Electro-Mechanical Maintenance Tech | 3-Day Weekends | Frederick, MD

Night shift Maintenance Technician needed at a growing industrial food manufacturing facility in Frederick, MD. 12-hour shifts on a 2-2-3 rotation, with a competitive pay rate and a clear path to advance your pay and your career.

⠀

Pave Talent is hiring on behalf of our client, an established and expanding industrial food manufacturing operation in Frederick, MD. The facility runs fully automated production lines and is actively growing its maintenance team to support that expansion. This is a stable, well-run operation where the maintenance department is valued, invested in, and set up to promote from within.

⠀

THE OPPORTUNITy

You'll join the night shift maintenance crew supporting fully automated production lines in a high-volume manufacturing environment. This is a hands-on role where no two nights are the same. You'll be troubleshooting electrical and mechanical issues, running PMs, and keeping the lines moving. The team is growing, the equipment is modern, and the facility genuinely values technicians who take ownership of their work.

⠀

WHAT YOU'LL BE DOING

• Troubleshoot and repair automated production line equipment during night shift

• Diagnose and resolve electrical faults including 480V three-phase systems and motor controls

• Work with PLC-controlled systems to identify and clear faults (Siemens and Allen-Bradley)

• Perform preventive maintenance tasks and document work in the CMMS

• Support mechanical repairs on conveyors, packaging lines, and automated production equipment

• Respond to line-down situations and work with urgency to restore production

⠀

QUALIFICATIONS

Required:

• 4 years of maintenance experience in a manufacturing environment

• Hands-on experience with automated production systems or production line equipment (not just components)

• Electrical and mechanical troubleshooting skills

• PLC experience (Allen-Bradley or Siemens)

• Availability for night shift: 6:00 PM to 6:30 AM, 2-2-3 rotating schedule

Bonus Points:

• Food or beverage manufacturing background

• VFD experience

• CMMS experience (any platform)

⠀

COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS

• Pay: $30-$45/hr depending on experience and skill level

• Schedule: Night shift, 6:00 PM to 6:30 AM, 2-2-3 rotation (12-hour shifts, more days off per month)

• Growth Path: Structured advancement program with defined pay tiers as your skills and responsibilities grow

• Benefits: Medical, dental, and vision coverage

• Career Upside: Real opportunity to grow into senior technician and leadership roles as the facility expands

⠀

WHY THIS ROLE STANDS OUT

Most maintenance jobs offer a title and a rate. This one offers a path. The facility is actively expanding production capacity, which means more lines, more complexity, and more room for the right technicians to grow into bigger roles. If you want to come in, prove your skills, and see that recognized on your paycheck and your career trajectory, this is that opportunity.
