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.
Day in the Life
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
