Industrial Systems Reliability Technician

Job Description

Job Description

Step into a day on our maintenance team

You arrive to a fast-paced manufacturing and distribution floor where uptime matters. Your first task is a scheduled preventive inspection on automated conveyors. You verify guards, belts, rollers, and sensors, make small adjustments, and log everything in our CMMS (Computerized Maintenance Management System). Mid-morning, production flags a hydraulic issue. You isolate the fault, rebuild a valve, and bring the line back up safely. After lunch, you review blueprints and schematics to prep a minor equipment modification, then fabricate a bracket and perform a clean weld to complete the change. When an unexpected breakdown hits, you respond quickly, diagnose mechanical and pneumatic components, and restore flow so teams can hit their goals.

What you will do

• Execute routine, preventive, and corrective maintenance on automated conveyor systems to keep operations safe and efficient.
• Troubleshoot and repair mechanical, hydraulic, and pneumatic assemblies and subsystems.
• Conduct inspections to spot emerging issues and take proactive corrective actions.
• Read and interpret blueprints, mechanical drawings, schematics, and equipment manuals.
• Perform light machining, welding, and fabrication to repair or modify equipment.
• Partner with production and engineering on upgrades, retrofits, and continuous improvements.
• Track work orders, parts, and maintenance history using CMMS.
• Follow safety practices and adhere to OSHA regulations at all times.
• Respond rapidly to emergency breakdowns to reduce downtime.

What you bring

• High school diploma or GED required; technical certification in Industrial Maintenance, Mechatronics, or a related field preferred.
• 3 plus years of industrial maintenance experience in a manufacturing or warehouse environment.
• Hands-on experience with conveyor systems such as powered roller, belt, and sortation, including related components.
• Strong knowledge of hydraulic systems, diagnostics, and repair.
• Familiarity with electrical systems, motors, PLCs, and basic electrical troubleshooting is a plus.
• Ability to interpret schematics and mechanical drawings.
• Basic welding and fabrication skills are a plus.
• Excellent problem solving and communication skills.
• Comfort working independently and with a team in a high demand setting.

Technical proficiency

• PLC troubleshooting skills
• Equipment troubleshooting
• Mechanical troubleshooting skills
• 120, 208, 240, and 480 volt systems

Join a collaborative group of experienced technicians and continue growing your technical toolkit while keeping critical equipment running at peak performance.
