About this role
NOW HIRING: INDUSTRIAL GEARBOX TECHNICIAN
Delta Steel Technologies is looking for an experienced Industrial Gearbox Technician to join our repair and assembly team.
We need a hands-on mechanical technician who can tear down, inspect, diagnose, repair, measure, and rebuild industrial gearboxes and rotating equipment.
This is NOT a parts-changing job. We need someone who can determine why a gearbox failed, what needs to be repaired or replaced, and how to rebuild it correctly.
Responsibilities
- Disassemble, inspect, repair, and rebuild industrial gearboxes.
- Identify bearing, gear, shaft, seal, lubrication, alignment, and overheating issues.
- Perform precision measurements using micrometers, calipers, bore gauges, dial indicators, and other tools.
- Check backlash, endplay, shaft runout, fits, and gear contact patterns.
- Document inspection findings and repair recommendations.
- Work with machinists, welders, QC, and assembly personnel.
Qualifications
- Hands-on experience repairing industrial gearboxes, rotating equipment, or heavy mechanical assemblies.
- Strong knowledge of gears, bearings, shafts, seals, fits, lubrication, and alignment.
- Ability to safely work with heavy components, cranes, lifting equipment, and shop tools.
- Dependable, safety-minded, and able to work independently.
Steel mill or heavy industrial experience is a strong plus.
Pay & Schedule
$30–$40/hour , based on experience
Full-Time | Day Shift | Overtime as Needed
Experience with large reducers, mill drives, roll drives, crane gearboxes, precision measurement, rigging, machining, or welding is a plus.
If you know how to tear down a gearbox, figure out what went wrong, and rebuild it right, we want to talk to you.
