Lead maintenance technician

Are you a master of the "multi-craft" who thrives when the pressure is on? We aren't just keeping the lights on-we're swinging for the fences. We are looking for a Maintenance Shift Leader who pairs elite technical grit with the leadership presence to guide a high-performing team toward operational excellence.

This isn't your standard "fix-it" role. As the heartbeat of our maintenance operations, you will be the technical anchor for our technicians and the primary architect of shift success. From deep-diving into root cause analysis to championing continuous improvement, you'll ensure our facility doesn't just run-it evolves. If you're a safety-first problem solver with a passion for mentorship and a "zero-downtime" mindset, you belong on our team.

Why You'll Stand Out You aren't just a technician; you're a strategist. You understand that a successful shift is built on clear communication, meticulous documentation, and a relentless focus on reliability. You have the "shop floor" credibility to troubleshoot a complex PLC or hydraulic system, combined with the professional polish to manage CMMS data and lead cross-shift handoffs.

The Core Mission

• Be the Technical Resource: Act as the "go-to" expert for AC/DC motors, drives, and industrial equipment.
• Champion Execution: Own the shift's workflow, ensuring preventive maintenance and emergency repairs are handled safely and efficiently.
• Drive Reliability: Go beyond the "quick fix" by participating in failure reporting and Root Cause Analysis (RCA) to prevent future issues.
• Elevate the Team: Train and support fellow technicians, fostering a culture of precision and safety.
