Basic understanding of motor components and electrical theory

Can read schematics and follow technical instructions

Experience with measuring tools (calipers, micrometers, dial indicators)

Willing to learn, work hard, and take pride in your craft

Team player who shows up ready to work

Physical Work

This is a shop job. You’ll be:

Lifting up to 50 lbs regularly
