3rd SHIFT OPENING – HOURS: M-F 10:00PM – 6:30AM
Picture your night: a molding line stops mid-run, a sensor is throwing faults, and a hydraulic circuit is running hot. You step in—diagnose the issue, swap the failed component, fine‑tune settings, and capture the work in the CMMS before moving on to a scheduled PM. That’s a typical shift for our Industrial Maintenance Mechanic keeping a high‑volume plastics operation running smoothly.

- Troubleshoot, repair, and replace electrical, electronic, mechanical, hydraulic, and pneumatic systems on production and facility equipment.
- Execute both scheduled preventive maintenance and unscheduled corrective work.
- Record work accurately in a computerized maintenance management system (CMMS).
- Work with an eye toward quality, reliability, scrap reduction, and safety targets.
- Follow all site safety procedures and policies at all times.
- Detect and address emerging failures in machines, subsystems, and components.
- Spot and recommend process improvements that increase uptime and efficiency.
- Help manage spare parts inventory and suggest critical spares.
- Operate machine shop and diagnostic tools: milling machine, band saw, drill press, lathe, welder, and electrical multimeter.
- Partner closely with Process Technicians and Supervisors to resolve technical process issues.
- Keep maintenance areas organized and clean.
- Other duties as assigned.
Qualifications
- 2–5 years of hands‑on industrial maintenance experience in blow molding and/or injection molding environments.
- Ability to read and interpret O&M instructions, manuals, blueprints, and electrical/controls schematics.
