Location: Parker, CO
Schedule: Full-Time | On-Site
Compensation: $23 to $25 per hour + overtime opportunity
About the Opportunity
We are expanding our production team at our facility in Parker, CO.
This is not a typical repair shop role.
You will be part of a structured remanufacturing operation, where diesel engines are completely disassembled, inspected, rebuilt, and tested to meet or exceed OEM specifications. The work combines hands-on mechanical skill with precision assembly in a production environment.
If you enjoy building something the right way and seeing a finished product leave better than new, this is your lane.
What You’ll Do
- Assemble heavy-duty diesel engines, including pistons, crankshafts, fuel systems, turbochargers, and emissions components
- Follow detailed blueprints, work instructions, and torque specifications
- Perform precision fitting, alignment, and measurement of components
- Conduct in-process inspections to ensure quality and compliance with OEM and EPA standards
- Perform testing such as leak checks, pressure testing, and initial run-in procedures
- Troubleshoot build issues and work with quality and engineering teams to resolve them
- Document builds, serial numbers, and test results in digital systems
- Maintain a clean, safe, and organized workstation aligned with 5S practices
- Contribute to continuous improvement and lean manufacturing initiatives
What Good Looks Like
- 2 to 3+ years of hands-on engine assembly experience
- Diesel engine experience strongly preferred, especially heavy-duty or Class 8
- Ability to read and follow technical drawings and assembly instructions
- Experience using torque wrenches, hoists, presses, and diagnostic tools
- Comfortable working in a production or manufacturing environment
- Strong attention to detail and pride in quality workmanship
What Will Separate You
- Experience rebuilding engines, not just replacing parts
- Familiarity with fuel systems, emissions systems, or turbochargers
- Exposure to dyno testing or advanced diagnostics
- Experience in high-volume or process-driven environments
Physical & Work Environment
- Ability to stand for extended periods
- Lift up to 70 lbs
- Work in an industrial environment with noise and moving equipment
- Willingness to work overtime or flexible shifts as needed
Compensation & Benefits
- Hourly rate: $23 to $25
- Overtime opportunities available
- Benefits begin the first of the month following 30 days
Highlights include:
- Medical plans through Cigna PPO network (multiple plan options including HSA eligible)
- 401k with 100% company match up to 6%
- Health Savings Account with up to $1,000 in annual wellness incentives
