The posting

Overview

We're hiring Pump / Motor Mechanics for our precision scientific equipment shop in Oak Ridge, TN.

Customers ship us advanced scientific equipment like vacuum pumps, blowers, motors, and cryocooler units, and and you tear it down, rebuild it, and restore it to tight tolerances. You'll also quote repairs, order parts, and repair equipment at customer facilities.

It's varied mechanical work: shop equipment like air compressors, CNC mills, and lathes needs maintaining, and our small fleet of forklifts and box trucks needs servicing — diesel or engine mechanic experience pays off here.

Why Join Us

  • Work on everything: Pumps, blowers, motors, cryocoolers, machine tools, and trucks.
  • Annual bonuses: Paid every year on top of your base rate.

Compensation

  • $25–$27/hr base rate, depending on experience
  • Annual bonuses

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
