Join a stable manufacturing operation with a strong maintenance culture, long-term career growth, frequent pay reviews, and the chance to become a key player on a highly respected maintenance team.

• Read and interpret blueprints, wiring diagrams, schematics, and technical manuals

• Complete equipment installations, modifications, and upgrades

• Perform light fabrication, machining, MIG welding, and stick welding as needed

• Support continuous improvement initiatives focused on reliability and efficiency

• Work closely with operations and maintenance teams to maximize uptime

Required Experience

• 5+ years of industrial maintenance experience in a manufacturing environment

• Strong mechanical troubleshooting and repair ability

• Experience with hydraulics, pneumatics, gearboxes, conveyors, motors, and production equipment

• Experience working with 3-phase / 480V electrical systems

• Ability to read electrical schematics and machine prints

• Preventive maintenance and breakdown troubleshooting experience

• Strong understanding of industrial safety practices

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with VFDs and motor controls

• PLC troubleshooting experience

• Conveyor system maintenance experience

• Welding and fabrication skills

• Experience in high-speed manufacturing environments

Benefits & Perks

• Competitive pay with regular performance reviews

• Overtime opportunities available

• Medical, Dental, Vision, and 401(k)

• Long-term contract-to-hire opportunity

• Strong job stability in a recession-resistant industry

• Tight-knit maintenance team with excellent culture

• Clear path for advancement and increased earnings

Ideal Candidate

We're looking for someone with a strong work ethic, positive attitude, and a true troubleshooting mindset. The best fit is a technician who takes initiative, enjoys solving difficult mechanical and electrical problems, and wants to build a long-term career with a company that values skilled maintenance professionals.

If you have industrial maintenance experience and enjoy keeping critical equipment running at peak performance, this is an excellent opportunity to take the next step in your career.
