Job Description

Make Production Run Like Clockwork

You’re the kind of hands-on problem solver who notices small changes in pitch, vibration, or temperature—and knows what they mean. As our Industrial Maintenance Mechanic, you’ll be the go-to expert keeping machines, building systems, and production processes in peak condition so the line never misses a beat.

You’ll start by walking the floor, listening and observing. You’ll inspect key assets, verify preventive maintenance schedules, and jump on any urgent repair. When equipment underperforms, you’ll diagnose root causes, disassemble components, swap or rebuild parts, and bring assets back online—often working side-by-side with production to minimize downtime.

• Full-cycle equipment care: inspection, troubleshooting, repair, and performance verification
• Mechanical rebuilds: disassemble, repair/replace components, and reassemble to spec
• Routine care: clean, lubricate, align, and adjust machinery for reliability
• Facility support: assist with building systems and structural upkeep
• Fabrication and repair: use cutting torches and welding equipment as needed
• Production partnership: collaborate to reduce downtime and streamline processes
• Safety leadership: follow plant safety rules and emergency procedures without compromise
• Documentation: maintain accurate logs of parts, supplies, and maintenance activities
• Inspections: perform recurring checks on plant equipment and utilities
• Preventive programs: execute PMs and manage spare-parts inventory
• Vendor coordination: work with contractors; maintain strong supplier relationships
• Flex support: handle occasional off-shift or on-call maintenance needs

Additional related duties may be assigned as business needs evolve.

• High school diploma or GED
• 2–4 years of maintenance experience in a manufacturing setting
• Comfort with maintenance tools, gauges, and precision measuring devices
• Sharp diagnostic mindset and practical troubleshooting ability

• Background in paper converting or similar continuous-process operations
• Experience coordinating projects or leading maintenance tasks

• Safety-first, procedure-driven approach
• Strong prioritization, time management, and deadline discipline
• Cost-aware mindset with a bias for efficiency
• Reliable attendance and collaborative spirit
• Ability to interpret technical data and translate it into real-world fixes
