1st Shift Maintenance Technician

gpac
Sidney, OH Full Time
POSTED ON 4/10/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 5/9/2026
First Shift Maintenance Technician (Food Manufacturing)

Are you the kind of person who can hear a machine make a weird noise from across the plant and already know what's wrong? Do you love fixing things, keeping operations humming, and being the hero behind the scenes?

If so, we've got a spot for you.

Schedule

First Shift - because sleep matters and so does your work-life balance.

Pay & Perks

  • $25-$35/hour (DOE)
  • $1.50/hour weekly attendance bonus - yep, just for showing up on time and doing your thing
  • Stable, growing company in the food manufacturing space
  • Team that actually values maintenance (no band-aid fixes here)

What You'll Be Doing

  • Keep production running smoothly by troubleshooting and repairing equipment
  • Perform preventative maintenance (because you fix problems before they happen)
  • Work on conveyors, processing equipment, packaging lines, and more
  • Partner with production to minimize downtime and maximize efficiency
  • Help improve processes-not just patch them up

What We're Looking For

  • Food manufacturing experience REQUIRED
  • Meat processing experience = big bonus points
  • Strong mechanical and electrical troubleshooting skills
  • Ability to think on your feet and stay calm under pressure
  • Someone dependable (you like that attendance bonus, right?)

Why This Role?

You won't just be "the maintenance person." You'll be a key player in keeping a fast-paced operation running smoothly, safely, and efficiently. Plus-you get rewarded just for being reliable. Not a bad deal.

If you're ready to bring your skills to a team that appreciates what you do, let's talk. If you're qualified and ready to interview, send your confidential resume to Brittany at brittany.hamilton@gogpac.com
