Maintenance Technician

We are seeking an experienced Industrial Maintenance Mechanic to support production equipment, automated manufacturing systems, and facility infrastructure within a fast-paced manufacturing environment.

This is a hands-on maintenance position responsible for diagnosing, troubleshooting, repairing, installing, and maintaining a wide range of industrial equipment. The ideal candidate has a strong mechanical background with experience supporting CNC equipment, PLC-controlled machinery, robotics, hydraulics, pneumatics, motors, VFDs, conveyors, and other automated production systems.

You will work closely with production, maintenance, and engineering teams to maximize equipment reliability, reduce downtime, and support the installation and commissioning of new equipment and production systems.

Key Responsibilities

• Diagnose, troubleshoot, and repair CNC-based production equipment and automated machinery.
• Troubleshoot complex mechanical, hydraulic, pneumatic, electrical, and electromechanical systems.
• Perform preventative and corrective maintenance on production machinery, conveyors, pumps, compressors, gearboxes, motors, and rotating equipment.
• Troubleshoot and maintain PLC-controlled manufacturing equipment.
• Support FANUC robotic cells, including safety circuits, sensors, controls, and end-of-arm tooling.
• Diagnose mechanical failures and determine appropriate corrective actions.
• Rebuild and overhaul machinery and components to OEM specifications.
• Perform machinery installation, alignment, dismantling, balancing, and vibration-related maintenance.
• Troubleshoot presses, CNC machines, conveyors, and auxiliary manufacturing equipment.
• Work with VFDs, motors, servos, encoders, and motor-control systems.
• Replace bearings, seals, belts, chains, motors, and other mechanical components.
• Perform welding, cutting, fabrication, and basic machining as required.
• Read and interpret mechanical and electrical blueprints, schematics, ladder logic, technical drawings, manuals, and machine documentation.
• Use precision measuring equipment, gauges, meters, and hand/power tools.
• Support equipment installations, production-line moves, process changes, and new equipment commissioning.
• Partner with engineering teams on equipment upgrades and production improvements.
• Identify recurring equipment failures and recommend corrective actions to improve reliability and uptime.
• Perform emergency repairs to minimize production interruptions.
• Complete and document preventative maintenance activities and equipment repairs within the CMMS.
• Maintain appropriate maintenance supplies, spare parts, and vendor relationships.
• Support Continuous Improvement initiatives and equipment-related process improvements.
• Assist with training and development of maintenance team members.
• Operate industrial lift equipment after completing required certifications.
• Follow all applicable safety procedures, including Lockout/Tagout, hot work, confined-space, and elevated-work requirements.

Required Qualifications

• High school diploma, GED, or equivalent combination of education and relevant work experience.
• Minimum of 2 years of industrial or manufacturing maintenance experience.
• Hands-on experience working with electrical systems ranging from low voltage through 480V.
• Experience troubleshooting PLC-controlled industrial equipment.
• Strong mechanical troubleshooting capabilities.
• Working knowledge of hydraulics and pneumatics.
• Ability to troubleshoot both power and control systems.
• Ability to read and interpret electrical schematics, ladder logic, one-line diagrams, blueprints, and machine documentation.
• Experience working safely around industrial machinery and automated production equipment.
• Ability to work collaboratively with maintenance, engineering, and production teams.
• Ability to follow established safety procedures and regulatory requirements.

Preferred Qualifications

• 5 years of industrial or manufacturing maintenance experience.
• Experience supporting CNC machining equipment.
• Experience with FANUC robotics or robotic welding systems.
• Experience with automated manufacturing or process equipment.
• Experience supporting E-Coat / electrocoating systems or other industrial finishing equipment.
• Experience with continuous-pouring or composite-manufacturing equipment.
• Additional electrical training, coursework, or equivalent technical experience.
• Experience with CMMS platforms such as Limble or similar systems.

Physical & Work Environment Requirements

This position works onsite in an active manufacturing environment and requires the ability to:

• Stand and move throughout the manufacturing floor for extended periods.
• Lift, carry, push, and pull up to approximately 50 pounds.
• Work around industrial machinery and production equipment.
• Wear required personal protective equipment, including safety glasses, hearing protection, and safety footwear.
• Perform work that may require respirator use.
• Safely perform elevated, confined-space, and hot-work activities when required.

What We’re Looking For

We are looking for a dependable, safety-focused maintenance professional who enjoys troubleshooting difficult equipment problems and working directly with production machinery. The strongest candidates will combine solid mechanical skills with exposure to 480V electrical systems, PLC-controlled equipment, CNC machinery, robotics, hydraulics, and pneumatics.

If you enjoy keeping complex manufacturing equipment running and want a hands-on position where your work has a direct impact on production uptime and reliability, we encourage you to apply.
