Pro Services is proud to partner with Rightman Industrial to fill a direct hire role, and we can say firsthand: this is a company that takes care of its people and stands behind its values, with real room to build a career, take ownership of your territory, and make a visible impact.

At Rightman Industrial, they specialize in waste recycling and dock equipment. The work is done across the automotive, food, and commercial industries. They are a growing company that values high-quality work, customer satisfaction, and teamwork, and are looking for a Service Technician who shares those values and is ready to grow. You'll be part of a supportive, collaborative team that truly cares about each other and the customers.

As a Level 3 Service Technician, you are the most experienced hands‑on technician in the field — the one other techs and customers turn to when a job gets complicated. You will:

• Diagnose and repair industrial trash compactors, balers, and loading dock equipment at customer sites across Michigan, working out of a fully stocked company service van.
• Own the electrical side of the job, comfortably working inside a live electrical panel to diagnose issues with relays, PLCs, limit switches, step‑down transformers, and motors on 0–24V, 110–240V single phase, and 480V three‑phase systems.
• Handle the mechanical and hydraulic work, including failing shafts, bearings, gearboxes, conveyors, compactor walls and floors, and hydraulic cylinders, directional valves, and pressure switches — pulling failed components back to the shop for rebuild when needed.
• Fabricate and weld on site using a stick welder to repair sheet metal on chutes and hoppers or reinforce the under structure of a loading dock.
• Be the face of Rightman Industrial at every customer site — communicating clearly with dispatch and the service manager, keeping the customer informed before you leave, and representing the company's standard of professionalism and workmanship.
• Mentor and train newer technicians, walking them through equipment, sharing what you know, and serving as the go‑to resource for the team's less experienced techs.

• Experience: 3+ years in industrial maintenance or field service, with strong, hands‑on electrical skills as your top strength — this is not an entry‑level or apprentice role.
• Electrical depth: proven ability to troubleshoot cabinets, wiring, sensors, motors, and control panels, and confidently teach meter proficiency to others.
• Working knowledge of Allen Bradley and Siemens components is a plus.
• Mechanical and hydraulic troubleshooting on industrial equipment; welding experience (stick welding) for on‑site repairs.
• Leadership instinct: prior experience training, mentoring, or leading other technicians.
• A valid driver's license and clean driving record, and willingness to obtain a chauffeur's license (Rightman covers the cost).
• Comfort working independently most of the day while staying in close communication with the shop — self‑sufficient, not siloed.
• Your own basic hand tools (Rightman supplies specialty tools, welding equipment, and the service vehicle).

This is a travel‑based role. You will run your own van and your own schedule, driving to customer sites across Michigan — primarily the Grand Rapids and West Michigan area, with routes that can range up to the Upper Peninsula or metro Detroit. The vast majority of nights you are home; overnight stays are rare (roughly a couple of times a year for larger installs) and…
