Industrial Pump Rebuild Technician; Shop

Description

We're seeking an experienced Pump Mechanic for our Loveland service center. This role is approximately 70% shop-based and focused on hands‑on tear‑down, rebuild, and testing of industrial pumps and rotating equipment - not general maintenance. Occasional field work (typically < 30%) includes troubleshooting, alignments, and installing or pulling equipment.

Fischer Process Industries, founded in 1957, is a distributor and service provider of pumps and fluid process equipment, with locations in Loveland/Cincinnati, Indianapolis, and Owensboro, KY. Fischer became part of Tencarva in 2022.

Tencarva is a distributor, engineering and design partner, and OEM‑authorized repair network within the process equipment/flow control market. With 38 locations across 17 states, Tencarva & Fischer provide end‑to‑end, whole‑system solutions for over 18,000 active customers across many verticals, including industrial, municipal water/wastewater, power generation, oil/gas, mining/aggregates, and automotive. Our service offerings include system analysis and design, applications engineering, custom fabrication of equipment packages, automation and controls, equipment remanufacturing, and thermal hard coatings.

This is a rebuild‑focused position - not a production maintenance role. You will disassemble, inspect, diagnose, rebuild, and test a variety of industrial pumps and rotating equipment to OEM standards.

• Self‑priming centrifugal pumps
• Mag drive pumps
• Vertical turbine pumps
• Air‑operated diaphragm pumps

Please note: This is a hands‑on industrial pump repair and rebuild role within an OEM‑authorized service center - not a general maintenance technician position.

• Rebuild pumps and rotating equipment to OEM standards
• Replace bearings, seals, shafts, impellers, and wear components
• Perform laser alignment
• Assist with field troubleshooting, equipment removal, installation, and start‑up
• Maintain a clean, organized, and safety‑focused shop environment
• Coordinate with service & sales leadership on job timelines and parts requirements.

• Day shift, Monday–Friday schedule; occasional evenings or weekends only for customer emergencies.
• Long‑term company stability - Tencarva (founded in 1978) has never had a layoff and does not manage downturns by cutting people
• Stable, steady workload - not seasonal or project‑based
• Family‑oriented culture that understands/respects life outside of work. Flexible schedule if family needs arise.
• Primarily shop‑based work
• Big‑company resources with a small shop feel
• Real opportunity to grow into increased responsibility over time

We take pride in doing quality work and standing behind our repairs/remans. While we move with urgency for our customers, we do not run a high‑pressure production shop or sacrifice quality for speed. Our expectations of our mechanics are high, but realistic and sustainable.

• Paid Time Off, including 10 holidays
• Health Insurance, including medical, dental, vision, disability, and life
• 401(k) with Profit Sharing
• Employee Assistance Program

• 2+ years of hands‑on industrial pump repair, rebuild, or rotating equipment service experience required (5+ years is preferred)
