Turn your mechanical knack into heavy-duty production.

If you’re the type who naturally tears things down just to see how they work—and puts them back together better than before—this is your bench. We are recruiting Mechanical Assembly Technicians to fit, fasten, and calibrate industrial equipment for established manufacturing facilities in Brantford.

What You’ll Be Doing:

Interpret basic assembly schematics, blueprints, and standard operating procedures (SOPs).
Utilize pneumatic torque wrenches, drills, hand tools, and precision gauges to assemble sub-components and complete units.
Perform first-off and in-process quality audits to eliminate defects before final rollout.
Work collaboratively along continuous-flow production lines to hit daily cycle targets.

What You Bring:

Demonstrated dexterity and comfort using manual and powered hand tools.
Baseline understanding of mechanical tolerances, fasteners, and shop-floor safety.
Strong physical stamina: comfortable standing, lifting up to 40–50 lbs, and engaging in continuous movement.
High school diploma or equivalent technical training.

Advantages
Reliable Weekly Direct Deposit: Secure $19.00 – $21.00/hour deposited promptly every week.
Immediate Vacation Remittance: 4% vacation accrual paid out concurrent with every pay cycle.
Shift Versatility: Select from days, afternoons, or night shifts to suit your availability.
Income Growth via Overtime: Guaranteed full-time hours backed by recurring overtime potential.
Rapid Placement: Efficient intake and onboarding with prompt deployment dates.

Responsibilities
Build with the Right Tools: Assemble heavy-duty units using a full lineup of pneumatic gear, drivers, and hand tools.
Work from Blueprints: Read straightforward layouts, schematics, and work orders to guide every step of the build.
Catch Flaws Early: Inspect parts on the fly to guarantee proper fit, finish, and zero missing parts.
Stay Safe & Organized: Keep your work zone clean, efficient, and 100% compliant with plant safety rules.

Qualifications
Experience: 1+ years in assembly, machine fabrication, or industrial manufacturing environments.
Core Competencies: Proficient with pneumatic/power tools and comfortable executing step-by-step assembly schematics.
Physical Capability: Full-shift active mobility (standing/walking) and regular lifting capacity between 30 and 50 lbs.
Work Standards: Punctual, quality-focused, and dedicated to zero-incident safety protocols.
