Position Summary

We’re hiring a hands-on Engine Builder for our New Hudson facility. This role tears down, inspects, machines, and assembles internal combustion engines—then validates performance through measurement, testing, and tuning support. You’ll work directly with engines and vehicles, collaborating with engineers and technicians to deliver dependable stock, performance, and custom builds.

Key Responsibilities

+ Disassemble engines; inspect for wear, damage, and defects, documenting findings.

+ Perform or support machining operations (boring, honing, decking, valve/seat work, resurfacing).

+ Measure and blueprint components (bore, taper, deck height, piston-to-wall, ring gap, bearing clearances).

+ Select components (pistons, rods, bearings, camshafts, gaskets, fasteners) to match build goals and duty cycle.

+ Precisely assemble short blocks and long blocks per OEM specs or custom performance targets.

+ Set timing, verify oiling, prime systems, and perform pre-start checks.

+ Support testing and tuning (break‑in procedures, leakdown/compression, data collection) and address issues.

+ Maintain tools, calibration, cleanliness, and build records for traceability and quality.

+ Follow all safety procedures while working around vehicles, lifts, hoists, chemicals, and rotating machinery.

Qualifications

+ Proven, hands-on engine teardown and assembly experience in automotive or performance environments.

+ Strong knowledge of internal combustion fundamentals and failure modes.

+ Proficient with precision tools: micrometers, bore gauges, dial indicators, torque/angle tools, plastigage.

+ Ability to read specs, drawings, and service information; complete build sheets accurately.

+ Organized, detail‑oriented, and quality‑driven; able to work independently and in a team.

+ Valid driver’s license; ability to safely move vehicles and lift up to 50 lbs as needed.

Preferred Skills

+ Performance/racing engine experience (NA, boosted, E85, flex, towing/heavy‑duty).

+ Cylinder head work (valve/seat cutting, spring setup), balancing, and ring filing.

+ Familiarity with dyno operations, data acquisition, and break‑in/tuning workflows.

+ ASE certifications, trade school, or equivalent technical training.

+ Basic welding/fabrication or CNC/manual machining exposure a plus.

What We Offer

+ Competitive compensation with opportunities for overtime and advancement.

+ Growth and training in a fast‑paced, innovative environment.

+ Modern equipment, clean workspaces, and diverse projects (OEM, motorsports, specialty).

+ Benefits package and paid time off/holidays.
