A day in the life

You arrive for an off-shift handoff, scan overnight logs, and jump straight into action: clearing a CNC alarm, diagnosing a robot fault, and tracing a sensor signal in a PLC routine. By the time production ramps, you’ve aligned a new conveyor, swapped a worn bearing, verified motor drives, and updated preventive maintenance notes—keeping uptime high and safety first.

About the opportunity

DirectPath Recruiting Services has partnered with a leading manufacturer to hire experienced multi-craft maintenance professionals to support production assets and facility systems. This role blends electrical and mechanical expertise—CNC troubleshooting, robotics, PLCs, welding, installation, and commissioning—to keep a modern plant running smoothly around the clock.

  • Test, verify, and operate equipment to isolate and resolve mechanical and electrical malfunctions.
  • Perform welding, cutting, fabrication, and metal repairs when needed.
  • Install, level, align, and commission new manufacturing equipment.
  • Use precision tools—calipers, micrometers, and diagnostic instruments—to validate adjustments and tolerances.
  • Maintain accurate work orders, PM records, and repair documentation.
  • Contribute to continuous improvement while following all safety standards.
  • Replace or rebuild defective components using appropriate hand and power tools.
Preferred background
