Job Description:
Your Work Shapes the World at Caterpillar Inc.
When you join Caterpillar, you're joining a global team who cares not just about the work we do - but also about each other. We are the makers, problem solvers, and future world builders who are creating stronger, more sustainable communities. We don't just talk about progress and innovation here - we make it happen, with our customers, where we work and live. Together, we are building a better world, so we can all enjoy living in it.
What does it mean to live the Caterpillar Experience?
It means you play a part in building a better world. You contribute to a winning culture-a spirit of accountability-that has driven change on every continent for more than 90 years. To work with us is a commitment to improve sustainability, invent for the digital age and innovate in order to bring solutions to millions of people. Sure, you work for Caterpillar. But more importantly, you work for the good of your career, your family, your community and your world.
Join a team making a real impact! Develop your expertise as an Experimental Equipment Mechanic at the Peoria Proving Grounds, working on tomorrow's heavy equipment.
**This is a temporary long-term role with opportunities for direct hire**
What To Expect:
As an Experimental Equipment Mechanic, Supplemental, at the Peoria Proving Grounds, you can expect to work on being an integral part of tomorrow's equipment. This position is widely diversified. You will work detailed procedures, troubleshooting, tearing down and building sensitive heavy equipment. Form day to day, you may work in the assembly of an entire prototype machine, the buildup of sub-assemblies that include modifications to current production models, or minor changes to a configuration in preparation for machine test activity. You will work from blueprints, sketches, computer generated models, and written instructions from the supervisor or engineer. Working self-directed, you will often plan the method and sequence of the assembly. Expect to work with hand tools, portable power tools, power presses, simple machine tools, and powered cranes to assemble parts into a complete unit, making alterations and hand fitting parts when necessary, along with the use of various precision gaging tools to check accuracy of assembly and fitting operations. If you've dreamed of operating next-gen equipment, this is your opportunity! You will operate the machines you work on to check assembly and performance. You will collaborate with departments to make suggestions concerning methods of overcoming difficulties encountered in assembly / disassembly, analysis of parts failure, possible changes in design to correct failure, and any other pertinent insights gained while performing assembly / disassembly or dismantling of the machine for test.
