills and willingness to collaborate with others to achieve project goals.
• Ability to balance independent thinking and initiative with established engineering specifications, safety requirements, and quality standards.

• High School Diploma, GED, or equivalent combination of education and experience preferred.
• Previous hands-on mechanical assembly and installation experience required, preferably in custom manufacturing, industrial equipment, oilfield equipment, or a related environment.
• Strong mechanical aptitude and experience working with mechanical components, tools, and equipment required.
• Demonstrated ability to independently troubleshoot and resolve mechanical assembly challenges, adapt to changing project requirements, and recognize when more complex technical issues require assistance or escalation.
• Experience working on custom equipment builds, mechanical modifications, or equipment rework preferred.
• Ability to interpret mechanical drawings and blueprints and apply practical knowledge when detailed instructions are limited.
• Vocational or technical training in mechanical systems, industrial mechanics, equipment assembly, or a related field preferred but not required.
• Self-motivated, resourceful, and comfortable taking initiative while recognizing the limits of assigned responsibilities.
• Ability to see the bigger picture, anticipate potential challenges, and contribute ideas that improve the finished product.
• Strong organizational skills with the ability to manage assigned tasks, adjust priorities, and meet project deadlines.
• Professionalism, flexibility, creativity, and a team-oriented approach.
• Regular and reliable attendance.
• Flexibility to work overtime and weekends as business needs require.
• Successful completion of applicable pre-employment screening requirements.
• Ability to follow all company safety policies, procedures, and appropriate dress code requirements.

• Assemble, install, modify, and integrate mechanical components and systems for custom manufacturing projects, including structural components, frames, brackets, mounting assemblies, moving parts, and related equipment.
• Read and interpret mechanical drawings, blueprints, bills of material, and work instructions when available, while applying practical knowledge and experience when detailed instructions are limited.
• Evaluate assigned project requirements and determine effective approaches to mechanical assembly, component positioning, fitment, alignment, and installation.
• Independently evaluate and resolve routine to moderately complex assembly challenges, including component fitment, alignment, installation sequencing, and minor rework, while maintaining established specifications and safety standards.
• Apply creativity, mechanical knowledge, and practical problem-solving skills to adapt assembly methods and overcome unexpected project challenges without compromising equipment functionality, quality, or safety.
• Measure, position, align, fit, fasten, and secure mechanical components using appropriate tools, equipment, and established assembly techniques.
• Perform mechanical modifications, adjustments, and rework within the scope of the position to accommodate project requirements and resolve assembly issues.
• Apply strong mechanical aptitude to understand how individual components, moving parts, and mechanical systems interact within the finished product.
• Recognize and promptly escalate complex mechanical issues, suspected design errors, structural concerns, component compatibility issues, and safety-critical modifications to the Lead or Production Manager for evaluation and resolution.
• Collaborate with Leads, Production Management, Engineering, and other team members to resolve project challenges and ensure successful completion.
• Perform basic mechanical inspections, measurements, alignment checks, and authorized functional testing to verify proper assembly, fitment, and functionality.
• Identify and communicate design discrepancies, material concerns, potential safety issues, and opportunities for improvement.
• Demonstrate initiative and accountability in completing assigned work accurately, efficiently, and with minimal supervision.
• Perform all tasks in accordance with established safety, quality, and efficiency standards.
• Provide training and assistance to other employees as assigned.
• Perform other related duties as required.
