Job Summary:
VVater is seeking a highly skilled Body Fabrication & Finishing Technician to fabricate, assemble, finish, and paint structural and aesthetic components for VVater's advanced mechanical and water-treatment systems. This role requires a combination of metal fabrication expertise, bodywork craftsmanship, and automotive-grade painting skills, ensuring every VVater product meets the highest standards of structural integrity, durability, and visual presentation.
The ideal candidate is a versatile, hands-on technician with a background in industrial fabrication, automotive bodywork, precision assembly, and high-quality paint/finish application. You must be comfortable working from engineering drawings, prototyping with R&D, and delivering flawless mechanical and visual finishes.
Duties and Responsibilities:
  • Fabrication & Assembly

    • • Fabricate and assemble metal bodies, housings, frames, enclosures, and custom components for VVater's mechanical and electrochemical systems.
    • Perform cutting, bending, forming, shaping, and welding operations (TIG/MIG; stainless steel, aluminum, carbon steel).
    • Fit, align, and assemble subassemblies with precision using engineering drawings, CAD models, and technical specs.
    • Conduct precision measurements using calipers, gauges, micrometers, and templates to ensure dimensional accuracy.
    Bodywork & Surface Preparation
    • Perform full-spectrum bodywork, including panel straightening, metal shaping, filler work, sanding, leveling, and surface correction.
    • Repair dents, weld marks, seams, and imperfections to achieve smooth, uniform surfaces suitable for high-end finishing.
    • Conduct finishing operations including grinding, smoothing, polishing, edge radiusing, and texture matching.
    Automotive-Grade Painting & Finishing
    • Apply primer, base coats, top coats, clear coats, and protective coatings using HVLP or high-transfer efficiency equipment.
    • Mix, match, and adjust paint materials to achieve color accuracy and consistent finish quality.
    • Perform wet sanding, buffing, polishing, and quality checks to produce automotive-level finishes on metal and composite surfaces.
    • Maintain a clean, dust-free paint environment and manage curing/drying processes.
    Prototype Support & R&D Collaboration
    • Support prototype development, iterative testing, and refinement of new VVater technologies.
    • Collaborate with engineering and CAD teams to validate manufacturability and propose design improvements.
    • Provide rapid fabrication and finish adjustments during laboratory and field testing cycles.
    Shop Operations & Safety
    • Maintain fabrication, painting, and finishing equipment (welders, brakes, grinders, paint guns, compressors).
    • Ensure compliance with safety standards related to welding, grinding, painting, ventilation, PPE, and chemical handling.
    • Maintain organized workspaces, proper consumable inventory, and documented workflow for production consistency.
    Other Duties
    • Assist with crating, assembly, packaging, and field installation when required.
    • Provide input on fabrication process improvements, tooling requirements, and layout optimization.
    • Perform all other duties as instructed by the company.
Skills and Qualifications:
    Technical Skills & Experience
    • 5+ years of experience in metal fabrication, bodywork, and/or automotive paint and finishing.
    * Extensive CNC Experience will be highly beneficial
    • Strong welding proficiency in TIG and MIG (stainless steel, aluminum, mild steel).
    • Proven ability in body filler application, panel straightening, shaping, sanding, and restoration techniques.
    • Proficiency in HVLP spray systems, multi-stage paint systems, primers, clear coats, industrial coatings, and curing methods.
    • Experience working with fabrication equipment, shears, brakes, rollers, sanders, grinders, saws, and CNC equipment.
    • Ability to read and interpret mechanical drawings, blueprints, and CAD-derived fabrication packets.
    Additional Desired Experience
    • Automotive body shop or custom fabrication background is highly preferred.
    • Experience with powder coating or industrial coating systems is a plus.
    • Familiarity with assembly of mechanical/electrical integrated components (industrial or automotive).
    • Prototyping and low-volume custom manufacturing experience.
    Attributes
    • Exceptional attention to detail and pride in producing show-quality workmanship.
    • Strong problem-solving skills and craftsmanship instincts.
    • Able to work independently or in a team environment.
    • High professionalism, reliability, and adherence to safety protocols.
