Job Description
Step into a hands-on role that keeps production moving
In this position, you’ll be the go-to expert who keeps robots, presses, and PLC-driven equipment running smoothly in a high-volume automotive components environment.
Role Snapshot- Location: Valparaiso, IN 46383
- Compensation: $30 – $35 per hour
- Shifts: 2nd (2:30pm – 11:00pm) or 3rd (10:30pm – 7:00am)
- Benefits: Great benefits package and long-term, full-time stability
You arrive ready to tackle a mix of preventive maintenance and fast-turn repairs. One hour you’re installing conduit and power for a new robot cell; the next you’re diagnosing a finicky motor drive, swapping bearings, or tracing a control fault from a PLC input to a sensor. You’ll read schematics, work from manuals, and collaborate closely with team leaders—while coaching junior techs through tougher challenges.
What You’ll Do- Install and connect power wiring, conduit, and cabling for equipment such as robots, presses, and PLC systems
- Diagnose and fix electrical/mechanical issues (motors, controls, lighting, circuit boards)
- Replace bearings, rewire motors, and verify repairs on robotic/automated systems
- Troubleshoot escalated problems and guide less-experienced technicians
- Interpret schematics and manuals to execute repairs and new installations
- Communicate clearly with supervisors and team leads; document work
- Stay current with new technologies and expand your technical toolkit
- Certificate from a technical college (1 year) or equivalent training/experience
- 3+ years in industrial maintenance (electrical and mechanical), ideally in manufacturing
- Ability to interpret technical documentation and safety procedures
- Background across both mechanical and electrical systems preferred
- Comfort working in PPE with physical tasks (standing, kneeling, tool use)
- Licenses to operate lifts or powered industrial trucks are a plus
