3rd Shift Industrial Maintenance Technician

Position Overview

We are seeking a 3rd Shift Maintenance Technician responsible for maintaining, troubleshooting, and improving a wide range of production equipment used in vinyl window manufacturing.

Because 3rd shift runs fewer production lines, this role is heavily focused on preventative maintenance, equipment cleaning/inspection, and preparing the facility for next-day operations, while also responding to any equipment or facility issues that arise overnight.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone who is self-directed, mechanically inclined, and comfortable working autonomously on a night shift

Key Responsibilities

Equipment Maintenance

Perform preventative maintenance on production lines (vinyl saws, welders, corner cleaners, milling equipment, punch presses, HVAC-driven cooling systems, etc.).

• Inspect, maintain, and troubleshoot:
• Pneumatic systems (air cylinders, valves, manifolds).
• Older-style control boards, drives, and relays.
• Servo-motor systems and modern control modules.
• Conveyors, material-handling equipment, and ancillary support systems.

Troubleshooting & Repair

• Diagnose mechanical, electrical, hydraulic, and pneumatic issues.
• Perform corrective repairs on equipment downtime events during overnight operations.
• Communicate any carry-over issues to the day-shift maintenance team.

Facility & Safety

• Conduct routine building and infrastructure checks (air compressors, lighting, forklifts, power distribution, etc.).
• Support plant safety initiatives—lockout/tagout, guarding, spill containment, and compliance procedures.
• Maintain a clean, organized, and safe work environment.

Technical Support

• Interpret schematics, wiring diagrams, mechanical drawings, and equipment manuals.
• Assist in continuous-improvement projects and equipment upgrades as needed.
• Collaborate with maintenance leadership to improve PM programs and machine reliability.

Qualifications

Required:

• 2 years of industrial maintenance, mechanical repair, or related experience.
• Working knowledge of pneumatics, motors, electrical circuits, and mechanical systems.
• Ability to troubleshoot using multimeters, hand tools, and basic diagnostic methods.
• Strong self-management skills and comfort working independently on 3rd shift.
• Ability to lift 50 lbs and work in a manufacturing environment.

Preferred:

• Experience with servo-controlled machinery or CNC systems.
• Familiarity with older drive cards, relay-based controls, or retrofitted legacy equipment.
• Maintenance experience in fenestration, plastics, or metal fabrication environments.
• Basic understanding of PLCs, sensors, and industrial automation.

Schedule

• 10-hour shift
• 4x10
• Evening shift
• Sunday to Thursday
• Weekends as needed

What We Offer

• Competitive hourly pay shift differential.
• Health, dental, and vision insurance.
• Paid time off and holiday pay.
• Stable, long-term employment in a growing manufacturing environment.
• Supportive, family-oriented company culture.
