  • Maintain an organized inventory of commonly needed maintenance parts and supplies
  • Keep accurate records of preventive maintenance and completed repairs

  • Ability to work independently and prioritize repairs based on production needs
  • Dependable, safety-minded, and willing to take ownership of the facility and equipment

What We're Looking For

We want more than someone who simply changes filters and performs routine maintenance. We are looking for a hands-on problem solver who can diagnose why a machine is down, determine what needs to be repaired, and get it back into production.

The right person will take pride in keeping the shop organized, equipment maintained, and production running.
