What are the responsibilities and job description for the Industrial Maintenance Mechanic (Electro-Mechanical) position at Freudenberg USA?
A day in the life
You clock in, scan the preventive maintenance queue, and prep your toolkit. Your morning starts with scheduled PMs to keep lines humming. Mid-shift, production flags an unexpected stop—within minutes, you isolate the fault, verify power on a 480V panel, swap a worn component, and bring the line back. Before the day ends, you document every step, check spares levels, and collaborate with operators on a small improvement that shaves seconds off changeover.
What you’ll do
- Execute routine preventive maintenance to maximize equipment uptime and efficiency.
- Troubleshoot, repair, and assist with installations across mechanical, electrical, hydraulic, and pneumatic systems.
- Follow all safety protocols and accurately document maintenance activities and work orders.
- Keep tools organized, records precise, and monitor spare parts inventory to ensure readiness.
- Support facility upkeep and partner closely with production to reduce downtime.
- Engage in training and contribute ideas to continuous improvement initiatives.
What you’ll bring
- 3 years of industrial maintenance experience with strong electro-mechanical troubleshooting, including 480V systems and below.
- Hands-on knowledge of plant machinery, tools, and industrial equipment; conveyor system experience preferred.
- Ability to read and interpret OEM manuals, blueprints, electrical schematics, and safety procedures.
- Proven skill repairing mechanical, electrical, hydraulic, and pneumatic components.
- Familiarity with PLC operation, diagnostics, and basic troubleshooting.
- Problem-solving mindset, strong safety focus, and the ability to work independently in a fast-paced manufacturing setting.
