Alacriant, Inc.
Job Summary
The Mechanical Assembler is responsible for assembling precision-fabricated metal components, subassemblies, and mechanical systems according to engineering drawings, specifications, and work instructions. This role requires hands‑on mechanical aptitude, strong attention to detail, and the ability to work efficiently in a fast‑paced contract manufacturing environment where product mix, volume, and customer requirements vary.
Assembly & Fabrication
Assemble metal parts, hardware, and mechanical components using hand tools, power tools, and production equipment.
Perform fitting, alignment, drilling, tapping, deburring, riveting, and fastener installation per requirements.
Interpret mechanical drawings, blueprints, BOMs, and assembly work instructions with accuracy.
Conduct basic fabrication tasks such as cutting, grinding, filing, and minor adjustments to ensure proper fit.
Operate machines and equipment commonly used in metal assembly (e.g., pneumatic tools, torque tools, presses, drills).
Quality & Inspection
Inspect incoming fabricated components for defects, dimensional accuracy, and adherence to specifications.
Verify assemblies meet tolerances and quality standards using calipers, micrometers, gauges, and other measuring tools.
Document inspection results and report non‑conformances through established quality procedures.
Ensure all assemblies meet customer, engineering, and industry standards.
Production Support
Follow standard operating procedures (SOPs), job travelers, and production schedules.
Collaborate with engineering, welding, machining, and fabrication teams to resolve build issues.
Assist in continuous improvement initiatives such as 5S, waste reduction, and process optimization.
Safety & Work Environment
Maintain a clean and organized workstation following 5S and safety guidelines.
Adhere to all company safety policies, PPE requirements, and OSHA standards.
Handle materials safely, including lifting, rigging, and use of hoists when applicable.
Minimum Qualifications Required
1–3 years of mechanical assembly experience, preferably in metal fabrication or manufacturing.
Ability to interpret blueprints, schematics, and mechanical drawings.
Strong proficiency with hand tools, power tools, and measuring instruments.
Basic mechanical aptitude and troubleshooting skills.
Ability to lift 50 lbs. and stand for extended periods.
Strong attention to detail and quality.
Preferred
Experience in a contract manufacturing environment or job-shop style production.
Familiarity with lean manufacturing, 5S, and continuous improvement practices.
Experience assembling welded or CNC-machined metal components.
Basic knowledge of hydraulics, pneumatics, or electrical components is a plus.
Physical Demands Manufacturing floor environment with exposure to noise, machinery, and metal‑fabrication processes.
Requires use of PPE including safety glasses, gloves, and hearing protection.
Work may include overtime or modified shifts based on customer demand.
Work Environment The work environment characteristics described here are representative of those an employee encounters while performing the essential functions of this job. Reasonable accommodation may be made to enable individuals with disabilities to perform the essential functions. While performing the duty of this job, the employee is occasionally exposed to moving mechanical parts; high, precarious places; fumes or airborne particles; toxic or caustic chemicals; outside weather conditions; extreme cold and risk of electrical shock. The noise level in the work environment is usually moderate.
