Compressor Technician

AtmosZero

Loveland, CO • On-site

$38 - $46/hr

Full-time

Re-posted 12 days ago

Job description

Come be a part of an exciting clean energy technology startup in beautiful Loveland, CO. You will join an ambitious, talented group decarbonizing the industrial heat sector. AtmosZero is seeking a Compressor Technician to build the precision compressors at the heart of our Boiler 2.0 system. This is hands-on mechanical assembly work first, then as we scale distribution, the right person will have the opportunity to grow into building and leading a small team of technicians, setting the assembly standards and training the people who follow. We would be excited to find someone interested in that path.
Reports to: Senior Director of Plant Operations
Location: Onsite full time in Loveland, CO (5 days/week)
In this role, you will be responsible for:
  • Assemble precision compressor units and subassemblies from aerospace-grade machined parts, working to engineering drawings, tolerances, and specifications.
  • Read and interpret engineering drawings, geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T), schematics, and bills of materials; assemble to torque, fit, and tolerance specs using calibrated hand and power tools.
  • Write, refine, and maintain assembly SOPs and work instructions. Work from partial or incomplete inputs and determine what needs to be created versus updated.
  • Perform in-process and final quality checks, including leak and pressure testing of assembled units. Record results and maintain build records, inspection sign-offs, and part traceability.
  • Support incoming inspection of machined parts and partner with supply chain on supplier quality and nonconforming material.
  • Partner directly with design engineers and the R&D team on assembly feedback, design-for-assembly, and first-article builds.
  • Maintain a clean, organized workspace with foreign object debris (FOD) control, and follow all safety and PPE protocols.
  • Contribute to continuous improvement of assembly processes as production scales.
  • Help establish the assembly standards, documentation, and training that a growing technician team will work from.

Required Qualifications
  • Demonstrated precision mechanical assembly experience (compressors, pumps, engines, turbomachinery, aerospace, medical device, or comparable high-tolerance work).
  • Ability to read and work from engineering drawings, GD&T, schematics, and bills of materials.
  • Proficiency assembling to torque, tolerance, and fit specifications with calibrated hand and power tools.
  • Experience writing or substantially improving assembly SOPs or work instructions.
  • Comfort operating from partial documentation and deciding what to build versus what to update.
  • Experience working within a documented quality process (inspection records, part traceability, nonconformance handling) in a high-reliability or regulated environment.
  • Strong attention to detail, manual dexterity, and pride in workmanship.
  • Clear written and verbal communication to interface with design engineers and technical experts.
  • Authorization to work in the U.S.

Technical
  • Precision measurement and inspection: calipers, micrometers, bore gauges, dial indicators; measuring runout, concentricity, and clearances to spec.
  • Rotating-assembly work: bearing and seal installation, shaft alignment, and rotor balancing or runout verification.
  • Mechanical fits and joining: press, shrink, and slip fits; threaded and fastened joints to torque spec; brazing or soldering as applicable.
  • Cleanliness and contamination control for close-clearance parts, including FOD prevention.
  • Leak, pressure, and vacuum or evacuation procedures, with the test documentation that goes with them.
  • Familiarity with rotating equipment or sealed (hermetic / semi-hermetic) compressor assemblies.

Preferred Qualifications
  • EPA 608 or other refrigerant handling certification.
  • Experience in low-volume or prototype-to-production (NPI) manufacturing environments.
  • Experience contributing to design-for-manufacturability or design-for-assembly.
  • Lean, 5S, or continuous improvement exposure.
  • Trade certification, associate degree, or equivalent demonstrated hands-on experience.
  • Basic experience with Solidworks E Drawings/CAD
  • Experience training and developing technicians or building out a small assembly team, and interest in growing into that as the function scales.

Physical Requirements
  • Stand, bend, reach, and perform detailed hand work for extended periods.
  • Lift and carry up to 25 lbs regularly, and up to 40 lbs occasionally with assistance or lifting aids.
  • Fine motor dexterity and close-vision work with small components and hand tools.
  • Use required PPE and work safely in a shop and light-manufacturing environment.

The pay range for this role is:
38 - 46 USD per hour (Colorado)
