Compressor Assembly Technician

Responsibilities

• Assemble precision compressor units and subassemblies from aerospace-grade machined parts according to engineering drawings and specifications.
• Interpret engineering drawings, GD&T, schematics, and bills of materials to ensure proper torque, fit, and tolerance.
• Write, refine, and maintain assembly SOPs and work instructions, often working from partial or incomplete inputs.
• Perform in-process and final quality checks, including leak and pressure testing, while maintaining detailed build records and part traceability.
• Partner with design engineers and R&D teams to provide feedback on design-for-assembly and first-article builds.
• Support incoming inspection of machined parts and collaborate with supply chain on supplier quality.
• Maintain a clean, organized workspace with strict foreign object debris (FOD) control and safety protocols.
• Help establish assembly standards and documentation to support a growing technician team.

Requirements

• Demonstrated precision mechanical assembly experience (e.g., compressors, pumps, engines, aerospace, or medical devices).
• Ability to read and work from engineering drawings, GD&T, schematics, and bills of materials.
• Proficiency with calibrated hand and power tools to meet torque and tolerance specifications.
• Experience writing or substantially improving assembly SOPs or work instructions.
• Experience working within a documented quality process involving inspection records and part traceability.
• Strong attention to detail, manual dexterity, and clear communication skills.
• Authorization to work in the U.S.

Preferred Qualifications

• EPA 608 or other refrigerant handling certification.
• Experience in low-volume or prototype-to-production (NPI) manufacturing environments.
• Experience contributing to design-for-manufacturability or design-for-assembly.
• Exposure to Lean, 5S, or continuous improvement methodologies.
• Experience training and developing technicians or building out assembly teams.
• Basic experience with Solidworks E Drawings/CAD.
