We’re Not Looking for Average.
We’re building a team of high-level machinists and engine builders who take pride in precision, efficiency, and doing the job right the first time.
If you’re the type who measures twice, cuts once, and refuses to let anything leave the shop unless it’s perfect — keep reading.
If not, this isn’t for you.


What You’ll Be Doing
You’ll own jobs from start to finish — not just turn wrenches.
  •  Talk directly with customers — explain problems, solutions, and timelines like a pro 
  •  Write and manage repair orders with accuracy and accountability 
  •  Source and order the right parts (no guesswork, no excuses) 
  •  Inspect, measure, and diagnose engine components with precision 
Machining & Building:
  •  Bore, hone, and deck blocks 
  •  Install cylinder sleeves 
  •  Rebuild cylinder heads (valves, guides, seats) 
  •  Grind crankshafts 
  •  Resurface heads, flywheels, drums, and rotors 
  •  Full tear-down and assembly of gas and diesel engines 
  •  Hold tight tolerances and back up your work with confidence 
What We Expect
  •  You don’t cut corners — ever 
  •  You know your way around micrometers, bore gauges, and machining equipment 
  •  You can work independently without being babysat 
  •  You show up on time, ready to go
  •  You take ownership of your work — wins and mistakes 
  •  You communicate clearly with both customers and your team 
What Makes You a Fit
  •  Proven experience in engine machining and rebuilding 
  •  Strong mechanical instincts and problem-solving ability 
  •  Pride in craftsmanship — your work speaks for itself 
  •  You move with urgency but never sacrifice quality 
What You Get
  • Top-tier pay for top-tier performance 
  •  A shop that values skill, not shortcuts 
  •  Consistent, year-round work 
  •  A team that pulls its weight — no dead weight allowed 
  •  Opportunity to grow with a serious operation 
Bottom Line
We’re not a training ground.
 We’re not a place to “get by.”
We’re a shop for people who want to be the best at what they do.
If that’s you — apply.
