Duration: Fulltime/Permanent

Overview:

The ideal candidate will be a hands-on troubleshooter — someone with proven ability to diagnose, analyze, and resolve complex electrical and mechanical system issues. This role requires strong problem-solving skills, critical thinking, and the ability to work independently to identify and fix root causes rather than perform routine maintenance.

Duties:

• Repair or replace defective equipment parts, using hand tools and power tools, and reassemble equipment.
• Perform routine preventive maintenance to ensure that machines continue to run smoothly, building systems operate efficiently, or the physical condition of buildings does not deteriorate.
• Inspect drives, motors, and belts, check fluid levels, replace filters, or perform other maintenance actions, following checklists.
• Use tools ranging from common hand and power tools, such as hammers, hoists, saws, drills, and wrenches, to precision measuring instruments and electrical and electronic testing devices.
• Assemble, install or repair wiring, electrical and electronic components, pipe systems and plumbing, machinery, and equipment.
• Inspect, operate, and test machinery and equipment to diagnose machine malfunctions.
• Record type and cost of maintenance or repair work.
• Clean and lubricate shafts, bearings, gears, and other parts of machinery.
• Dismantle devices to access and remove defective parts, using hoists, cranes, hand tools, and power tools.

Qualifications:

• High school diploma or GED required.
• 5-7 years experience in machinery or equipment maintenance required.
• Basic knowledge of machines and tools, including their designs, uses, repair, and maintenance.
• Basic knowledge of raw materials, production processes, quality control, costs, and other techniques for maximizing the effective manufacture and distribution of goods.
