Job Description

Job Description

Join a Premier Corrugated Operation in Cheswick, PA

Pro Services Workforce Solutions is partnering with a Fortune 500 corrugated packaging manufacturer to hire an experienced electro-mechanical expert for a direct-hire role on third shift. This is a non-union plant known for promoting from within and investing in technician growth.

You arrive to a clean handoff and jump into proactive checks while the line ramps up. When a Flexo Folder Gluer throws a fault, you trace control circuits methodically, isolate the issue at the I/O, and return the EVOL and DRO back to spec. Between calls, you rebuild a gearbox, swap a worn conveyor bearing, and schedule a predictive task for a hydraulic cylinder showing early wear. You collaborate with a tight-knit crew of three to four techs, work independently when needed, and tap vendor support for any PLC program-side needs.

• Openings created by promotions—not turnover.
• Defined path from B/A to AA level with paid on-the-job and TPC training (typically 1–2 years).
• Strong peer support on shift, plus vendor access when you need it.
• Room to be independent—your troubleshooting skills matter.

• Keep corrugated converting equipment running: Flexo Folder Gluers, rotary/flat die cutters, EVOL, DRO, conveyors, and banders.
• Execute reactive, planned, proactive, and predictive maintenance across electrical and mechanical systems.

• Read electrical prints/schematics; diagnose motors, relays, and related components.
• Diagnose PLC hardware to the card level (Allen‑Bradley and Siemens); coordinate with vendors for program changes.
• Rebuild and service bearings, shafts, seals, gearboxes, and conveyor systems.
• Work on positive displacement, air diaphragm, and centrifugal pumps; rebuild hydraulic cylinders.
• Weld and fabricate using MIG (required) and stick (preferred).

• 5+ years of multicraft industrial maintenance (Maintenance B level or higher).
• Strong electrical foundation: confident with meters; troubleshooting control, single phase, and 480V three phase.
• Ability to read electrical/mechanical prints and schematics.
• PLC hardware troubleshooting experience.
• Hands-on mechanical skills: bearings, shafts, seals, gearboxes, conveyors, and mechanical rebuilds.
• Hydraulic/pneumatic familiarity, including pump work and cylinder rebuilds.
• MIG welding required; MIG + stick preferred.
• Bring your own basic hand tools (specialty tools provided).
• Willing to work third shift Monday–Friday plus most Saturdays.
• Authorization to work in the U.S.

• Intermediate experience (4–7 years) in electrical, mechanical, hydraulic, pneumatic, or welding disciplines.
• Background with VFDs, servos, I/O modules, sensors, wiring, cabinet troubleshooting, or work above 480V.
• Exposure to HMIs, robots, or CNC systems.
• Corrugated, packaging, or pulp & paper experience.
• Current arc flash certification (you’ll also complete site certification).
• Technical degree/certification in mechanical, electrical, or industrial maintenance.

• $32.70/hr (B level) to $36.97/hr (A level), plus $0.50/hr shift premium.
• 1.5x pay over 8 hours/day and over 40 hours/week; weekend and holiday premiums.
• Paid OJT and computer-based training with a clear path to AA level.
• Multiple healthcare plan options; retirement plans with additional company contributions.
• 11 paid holidays.
• Up to 1 week vacation in year of hire; 2 full weeks in first full year.
• Company-provided uniforms and laundering.
• Safety shoe and glasses allowance; tool stipend and replacement program.

• Third shift, Monday–Friday, 8-hour shifts; most Saturdays expected (avg. ~10 hrs OT/week).
• 90-day probationary period with active HR support for benefits.
• On your feet ~90% of the shift; regular lifting/carrying/pulling 21–50 lbs.
• Frequent ladder/scaffold work; bending, squatting, kneeling.
• Walking surfaces may be slippery, narrow, vibrating, unsteady, or moving.
• Required PPE: safety shoes, safety eyewear, hearing protection.
