From our production facilities in Indianapolis and Houston to our service centers in Lubbock and Fresno, Peerless pumps are designed to protect people and property from fire and to bring water where it’s needed most. Our product quality is second to none, but it’s our people who’ve made us Peerless for over 100 years. Our legacy of innovation is fueled by attracting, training, and retaining employees from diverse backgrounds. With competitive benefits and a strong emphasis on development, growth, and innovation, Peerless employees come seeking a job but stay to build a career.

Create and maintain Material Masters, drawing revisions, and part attribute data through the engineering change process in SAP.
Review CRM inquiries and initiate order processing requests for pump orders, new materials, and engineering support.

A Bachelor's degree in a technical discipline or equivalent experience.
