Overview
We're hiring Pump / Motor Mechanics for our precision scientific equipment shop in Oak Ridge, TN.
Customers ship us advanced scientific equipment like vacuum pumps, blowers, motors, and cryocooler units, and and you tear it down, rebuild it, and restore it to tight tolerances. You'll also quote repairs, order parts, and repair equipment at customer facilities.
