Day-in-the-Life

When the plant is quiet and the lines are moving, you’re the expert keeping production humming. One moment you’re diagnosing a 480V 3‑phase motor fault; the next, you’re rebuilding a positive displacement pump or tracing a control valve issue via schematics and an oscilloscope. You’ll pivot quickly between electrical and mechanical disciplines, responding to maintenance calls with urgency and finishing in‑progress repairs to get equipment back online.

  • Troubleshoot and repair AC/DC electrical systems using volt/ohm meters, amp meters, and oscilloscopes
  • Install and maintain pneumatic and hydraulic systems, control valves, and centrifugal/positive displacement pumps
  • Leverage strong PLC knowledge for diagnostics; utilize preventative maintenance systems and work order tracking
  • Operate lathes, mills, and perform arc and Heliarc® welding for repair and fabrication
  • Inspect equipment, build short- and long-term repair plans, and follow task lists to completion
  • Coach entry-level mechanics on complex repairs and best practices

Where You’ll Work

Our manufacturing facilities are large and can be loud. Temperatures can vary with the seasons, and conditions may include humidity, slippery surfaces, and other industrial environmental factors. Work and hours can vary by assigned location.

What We’re Known For

  • Deep expertise in high‑voltage wiring (480V 3‑phase motors)
  • Multi‑craft maintenance across electrical and mechanical systems

If that sounds like your wheelhouse, you’ll thrive here.

Qualifications & Experience

We’re seeking experienced maintenance professionals. If you’re earlier in your journey, consider one of our entry‑level roles. Prior to any in‑person interview, candidates complete a hands‑on electrical skills test.

Helpful background: electrical certification, maintenance experience in manufacturing, technical school training, and/or welding experience. Many hiring managers prefer at least two years of training/experience in mechanical/electrical repair in a manufacturing environment.

  • Available to work weekends and holidays
  • Lift 15–50 lbs with or without reasonable accommodation

  • Customer Service: Partner well with team members across the floor
  • Flexibility: Switch gears quickly and prioritize effectively
  • Self‑Starter: Own quality and pace, often while working independently
  • Safety‑Focused: Follow policies and procedures to protect people and product quality

There will be high‑pressure moments during downtime. Our team takes pride in solving tough problems—and the rewards are worth it.
