About The Position

Since 1833, Cooper Machinery Services has been the OEM behind legendary engines and compressors — Cooper-Bessemer™, Ajax™, Superior™, and more — supporting a global installed base of over 22,000 units. Every one of those units starts on a shop floor like ours, in the hands of mechanics who know that precision isn't optional. As a Mechanic II at our Houston Machine Shop, you'll clean, inspect, and repair natural gas engine and compressor components — disassembling, reassembling, testing, and finishing moderate to highly complex equipment with the precision the job demands. This role is a great fit for a mechanic who's comfortable with manual, pneumatic, and hydraulic tools, reads a detailed print without a second thought, and knows their way around a micrometer, dial caliper, and dial indicator.
