In this role, you will support the safe, reliable, and efficient operation of a growing sawmill facility. This hands-on leadership role is ideal for an experienced maintenance professional skilled in troubleshooting, repairs, preventative maintenance, and equipment improvements.

You’ll help keep production running by diagnosing and repairing mechanical, electrical, hydraulic, and pneumatic issues, minimizing downtime, and improving equipment reliability. Working closely with production teams, you’ll support the safe operation of sawmill equipment including saws, conveyors, log handling systems, motors, and controls.

Join a team where your maintenance expertise, problem-solving skills, and commitment to safety make a direct impact every day.

Schedule: This is a full-time position. Production schedules typically do not include Friday production, creating an important opportunity for planned repairs, preventative maintenance, inspections, and downtime projects.

  • Plan and perform preventative maintenance to reduce downtime and improve reliability.
  • Respond quickly to equipment failures and restore safe production operations.
  • Inspect equipment for wear, damage, alignment issues, leaks, and safety concerns.
  • Communicate repair needs, downtime issues, and maintenance priorities to management.
  • Maintain maintenance records and support equipment upgrades, fabrication, welding, and improvement projects.
  • Follow and support all safety policies, including lockout/tagout, machine guarding, electrical safety, and safe maintenance practices
  • Identify and help correct unsafe conditions and communicate safety concerns promptly
  • Ensure equipment is returned to service only when it is safe to operate

Requirements

  • Strong mechanical maintenance experience in an industrial, sawmill, lumber, manufacturing, or similar environment.
  • Knowledge of electrical, hydraulic, and equipment troubleshooting and repair.
  • Ability to perform hands-on maintenance, diagnose issues, and implement effective repairs.
  • Comfortable working safely around saws, conveyors, moving equipment, forklifts, and industrial systems.
  • Ability to read and follow manuals, diagrams, and maintenance procedures.
  • Strong communication skills with management, production teams, and vendors.
  • Dependable, self-motivated, and able to work independently with limited supervision.
  • Must be at least 18 years old.

Bonus if You Have the Following

  • Prior sawmill, pallet, lumber, wood products, or heavy industrial maintenance experience
  • Experience with preventative maintenance programs
  • Experience with welding/fabrication and common mechanical components (bearings, chains, belts, gearboxes, motors, sensors, controls)
  • PLC, motor control, VFD, or industrial electrical troubleshooting experience
  • Experience supporting safety programs and equipment guarding/lockout-tagout improvements
  • Forklift, loader, manlift, or mobile equipment experience

Work Environment

This role is performed in an industrial pine sawmill environment with exposure to noise, sawdust, moving equipment, logs, sharp cutting equipment, vibration, weather conditions, hydraulic and electrical systems, and varying temperatures. You may stand, walk, climb, bend/kneel, reach, use tools, and perform occasional lifting or material handling as needed. Reasonable accommodations may be made to enable individuals with disabilities to perform the essential functions.

If you’re a hands-on maintenance professional who values safety, reliability, and continuous improvement, we’d love to hear from you. Apply Today!
