Mechanical Technician

Nikkiso Cryogenic Services is seeking a highly skilled Mechanical Technician to perform inspection, maintenance, repair, and precision testing of advanced turbo and cryogenic rotating equipment.

This is not a general mechanic role. This is precision rotating equipment work supporting critical global energy, industrial gas, and marine applications. The equipment you service directly impacts mission-critical operations around the world.

If you are a hands-on technician who takes pride in tight tolerances, precision measurements, and solving complex mechanical challenges — this role offers the opportunity to work on industry-leading cryogenic pumps and turbo expanders in a high-performance, team-oriented environment.

• Disassemble, inspect, repair, and reassemble cryogenic pumps, turbo expanders, and related rotating systems.
• Perform detailed mechanical measurements and diagnostics using precision instruments.
• Evaluate component condition and determine part usability and disposition.
• Execute repairs in accordance with engineering drawings, specifications, and quality standards.
• Perform precision balancing of rotating assemblies.

• Complete build-up sheets with accurate “as-left” close tolerance measurements.
• Perform dimensional inspections using micrometers, calipers, dial indicators, torque tools, and specialty equipment.
• Ensure all work meets Nikkiso quality, safety, and technical standards.
• Complete detailed repair documentation, inspection reports, and work orders.
• Support continuous improvement initiatives within workshop processes.

• Partner with engineers and project managers to execute repair scopes and meet delivery schedules.
• Coordinate with supply chain teams for parts and materials.
• Support inventory management of tools, consumables, and replacement components.

• Maintain a clean, organized, and safe workshop environment.
• Follow all safety procedures, policies, and PPE requirements.
• Participate in ongoing safety and technical training programs.
• Model safety accountability and adherence to company standards.

• 3-5 years of hands-on experience in a mechanical workshop, repair, maintenance, or manufacturing environment.
• Strong experience working with rotating equipment such as pumps, turbomachinery, compressors, or similar precision systems.
• Experience with precision balancing equipment.
• Proven ability to interpret engineering drawings, schematics, and mechanical specifications.
• Advanced precision measurement skills.

• Strong mechanical aptitude and troubleshooting ability.
• High attention to detail with close-tolerance assemblies.
• Ability to work independently and collaboratively in a fast-paced environment.
• Strong documentation and communication skills.
• Commitment to quality, safety, and continuous improvement.

• Experience with cryogenic systems or high-speed rotating equipment.
• Background supporting aftermarket repair or overhaul operations.
• Familiarity with ERP systems and work order documentation.

• Industrial workshop setting with exposure to machinery and mechanical tools.
• Standing for extended periods and performing hands-on mechanical tasks.
• Ability to lift and move components within defined safety limits.
• Overtime or flexible scheduling may be required based on operational needs.
