Multi-Craft Maintenance Technician

Industrial Maintenance Technician

1st, 2nd & 3rd Shift | Milford, IN | Food Processing

$33–$37/hour base pay
2nd & 3rd Shift: $1/hour shift premium
50–55 hours/week on average | Some Saturdays

The Opportunity

We're looking for a true multi-craft Industrial Maintenance Technician who can troubleshoot beyond basic electrical circuits.

This is a hands-on role in a high-volume food processing environment where you'll work across electrical, mechanical, pneumatic, hydraulic, and controls systems. The right technician knows how to work through a problem logically, read electrical prints and ladder logic, and determine why equipment failed—not just replace the failed component.

If you're the person who gets called when the problem is more complicated than a basic start/stop circuit, this is the type of maintenance role you're looking for.

What You'll Do

• Troubleshoot and repair industrial production equipment
• Diagnose electrical problems beyond basic start/stop circuits
• Read and interpret hard-copy electrical schematics and ladder logic prints
• Trace control circuits and identify electrical faults
• Use electrical test equipment to diagnose problems
• Troubleshoot motors, sensors, switches, relays and contactors
• Troubleshoot conveyors, bearings, chains, gearboxes and processing equipment
• Work with pneumatic and hydraulic systems
• Perform preventive maintenance and equipment inspections
• Respond to equipment breakdowns and prioritize repairs
• Identify recurring problems and work toward root-cause solutions
• Complete maintenance documentation and communicate issues with the team

What We're Looking For

Required:

• Industrial maintenance experience in a manufacturing or production environment
• Strong electrical troubleshooting ability
• Ability to troubleshoot beyond basic start/stop circuits
• Ability to read and understand hard-copy ladder logic/electrical prints
• Strong mechanical troubleshooting skills
• Experience using electrical test equipment
• Ability to troubleshoot independently and methodically

Preferred:

• PLC troubleshooting experience
• Allen-Bradley or similar controls experience
• 480V electrical experience
• Sensors, relays, contactors and control circuits
• Pneumatic and hydraulic troubleshooting
• Conveyor and automated production equipment
• Preventive maintenance experience
• Food processing or similar high-volume manufacturing experience

Why You'll Want to Work Here

• Nearly 70 years of stability

• Opportunity to continue developing electrical and controls skills
• Experienced team and approachable leadership
• Benefits available after 60 days

The Bottom Line

This isn't a basic maintenance position.

They're looking for a technician who can walk up to a machine that's down, pull the electrical print, trace the circuit, troubleshoot the controls, and then work through the mechanical side if that's where the problem leads.

If you have strong electrical AND mechanical troubleshooting skills and want a stable manufacturing environment with plenty of hours, this is worth a conversation.
