Mission

Support a precision manufacturing facility producing high-performance conveyor and motion systems by ensuring all production and facility equipment operates safely, reliably, and efficiently. This role exists to sustain uptime, troubleshoot mechanical systems, and lead hands-on maintenance solutions that keep operations moving without interruption.

Performance Objectives
  • Diagnose & Repair Equipment Failures: Troubleshoot, evaluate, and repair production, fabrication, and test equipment — with emphasis on mechanical systems such as gearboxes, bearings, hydraulics, and pneumatics.

  • Perform Preventive Maintenance: Execute and improve the preventative maintenance program to reduce downtime and extend equipment lifespan.

  • Fabricate & Innovate: Read or create sketches, source materials, and fabricate repair parts or improvements as needed. Demonstrate creative, hands-on problem-solving to keep production on schedule.

  • Support Safety & Reliability: Follow lockout/tagout and plant safety procedures rigorously; identify hazards before they become incidents.

  • Collaborate Across Teams: Partner with Production, Fabrication, and Quality departments to prioritize repairs and support production goals.

  • Document & Communicate: Maintain clear, accurate logs, schematics, and reports; communicate effectively with supervisors and peers to ensure smooth shift transitions.

Fit Traits
  • Mechanically inclined, hands-on leader who thrives in a team setting

  • Skilled fabricator and natural troubleshooter

  • Curious, resourceful, and confident working independently with minimal supervision

  • Calm under pressure, especially during unplanned outages

  • Strong communicator with pride in precision, craftsmanship, and reliability

Why This Role Matters

This role is ideal for mechanically-minded veterans or technicians who love fixing, fabricating, and improving real equipment — not sitting behind a screen. You’ll be trusted to think, build, and lead with your hands. If you want a first-shift role with steady hours, a team-oriented culture, and the freedom to solve problems your way, this is where you can make an impact.

Requirements
  • Must have served in the U.S. Army, U.S. Navy, U.S. Marine Corps, U.S. Air Force, U.S. Coast Guard, U.S. Space Force, U.S. Reserves, or U.S. National Guard.

  • Minimum 5 years of mechanical and basic electrical maintenance experience (or equivalent military background)

  • Experience with industrial equipment repair including gearboxes, chains, bearings, sprockets, hydraulics, and pneumatics

  • Ability to read and interpret mechanical and electrical schematics, relay logic, and basic automation diagrams

  • Basic fabrication and electrical troubleshooting ability (wiring, motors, relays, controls)

  • Able to work occasional overtime and on-call hours as needed

  • Must be able to safely use all required tools and diagnostic equipment

Benefits
  • Comprehensive Medical, Dental, and Vision coverage with low or zero-cost options for employee-only plans

  • 401(k) with company match

  • Paid Time Off and paid holidays

  • Employer-paid life insurance and disability coverage

  • Company-provided tools, training, and certification opportunities

  • Employee wellness and gym membership program

  • “Buddy System” onboarding — every new hire paired with an experienced team mentor

Compensation: $28–$32/hour

Shift: 1st Shift (7:00 AM – 3:00 PM, paid breaks and lunch)

On-call rotation possible for after-hours coverage; overtime available.
