Multi-Craft Maintenance Technician

Job Description

Job Description

Overview:

We are seeking a true Multi-Craft Maintenance Technician to keep our heavily automated production operations running at a high level. In this fast-paced corporate manufacturing environment, you must be confident working across both mechanical and electrical disciplines, with strong troubleshooting instincts and the ability to work problems from symptoms to root cause.

Because our floor is highly automated, this role requires a strong emphasis on electrical troubleshooting, PLCs, ladder logic, and robotic CNC cells. In addition to real-time breakdown response, you will be responsible for critical mechanical work, including precision machine alignments. For the right technician, we provide a robust, formalized training program to help bridge technical gaps and continually advance your skills in PLCs and automation.

If you're a skilled multi-craft maintenance technician, looking for a great long term home with training and benefits, this is the company for you!
