2nd Shift Maintenance Technician

Maintenance Technician

An established manufacturing operation is adding a Maintenance Technician on nights to keep its production equipment running. You troubleshoot and repair mechanical, electrical, hydraulic, and pneumatic failures across the plant — motors, conveyors, presses, pneumatic tools, and production machines — and get lines back up fast. Pay moves up a posted, skill-based ladder as you add electrical, PLC, and advanced-diagnostic capability.

Anticipated $17.60–$27.85 per hour, based on experience and demonstrated skill level

Pay advances on a defined skill ladder (electrical, PLC, and advanced diagnostics move you up)

Full suite of benefits, 401K w/match, PTO/Holiday

Typical shift 5:00PM - 3:30AM; maintenance typically runs ~50 hours/week on 10-hour shifts

• Keep production equipment running — troubleshoot and repair mechanical, electrical, hydraulic, and pneumatic failures with a root-cause mindset

• Repair or replace defective parts: bearings, belts, chains, motors, control circuits, and structural components
• Use shop tools (welder, drill press, grinder, metalworking tools) to fabricate and repair parts
