Torque Jobs in Indiana (NOW HIRING)

What You'll Do:

The Assembler - Specialty will be working on a team while assembling parts on an axle assembly line, in a fast-paced environment. We are seeking a mechanically skilled Assembler to build, test, and support medium duty Dex-Air suspension assemblies on a new dedicated line. This role requires more technical and mechanical aptitude than a standard assembler — candidates should be able to set up/operate assembly presses and torque/rotation/compression equipment, interpret engineering work instructions/prints, perform first-article and in-process inspections, and support equipment changeovers and basic troubleshooting.

More specifically, this position will be responsible for activities including but not limited to the following:

• Assemble Dex-Air and related suspension components to engineering prints, standard work, and torque/fastening specifications.
• Operate and set up assembly equipment that provides controlled lifting, rotation, torque and compression (including bushing presses and related fixtures).
• Use calibrated torque tools, press equipment, pneumatic tools, and hand tools safely and accurately.
• Perform in-process inspection and final quality checks (dimensions, torque verification, visual inspections); document results per work instructions.
• Read and interpret mechanical drawings, assembly diagrams, process sheets, and torque/assembly specifications.
• Perform routine machine/fixture changeovers and set-up tasks for medium-duty assemblies.
• Support line start-up activities — initial builds, first articles, and ramp-up support — and provide feedback to engineering and process owners.
• Participate in equipment preventative maintenance and basic troubleshooting (identify and escalate mechanical or process issues).
• Follow safety procedures and safe material handling practices; use lifting aids, hoists, and jigs as required.
• Maintain accurate production and quality records (WIP, inspection, nonconformance reports).
• Work collaboratively with supervisors, engineering, and quality teams to meet throughput, quality and safety objectives.
• Regularly required to stand, walk, reach, bend, and use hands/fingers for manual assembly.
• Frequent lifting/handling of medium-weight components; must be able to safely use lifting equipment, hoists and jigs

Work Environment: Industrial/Manufacturing plant environment. Willingness to work production shifts and overtime as business conditions change.

What We're Looking For:

• High school diploma or general education degree (GED) is required.
• 2 Years’ Experience in a manufacturing environment related experience and/or training; or equivalent combination of education and experience.
• Mechanical aptitude and comfort working with medium-duty mechanical assemblies.
• Hands-on experience operating presses, torque tools, pneumatic tools and material handling
• equipment; experience with bushing presses or similar preferred.
• Ability to read and interpret mechanical drawings and written work instructions.
• Demonstrated ability to torque to specification and perform calibrated torque checks.
• Experience performing in-process and final inspections (use of calipers, gauges, go/no-go, visual checks).
• Strong attention to detail and ability to document inspection/assembly data accurately.
• Able to work in a production environment with a focus on safety, quality and throughput.
• Good communication skills and ability to work on cross-functional teams during start-up and ramp-up.
• Willingness to participate in required training and certifications (e.g., press operation,
• hoist/crane or powered industrial truck training as applicable).

Preferred Knowledge/Skills:

• Prior suspension, axle, or heavy-duty mechanical assembly experience (RV or medium-duty
• vehicle suspension systems a plus).
• Experience with line start-up and new product introduction / launch support.
• Ability to perform basic mechanical troubleshooting and minor equipment adjustments.
• Vocational/technical training or equivalent hands-on experience.
• Reliable, repeatable assembly to print and torque specifications meeting quality targets.
• Safe operation of presses, torque devices and lifting/rotation equipment.
• Timely identification and escalation of assembly or equipment issues and productive
• collaboration with engineering and quality to resolve them.
• Contribute to a smooth line start-up and ramp to meet Dex-Air medium-duty launch targets
