What are the responsibilities and job description for the Senior Maintenance Technician position at C & M Machine Products, Inc.?
Lead. Solve. Keep production moving.
C&M Precision Tech is looking for a skilled and driven Senior Maintenance Technician who doesn’t just fix problems—but owns them, solves them, and prevents them from happening again. In this role, you’ll tackle complex equipment challenges, and play a critical part in keeping our operations running at peak performance.
If you’re someone who thrives in a fast-paced manufacturing environment and enjoys being the go-to expert for tough technical issues —this is your opportunity to make a real impact.
What You’ll Do
Leadership & Oversight
- Lead and support a team of Maintenance Technicians
- Audit and improve Preventive Maintenance (PM) programs and practices
- Act as the key point of contact for outside contractors and vendors
Hands-On Technical Work
- Install, maintain, and repair production machinery and facility equipment
- Diagnose and resolve complex equipment issues, minimizing downtime
- Interpret and work from prints, schematics, and technical documents
Critical Problem Solving
- Develop and execute emergency repair plans for high-priority equipment issues
(coordinate with Operations, secure parts/tools, schedule repairs, and drive resolution) - Assess equipment condition and recommend repair or replacement strategies
Project & Process Management
- Manage multiple maintenance projects while meeting deadlines
- Create, track, and close work orders with accurate and actionable data
- Continuously improve maintenance processes and documentation
Vendor & Parts Management
- Research and coordinate with suppliers, contractors, and repair vendors
- Support purchasing activities, including parts sourcing and PO submissions
🧠 What You Bring
- Strong experience in industrial maintenance within a manufacturing environment
- Proven ability to troubleshoot and solve complex mechanical and electrical issues
- Experience leading or mentoring maintenance teams
- Ability to manage multiple priorities and projects simultaneously
- Solid communication skills and a collaborative mindset
- Experience with CNC, Swiss, and Lathe machine diagnostics and repair (preferred)
💡 Why This Role Stands Out
- Be the technical leader others rely on for critical problem-solving
- High-impact role with visibility across operations and leadership
- Opportunity to shape and improve maintenance systems and processes
- Work in an environment where your expertise directly reduces downtime and drives efficiency
