Keep Production Running on First Shift

A plastics manufacturer is hiring an experienced Industrial Maintenance Technician with strong mechanical troubleshooting and repair skills. This is a hands-on maintenance position responsible for diagnosing equipment problems, completing repairs, and keeping production machinery operating reliably.

Previous plastic molding-machine experience is preferred, but it is not required. Candidates with solid industrial maintenance experience and a strong mechanical background may be considered. PLC knowledge and electrical troubleshooting experience are valuable additional strengths.

What You'll Do

  • Troubleshoot and repair mechanical problems on production and molding equipment
  • Respond to equipment breakdowns and identify the source of failures
  • Complete preventive maintenance on manufacturing machinery
  • Repair, replace, and adjust mechanical components
  • Support electrical diagnostics and PLC-related troubleshooting based on experience
  • Use equipment manuals, diagrams, and technical information to complete repairs
  • Document completed maintenance and communicate equipment concerns
  • Work with production employees to reduce downtime and restore equipment operation
  • Maintain an organized personal toolbox and work area

What We're Looking For

  • Previous industrial maintenance experience in a manufacturing environment
  • Strong mechanical troubleshooting and hands-on repair ability
  • Experience maintaining plastic molding machinery preferred
  • PLC knowledge or industrial electrical troubleshooting experience strongly preferred
  • Ability to diagnose equipment failures instead of simply replacing parts
  • Dependable availability for the full first-shift schedule and overtime as needed
  • Ability to work independently and prioritize active equipment issues

Why Consider This Opportunity?

  • First-shift, Monday-Friday schedule
  • Overtime opportunities for additional earning potential
  • Opportunity to build experience with plastic molding and production equipment
  • Full-time hours and long-term employment potential
  • Opportunity to transition directly onto the company's team after a successful introductory period
  • Medical, dental, and vision insurance
  • Weekly pay
  • Referral bonus
