The Maintenance Mechanic maintains, troubleshoots, and repairs production machinery and facility equipment in a metal clad manufacturing plant. The role helps ensure equipment operates safely and reliably, minimizing downtime while supporting production, quality, and plant safety requirements.

• Inspect, diagnose, repair, and maintain mechanical equipment, including rolling, bonding, leveling, slitting, forming, and material-handling systems.
• Troubleshoot mechanical failures involving bearings, gearboxes, motors, belts, chains, hydraulics, pneumatics, pumps, and related components.
• Perform preventive and predictive maintenance according to schedules and work orders.
• Respond to equipment breakdowns and coordinate repairs with production and other maintenance team members.
• Read and interpret equipment manuals, mechanical drawings, schematics, and work instructions.
• Use hand tools, power tools, measuring instruments, and shop equipment safely and effectively.
• Assist with equipment installations, modifications, alignments, and commissioning.
• Document maintenance work, parts used, equipment condition, and follow-up needs in the plant’s maintenance system.

• Maintain an orderly maintenance shop and ensure tools and parts are stored properly.
• Follow lockout/tagout, machine-guarding, hot-work, confined-space, and other applicable safety procedures.
• Coordinate with electrical, controls, production, and engineering personnel as needed.

• High school diploma or equivalent; technical training in industrial maintenance or a related field preferred.
• Experience as an industrial maintenance mechanic, millwright, or similar role in a manufacturing environment.
• Working knowledge of mechanical systems, hydraulics, pneumatics, and industrial equipment.
• Ability to interpret mechanical drawings and use basic measuring tools.
• Strong troubleshooting skills, attention to detail, and commitment to safe work.
• Welding, machining, rigging, or computerized maintenance management system (CMMS) experience is an advantage.

• Ability to work in a manufacturing environment with exposure to noise, moving equipment, temperature variation, oils, and greases.
• Ability to stand, walk, climb, bend, and lift tools or components as required, with or without reasonable accommodation.
• Ability to wear required personal protective equipment and work scheduled shifts, including overtime or call-ins when needed.

• Equipment is maintained and repaired safely and effectively.
• Maintenance work is completed and documented accurately.
• Equipment downtime and repeat failures are reduced.
• Safety procedures and plant maintenance standards are consistently followed.
