Conveyors don't splice themselves. Bearings don't change themselves. Slurry pumps definitely don't rebuild themselves. When a sand plant runs clean for a full shift, it's because somebody with a torch, a wrench, and a good ear made it happen — and that somebody is who we're hiring.

You'll build new sand plants from the ground up, then keep them alive: welding and fabricating, chasing down mechanical failures, swapping gearboxes and motors, fusing poly pipe, splicing belt, and rebuilding pumps. Feed systems, scrubbers, shakers, classifiers, crushers, hydraulics, air, water, electrical, structural — if it moves sand, it's yours to keep moving.

What You'll Do

• Build it: construct and assemble new sand plants, then support maintenance and repair straight through commissioning.
• Fix it: welding, mechanical repairs, electrical work, plumbing, hydraulic repairs, boiler maintenance, and air system servicing.
• Keep material flowing: maintain and repair feed, conveying, scrubber, shaker, and classifying systems.
• Own the heavy stuff: discharge hoppers, weigh systems, central mixers, load-carrying and drive systems, and structural systems.
• Cover the utilities: water, air, and electrical systems, crushers, hydraulics, and recycling systems.
• Turn wrenches that matter: bearing, gearbox, and motor changes, plus troubleshooting mechanical failures before they become downtime.
• Splice belt: Flexco and Super Screw conveyor belt repairs.
• Handle the messy jobs: slurry pump swaps and rebuilds, and poly pipe fusing.
• Fabricate: welding and custom fab work to keep the plant running and improving.
• Inspect and document: follow the Company's inspection schedule and turn in detailed inspection and maintenance reports.
• Work clean and safe: orderly work areas, company safety policies, and full compliance with federal and state mining regulations.
