Overnight maintenance technician

If you are a high-level troubleshooter who gets a rush from tracking down a phantom electrical fault or tuning a complex fluid power setup to perfection, this is your home field. Randstad has partnered with a high-volume manufacturing facility in the Morgan Hill area to find an experienced Industrial Maintenance Technician II. This is a 3rd shift role with at 15% shift differential!

We don't need a parts-swapper. We need an autonomous, sharp-eyed technician who knows high-speed mechanical drives, complex hydraulics, pneumatic actuators, and PLC logic inside and out-someone who takes pride in keeping advanced automated production lines humming at top performance with minimal supervision.

Why Techs Want This Role

• High-Tech Systems: Ownership over automated equipment, heavy-duty conveyor networks, fluid power systems, and advanced machinery.
• Proactive Culture: Leverage modern CMMS software and Total Productive Maintenance (TPM) tools so you're spending time optimizing, not just reacting to breakdowns.
• Top-Tier Pay: Earn up to $97,760/year based on experience, backed by stable third-shift hours + a 15% differential. What You Bring to the Table
• Proven Experience: 3+ years of industrial maintenance in high-volume, automated production environments.
• Mechanical & Fluid Power Mastery: Deep expertise in troubleshooting, repairing, and rebuilding heavy conveyance systems, hydraulic power units, directional valves, and pneumatic logic.
• Electrical & PLC Savvy: Ability to read complex electrical schematics, use multimeters for high/low-voltage diagnostics, and perform PLC troubleshooting/programming analysis to clear line faults fast.
• CMMS & Tech Skills: Comfortable using CMMS software for daily work order tracking, equipment history logging, and spare parts management.
• Safety & Resilience: Mastery of Lock-Out/Tag-Out (LOTO) protocols and 3S/5S standards, physical ability to lift up to 55 lbs, and readiness to support a 24/7 high-volume facility.
