Industrial Maintenance Mechanic, High-Speed Packaging

TekPro Engineering

Job Description

Step Into a Day on the Line

You arrive to find a high-speed packaging line calling for attention. A quick check of a VFD, a look over a 480V feed, and a servo axis realignment gets product flowing again. From there, you knock out scheduled PMs, tweak a pneumatic circuit for smoother motion, and partner with production to prevent the next unplanned stop. This role blends quick-hit troubleshooting with proactive maintenance to keep modern equipment running at peak reliability.

About the Opportunity

TekPro is recruiting on behalf of a growing manufacturer investing heavily in equipment and operations. It’s a stable environment with strong earning potential, modern automation, and a clear path for long-term growth.

What You’ll Tackle

Diagnose and repair packaging and production assets to cut downtime
Execute preventative and predictive maintenance on manufacturing machinery
Resolve mechanical, electrical, pneumatic, and hydraulic issues
Respond quickly to equipment failures and implement lasting corrective actions
Contribute to continuous improvement to boost reliability and throughput
Coordinate with operators and production leaders to maintain safe, efficient operations

Your Background

3+ years maintaining equipment in a manufacturing setting
Strength in both mechanical and electrical troubleshooting
Hands-on experience with conveyors, motors, drives, pumps, and automated systems
Ability to read electrical schematics and technical documentation
PLC troubleshooting exposure is a plus
Background in packaging, consumer products, food, plastics, or other high-speed environments preferred

Tools & Systems You’ll Work With

PLC-controlled equipment and automated production lines
High-speed packaging machinery and conveyor systems
Servo motors and variable frequency drives (VFDs)
120/208/240/480V electrical systems
Pneumatic and hydraulic circuits

Why This Role Stands Out

Stable company with ongoing growth and reinvestment
Competitive pay with overtime opportunities
Modern equipment and advanced automation
Clear advancement into senior maintenance, controls/automation, or leadership
Team-first culture centered on safety, reliability, and continuous improvement

Core Strengths We Value

Mechanical troubleshooting
Electrical maintenance and repair
Preventative and predictive maintenance
Equipment reliability focus

If you enjoy solving problems at speed, improving systems, and seeing the immediate impact of your work, this is a place to build your career.
