Our Senior Mechanical Production Lead will provide supervision and training as needed.

Here is what the role entails:

Supporting the production team to deliver mechanical systems for modular water treatment and lithium production plants.
Performing plumbing and pipefitting work primarily using CPVC and PVC piping.
Reading and interpreting construction drawings and Process and Instrumentation Diagrams (P&IDs).
Maintaining strong housekeeping standards and a clean, organized workspace.
The work is indoors in a safe, clean production environment alongside a diverse team.
Regular hours are Monday to Friday, 6:30 AM to 3:00 PM, with opportunities for overtime and occasional travel to customer sites.

You will be a great fit if you have:

Registered as a 1st to 2nd year Plumbing or Pipefitting Apprentice.
Experience working with CPVC and PVC piping, with strong attention to detail. Much of the work is visible, and training will be provided.
Experience with mechanical mounting of components such as pumps, including precise alignment.
Experience using hand tools and power tools (all tools will be provided).
Excellent housekeeping skills and safe work practices.
Strong teamwork skills.
Excellent problem-solving skills and the ability to produce high-quality work.
Good attention to detail, organization, and time management skills.

Why join Saltworks?

At Saltworks, you'll collaborate with talented colleagues to solve complex, real-world problems – designing and delivering innovative water treatment and lithium refining systems for some of the world's most recognized companies. Every team member contributes meaningfully, from early-stage development through field deployment.

We offer:

Competitive compensation package, including medical, dental, vision, RRSP matching, life insurance, AD&D coverage, and an education allowance.
Culture built on safety, innovation, diversity, and continuous learning.
Collaborative, cross-functional team environment where every member contributes to project outcomes.
Regular social activities and company events.
