Step into a core role on a world-class steelmaking maintenance team. As a Mechanical Maintenance Technician, you’ll keep critical production equipment online in a heavy industrial setting. You’ll work with standard and specialty tools, operate and support mobile and lifting equipment (including pendant/overhead cranes and forklifts), and ensure continuous operation by installing, maintaining, repairing, and operating a wide range of mechanical systems.
You arrive for your 8-hour rotating shift, suit up with PPE, review work orders, and prioritize tasks with the team. One moment you’re diagnosing a hydraulic leak on a mill stand; the next, you’re replacing a power transmission component on a conveyor or assisting operations during a critical run. You may climb to service equipment at height, enter a confined space with proper permitting, or respond to an equipment alert in a hot, wet, or noisy area of the plant. At times, you’ll work independently with minimal supervision; at others, you’ll collaborate with fellow technicians to return assets to service quickly and safely.
Safety is our core value. You will follow all procedures and wear required PPE at all times, including hard hat, safety glasses, hearing protection, protective clothing, and boots with metatarsal protection. Lockout/Tagout (LOTO) is a daily discipline.
