Are you a true technician at heart with experience in gas or cryogenic systems? Do you enjoy hands-on work, think in solutions, and want to work on specialized equipment in a modern workshop? Then this is your opportunity to become a Gas & Cryo Tank Container Mechanic!
At Schenk Intermodal, we focus daily on the intermodal transport of industrial gases, CO₂, and LNG. Our fleet of around 1,000 tank containers is equipped with advanced technology and requires skilled maintenance. In our in-house workshop—specially equipped for this type of equipment—you and a small team are responsible for the maintenance, repairs, and inspections of these tanks. No day is the same, and your technical insight and sense of responsibility make a real impact.
What does the job involve?
You will work independently and in collaboration with colleagues to ensure our tank containers remain safe and operational. You’ll be responsible for preventive maintenance, troubleshooting, and making technical modifications. You’ll work with high-end equipment in a safe and well-organized environment, applying various techniques from welding to electronics, and from gas measurements to pressure testing.
In this role, you’ll have the opportunity to learn, contribute ideas for improvement, and specialize further in a niche area of engineering. You’ll work on unique equipment and help ensure the safe transport of hazardous materials.
Your main tasks:
- Repairing damage to the frame and structure of tank containers, including welding tasks (TIG/MIG/MAG)
- Performing routine maintenance and inspections
- Diagnosing issues and overhauling valves and fittings
- Conducting gas measurements, pressure tests, and safety checks
- Resolving electrical faults and performing basic electronic repairs
- Maintaining a safe and orderly workspace in compliance with safety regulations
