Maintenance Technician - Mechanical

An established heavy-manufacturing plant is adding a mechanical maintenance technician to its 2nd-shift team. This is the person who keeps heavy machinery moving - performing preventive maintenance and precision repairs on presses, hydraulics, and power-transmission systems so production does not stall. The role is hands-on and physical, spanning mechanical repair, basic electrical and controls support, and CMMS-tracked work orders on complex plant equipment.

For a mechanically strong maintenance tech, this offers a competitive hourly rate at the top of the local market and a stable, long-established manufacturer to grow with.

Anticipated $26.80-$33.80/hr, based on experience

Benefits include:
Health, Dental, Vision, 401K w/ match, PTO, holidays

2nd shift (evenings), Monday-Friday

  • Keep heavy machinery running through routine preventive maintenance on presses, hydraulics, and drive systems
  • Diagnose and repair mechanical failures - bearings, gearboxes, couplings, hydraulic and pneumatic systems
  • Inspect plant equipment and catch mechanical or electrical issues before they cause a breakdown
  • Support basic electrical and controls repairs alongside the electrical team
  • Open, update, and close work orders in the plant CMMS with parts and repair detail
  • Safely operate forklifts and overhead cranes to move heavy components
Preferred Skills and Experience
  • High school diploma or GED
  • 3-5 years of progressive industrial mechanical maintenance in a heavy manufacturing or production plant

  • Experience on industrial punch presses or similar heavy stamping/forming machinery
  • Practical troubleshooting of intermediate electrical controls and multi-phase components
  • Experience with precision alignment tools and industrial power tools
  • Structural or machine-framing welding a distinct advantage
