This is an industrial/production maintenance position—not a building or facilities maintenance position.

Our facility is looking for an experienced Industrial / Production Maintenance Technician to troubleshoot, repair, and maintain the equipment and process systems that keep our metal-finishing operations running.

The primary focus of this position is production equipment and process maintenance, including pumps, motors, mechanical equipment, production machinery, valves, and the extensive plastic piping systems used to move chemicals throughout our production processes.

You'll respond to equipment breakdowns, diagnose mechanical and process problems, perform preventive maintenance, and make repairs that keep production operating safely and efficiently.

The position also requires working knowledge of HVAC and basic plumbing, but candidates whose experience is primarily residential, apartment, commercial-building, or general facilities maintenance will not have the type of experience we're seeking for this position.

We're looking for someone with hands-on maintenance experience in an industrial, manufacturing, processing, or production environment—someone who can troubleshoot a problem, determine what's causing it, and make the appropriate repair.

• Troubleshoot, repair, and maintain industrial production machinery and equipment.
• Respond to equipment breakdowns and production maintenance needs.
• Diagnose and repair pumps, motors, valves, and related mechanical systems.
• Troubleshoot equipment and process problems to determine the underlying cause of failures.
• Maintain and repair plastic process piping used to move chemicals throughout production.
• Repair or replace PVC, CPVC, valves, fittings, piping, and related components.
• Diagnose leaks, flow problems, pump issues, and other process-system problems.
• Perform scheduled preventive maintenance on production equipment and systems.
• Make mechanical repairs and replace worn or failed components.
• Perform HVAC maintenance and troubleshooting as needed.
• Perform basic plumbing repairs.
• Read and follow equipment manuals, work orders, procedures, and technical information.
• Use hand tools, power tools, meters, and other maintenance equipment safely and effectively.
• Document completed maintenance and communicate additional repairs or follow-up work that may be needed.
• Maintain tools,…
