Fabrication Technician

**Join Project Eaden as Fabrication Technician**

Climate change is accelerating, with meat production as a major driver. Yet billions of people love eating it, and global consumption continues to rise. At Project Eaden, we believe the solution lies in creating a new generation of delicious, animal-free meat that billions can enjoy—helping save the planet in the process.

In this role, you’ll support our mechanical engineering team in fabricating, assembling, and modifying food processing machinery. You'll work closely with mechanical engineers to build custom equipment, prototypes, and components that enable our innovative plant-based meat production operations.

This is more than a job—it’s your opportunity to turn ideas into action and help tackle one of the planet’s most pressing challenges. Let’s build a sustainable future together.

**Key responsibilities**
- **Machinery Fabrication**: Fabricate and assemble mechanical components and equipment for plant-based food processing according to engineering drawings and specifications. Use various fabrication techniques including welding, machining, and assembly to build custom food processing equipment.
- **Prototype Development**: Support mechanical engineers in building and testing prototypes of new food processing concepts. Fabricate prototype components, assist with testing validation, and implement design modifications based on engineering feedback.
- **Equipment Assembly**: Assemble mechanical systems including mixers, conveyors, forming machines, and packaging equipment. Install mechanical components, connect systems, and ensure proper alignment and functionality of fabricated equipment.
- **Production Line Maintenance**: Carry out mechanical maintenance on production lines according to established maintenance plans and schedules. Perform preventive maintenance tasks, troubleshoot mechanical issues, and ensure production equipment operates at optimal performance levels.
- **Welding & Joining**:Perform welding operations including TIG, MIG, and arc welding to fabricate stainless steel and other food-grade materials. Ensure weld quality meets food safety standards and equipment specifications.
- **Workshop Maintenance**:Maintain fabrication tools, equipment, and workspace in proper working condition. Perform routine maintenance on machining equipment and ensure workshop safety standards are maintained.

**Requirements**:
