North Hollywood, CAAssembly Supervisor – 2nd ShiftAbout WET (Design)
WET (Design) redefines what’s possible by merging advanced engineering, art, and technology to build the world’s most spectacular water features and multi-sensory installations. Our projects demand hands-on mastery, creativity, and a passion for mechanical systems at an unprecedented scale.Your Mission
As Assembly Production Supervisor, you’ll lead the assembly of complex, high-value mechanical systems—from large structural steel frames to custom-engineered parts, from industrial hydraulics and pipe fittings to mechatronic integrations. You’ll bring together a team of skilled builders, ensure total precision (from torque values to leak-proof seals), and drive the next generation of engineering art. If troubleshooting threads, optimizing fits, and assembling heavy, multi-material systems excites you, this role is the foundation of something legendary.Key ResponsibilitiesOversee mechanical assembly of structural steel parts, hydraulic, pneumatics, pipe fittings, custom assemblies, actuators, and precision mechanical subassembliesInterpret and execute mechanical drawings, assembly blueprints and schematicsEnsure correct selection, fitment, and torquing of fasteners, pipe fittings, couplings, seals, and gaskets using precision tools and torque wrenchesSupervise all stages of assembly—thread chasing, alignment, sealant application (including lock-tight/seal), pressure/leak testing, and movement/fit diagnosticsCoordinate and integrate electrical, optical, and control components as part of larger mechatronic assembliesTrain and mentor technicians on specialized mechanical techniques (hydraulic line routing, structural alignments, heavy rigging, threading, pressure/flow setup)Collaborate with engineering and quality teams to refine build processes, implement improvements, and close the feedback loop on prototype iterationsInstill uncompromising safety culture—especially around heavy lifting, pressure testing, and powered equipmentMaintain detailed assembly documentation, from torque records and fit checks to test reports and daily progress logsMonitor inventory of mechanical parts, assemblies, consumables, and specialty toolsIdeal CandidateExtensive hands-on experience in heavy mechanical or industrial assembly (structural steel, hydraulics, pipe fitting, actuators)Deep skill with precision tools, torque wrenches, hand tools, pneumatic tools, mechanical and electromechanical assembly toolsAdvanced ability to lead teams safely through large, intricate builds and complex hands-on processesProven knowledge of mechanical sealing, alignment, and troubleshootingAbility to read and implement intricate technical drawings and assembly documentationStrong problem solver, mentor, and communicator—comfortable driving project urgency and mechanical qualityHigh energy, curiosity, and drive—ready for a hands-on, transformative engineering projectWork Hours, Conditions & EnvironmentWork takes place in a large industrial warehouse space designed for heavy mechanical assembly and fabricationEnvironment includes high ceilings, open assembly bays, and areas equipped for handling large structural steel components and large equipment on wheelsTeams operate 10–12 hour shifts, 6 to 7 days per week to meet critical project milestones and delivery timelinesActive, hands-on role requiring standing, lifting, and close coordination amid noisy, busy surroundingsStrict adherence to safety protocols involving heavy lifting, tool operation, pressure testing, and powered machineryCollaborative, fast-paced setting emphasizing real-time problem solving and teamwork on complex mechanical buildsComfortable with the physical demands and energized by leading in a large-scale, industrial production environmentWhy WET (Design)?
Lead a hands-on mechanical team at the forefront of what’s possible, blending raw engineering, advanced systems, and creative artistry to sculpt the next generation of experiential features. Step up and shape high-profile, technically demanding projects that will amaze the world.WWW.WETDESIGN.COMPowered by JazzHR
