'position you have' and 'carry out' in this context?

[dkqmail]

Hi,
I have a question. Is it grammatically correct to use 'position you have' and 'carry out' in this context?

I read your advertisement, and I am very much interested in the position you have turner.
I am 40 years old. I currently work in the position turner in Germany and I am looking for job on the abroad. Actually, I am producing machinery parts in the food sector and I carry out their regeneration. I completed my education in the profession of manual turner and then I completed Technical Secondary School as mechanics technician.
​

Thank you in advance for your reply.

I don't understand what you mean by the part in red brackets.

(I carry out their regeneration.) - I am regenerating machinery parts

'Regenerate' might not be the word you want. In English, the word is normally used for organic entities - eg. a lizard can regenerate a tail if it's cut off. "The virus managed to regenerate after we thought we'd destroyed it."
Here are some examples:

Do you mean you do repairs, maintenance, replacements, modifications ...?

I mean refurbishment, repairs.

Why not simply say 'carry out parts production'?

Not a teacher.

 

[dkqmail]

What do you think of this?

Actually, I carry out the refurbishment and production of machinery parts in the food sector.

 

[Matthew Wai]

According to dictionaries, 'refurbishment' usually applies to buildings or rooms rather than machinery parts, so I think 'repairs' is more suitable.

Not a teacher.

You can refurb parts and machines.

 

[dkqmail]

What do you think of this?

In the present job, I produce parts for machinery used in the food sector, and I carry out maintenance on such parts.

 

[Tdol]

I'd use In my current/present job. How about combining the two- In my current/present job, I produce and refurbish parts for machinery used in the food sector.

 

[Matthew Wai]

You can refurb parts and machines.

I could not find 'refurb' in Macmillan, Cambridge, Merriam-Webster and Longman dictionaries, but it is included in the Oxford dictionary which says it is a noun meaning 'INFORMAL An act or instance of refurbishing a building'.
Is 'refurb parts and machines' an uncommon usage?

 

[SoothingDave]

"Refurb" is short for "refurbish" (verb) or "refurbished" (adjective) It's not uncommon.
