Be the Expert Everyone Calls First
Are you the go-to problem solver when a press trips, a conveyor stalls, or a robot faults? Do you thrive where precision mechanics meets industrial electricity and PLC logic? Join us to keep a high-activity manufacturing operation running at peak performance.
Why This Role
- Advance on a clear pathway from Maintenance Technician to Master Maintenance Technician with hands-on assessments and a Ramsey score > 80th percentile.
- Own impactful work on upsetters, shears, blasters, cranes, conveyors, extrusion presses, and robotic cells.
- Work with PLCs (RSLogix/Allen-Bradley), VFDs, and high-voltage systems (480v, 4160v) while honing your millwright craft.
Your Impact
- Dismantle, install, troubleshoot, repair, and maintain electro-mechanical controls and devices across plant equipment.
- Install and troubleshoot motors, drives, starters, and I/O circuits; execute building and utility maintenance (electrical devices, compressed air, natural gas).
- Complete PMs; record and maintain accurate logs; follow safe operating procedures and LOTO/arc-flash practices.
- Read and apply blueprints/schematics; assemble machines and secure to foundations via bolting, welding, and riveting.
- Program/select robot routines; measure, cut, and bend wire/conduit; drill pass-throughs; pull wiring; track shorts.
- Assist with rigging and positioning motors, conduit, and wiring; perform minor electrical repairs (fuses, sockets, bulbs, switches).
- Disassemble/replace worn components; perform basic non-load-bearing welding and torch cutting; keep areas, machines, and tools clean.
Must-Haves
- 4+ years in manufacturing as an Electrical Maintenance tech or Millwright; strong mechanical aptitude.
- Clear, detailed communicator; able to work solo or on a team with supervision as needed.
- Math skills: proportions, percentages, area, circumference, volume; basic algebra/geometry.
- Comfort with basic tech (self-service portals, time clocks) and interpreting technical instructions/diagrams; able to navigate abstract and concrete variables.
Preferred Edge
- Elec-Test and Multi-Craft test completion; willing to work all shifts to gain full maintenance exposure.
- RSLogix/Allen-Bradley PLCs; ability to troubleshoot/repair with test instruments, schematics, and ladder logic.
- ABB/Motoman/Fanuc robotics familiarity.
- Proficient with 480v and 4160v systems, VFDs, panel building, and schematic reading.
- Deep knowledge of lockout/tagout and arc-flash; apply National Electrical Code; bend conduit independently.
- Safe use of electrical test equipment; read electrical/mechanical drawings; weld and torch-cut safely.
- Fluent with dials/gauges; accurate with level and square.
Education
- High school diploma or GED preferred.
- Associate’s in Industrial Maintenance or accredited Millwright certificate/training preferred.
Physical & Environmental Realities
- Frequent standing, walking, pushing, pulling, squatting, bending, reaching; climbing ladders/stairs to 30 ft+.
- Move materials using carts, dollies, cranes, and jacks; navigate narrow walkways, confined spaces, overhead mezzanines.
- Operate amid temperature fluctuations, high noise, and vibration; wear required PPE (hard hat, eye protection, ear plugs, metatarsal/steel-toe footwear).
- Work around historic machinery, conveyance systems, and active traffic areas with occasional standing water.
Career Progression: Tech to Master
Hands-on in-field testing (e.g., hydraulic pump rebuild, equipment electrical troubleshooting, welding proficiency) is required. Achieving a Ramsey Maintenance Test score above the 80th national percentile qualifies you to move into the Master Maintenance Technician tier.
Compensation & Benefits
- Hourly: Maintenance Technician — $35.70/hr; Master Maintenance Technician — $40.80/hr
- Full-time role with Benefits Day 1 (Medical, Dental, Vision, STD, AD & D Life insurance) — bolded benefits are company paid.
- 401(k) company match
- PTO available immediately upon hire
- Two (2) weeks paid vacation after 1 year
Leadership
No supervisory responsibilities.
