About Hudson Pump & Tencarva
Hudson Pump & Equipment, founded in 1979, is a Florida‑based distributor and service provider of pumps and fluid process equipment, with locations in Lakeland, Jacksonville, and West Palm Beach. Hudson became part of Tencarva Machinery Company in 2001.
Tencarva is a distributor, engineering and design partner, and OEM‑authorized repair network within the process equipment/flow control market.

The Role
This is a hands‑on role centered on pump rebuilds and light field service work. You’ll be responsible for tearing down, diagnosing, remanufacturing, and testing a variety of pumps and rotating equipment. Field work is typically straightforward service – laser alignments, seal and bearing replacement, and assisting with installs and start‑ups. The majority of technical complexity in this role comes from the rebuild and diagnostic work performed in the shop.
You’ll be the primary mechanic at this location, responsible for managing your own work, maintaining quality, and representing the company professionally with customers when on‑site.

Run the day‑to‑day service & repair operation for the West Palm area, including pump rebuilds, rotating equipment repair, and field service
Tear down, inspect, diagnose, and rebuild pumps and rotating equipment
Identify root cause of failure and determine appropriate repair scope
Replace bearings, seals, shafts, impellers, and other wear components
Perform laser alignment and assist with equipment installation
Handle basic field service work including troubleshooting and equipment adjustments
Read and interpret mechanical drawings, manuals, and parts diagrams
Maintain a clean, organized, and safe shop environment
Communicate professionally with customers during field visits
Coordinate work and priorities with service leadership
Work closely with internal teams (Repair Coordinators, Repair Engineers, Sales Support Specialists, Sales Engineers, etc.) to ensure repair scopes, parts, and timelines are aligned
Maintain a strong safety culture and clean working environment
Keep the shop organized, efficient, and running on schedule
When necessary, communicate directly with customers on job status, timelines, issues, etc.

Benefits include medical, dental, vision, disability, life insurance, and paid time off.
Requirements
What You’ll Need to Be Successful
