Assembly Technician

The very technologies that are creating a more sustainable future for us — electric vehicles, semiconductors, and solar panels — are built on a foundation of metals extracted from the earth at great financial and environmental cost. At ElectraMet®, our mission is to build a circular economy that reduces our dependence on extracting these metals from the ground. We do this by delivering a novel electrochemical technology that separates and recovers dissolved metals from process and wastewater streams.

We are looking for a highly motivated person to join our Lexington, KY team as a part-time/co-op Assembly Technician. The successful candidate(s) will have the ability to understand equipment construction, plumbing, and/or component wiring.

• Assembly of equipment.  Areas of focus could include plumbing, electrical and/or mechanical work based on approved drawings and bills-of-materials.
