Industrial Maintenance Technician / Millwright

Job Description

Industrial Maintenance Technician / Millwright - Manufacturing Job


If you are the person everyone calls when production equipment goes down, this opportunity deserves a look.


A well-established manufacturer is seeking an experienced Industrial Maintenance Technician to support production equipment, troubleshoot mechanical and electrical issues, and help keep the plant running safely and efficiently.


This is a hands-on position for someone who enjoys figuring out why equipment failed - and fixing the problem instead of simply replacing parts.


What You'll Be Doing

• Troubleshoot and repair industrial production machinery
• Diagnose mechanical, electrical, hydraulic and pneumatic problems
• Perform preventive and predictive maintenance
• Repair conveyors, bearings, gearboxes, pumps, motors and related equipment
• Troubleshoot sensors, VFDs and basic PLC-controlled equipment
• Perform equipment alignments, adjustments and changeouts
• Assist with fabrication, welding and equipment modifications as needed
• Read mechanical drawings, schematics and equipment manuals
• Document repairs and maintenance activity
• Work closely with production to reduce downtime and improve equipment reliability

What We're Looking For

• Industrial manufacturing maintenance experience
• Strong mechanical troubleshooting ability
• Experience with hydraulics and pneumatics
• Knowledge of motors, bearings, gearboxes, conveyors and pumps
• Electrical troubleshooting experience is highly desirable
• PLC troubleshooting experience is a plus
• Millwright, industrial mechanic or maintenance mechanic backgrounds are encouraged
• Welding and fabrication experience is a plus
• Strong safety awareness and ability to work independently

Experience in wood products, lumber, food manufacturing, industrial machinery, metals, packaging, processing or other heavy manufacturing environments can translate well.


If you're an experienced industrial maintenance professional who takes pride in keeping equipment running, I'd like to hear from you.
