Job description

Select how often (in days) to receive an alert:

The purpose of this position is to test and determine if the parts that will be used in the rebuild process meet HEPI standards as defined in work order and ISO process instructions.

ESSENTIAL FUNCTIONS AND RESPONSIBILITIES:

• Maintain safe, secure, and healthy wet brake environment by adhering to organization standards and policies, and to legal regulations; alerting others regarding potential concerns
• Move parts by operating overhead cranes, scissor lifts, carts, and dollies
