Mechanical Repair Technician in Indian Trail, North Carolina at TAG Aero LLC

We’re looking for a hands-on Technician who enjoys fixing things, figuring out how mechanical systems work, and doing detailed repair work the right way.

This role is a strong fit for someone who is naturally mechanical — the type of person who can remove broken bolts, clean up damaged threads, fix tools, use shop equipment, and learn new repair techniques quickly. Backgrounds in automotive repair, machining, fabrication, maintenance, equipment repair, welding/brazing, or similar hands-on work are highly relevant.

We value relevant hands-on experience over exact industry background — especially if you are mechanically inclined, comfortable in a shop environment, and quick to learn technical repair work.

What You’ll Do

• Perform hands-on repair, overhaul, cleaning, testing, and mechanical work on components
• Troubleshoot mechanical issues and help identify practical repair solutions
• Use hand tools, power tools, shop equipment, fabrication tools, and testing equipment
• Inspect parts, hardware, threads, fittings, housings, and assemblies for wear, damage, or repair needs
• Support detailed repair tasks such as removing damaged fasteners, repairing threads, fitting parts, repairing tools/equipment, and preparing components for reassembly
• Learn and perform specialized processes such as brazing, pressure testing, fixture setup, mechanical assembly, and other repair techniques
• Follow work instructions, technical drawings, manuals, and repair procedures
• Accurately document work performed in line with quality and regulatory requirements

What We’re Looking For

• Strong mechanical interest, mechanical understanding, and hands-on problem-solving ability
• Comfortable using hand tools, shop equipment, fabrication tools, and mechanical repair equipment
• Ability to work with precision, patience, and attention to detail
• Willingness to learn new repair processes, ask good questions, and build technical skill over time
• Reliable, coachable, and able to follow instructions
• Able to work well in a team environment while also being able to independently own assigned tasks or projects
• Experience in automotive repair, machining, fabrication, maintenance, equipment repair, welding/brazing, or similar hands-on fields

Preferred, But Not Required

• Experience removing broken bolts, repairing threads, fixing damaged parts, or repairing tools/equipment
• Familiarity with brazing, soldering, pressure testing, mechanical assembly, or component repair
• Background in machining, fabrication, aviation, manufacturing, mechanical repair, equipment maintenance, overhaul, or similar hands-on repair environments
