• Execute lockout/tagout, confined space, hot work, and other required permits and safety procedures; verify isolation and maintain a safe work area for maintenance and contractor activities.

• Read and interpret mechanical and electrical schematics, OEM manuals, work instructions, and drawings; follow standard operating procedures and maintenance checklists.

• Coordinate with operations and engineering to plan and execute preventive and corrective maintenance, minor modifications, and equipment upgrades to minimize downtime and ensure quality.

• Order and maintain inventory of spare parts and consumables; recommend stocking levels and cost‑effective repair strategies to support uptime and reduce lead times.

• Participate in continuous improvement initiatives such as reliability projects, root cause analysis, and failure mode reviews to improve equipment performance and reduce repeat failures.

• Train and mentor junior technicians and contractors on safe work methods, troubleshooting techniques, and company maintenance standards.

• Maintain accurate maintenance records, complete preventive maintenance logs, and contribute to maintenance performance metrics and reports for leadership review.

Required Qualifications - Skills & Experience

• High school diploma or equivalent; technical trade school certificate, associate degree in a related field, or equivalent combination of education and hands‑on maintenance experience preferred.

• 3+ years of progressive mechanical and electrical maintenance experience in industrial, manufacturing, or commercial facility environments.

• Proven ability to troubleshoot mechanical systems (bearings, couplings, gearboxes, pumps) and basic electrical systems (motors, starters, control wiring); experience with PLCs, VFDs, and basic instrumentation is a plus.

• Practical experience performing preventive and predictive maintenance tasks, including use of vibration analyzers, infrared cameras, and fluid sampling equipment.

• Working knowledge of lockout/tagout, confined space entry, and other safe work practices; ability to follow permits and execute tasks in compliance with safety procedures.

• Strong mechanical aptitude, hand tool proficiency, and ability to operate lifting equipment safely (hoists, cranes, forklifts) where applicable; relevant operator certifications advantageous.

• Effective communication skills, ability to read technical documentation, and competency with computerized maintenance management systems (CMMS) and basic Microsoft Office tools.

• Ability to work both independently and as part of cross‑functional teams, prioritize multiple tasks, and respond to changing operational needs including shift work or on‑call rotations if required.

Preferred Qualifications - Domain & Tools

• Formal certifications such as Industrial Maintenance Technician, HVAC certification, electrical trade license, or equivalent are advantageous.

• Experience with PLC troubleshooting and programming basics, VFD setup, and industrial control systems diagnostics.

• Familiarity with reliability‑centered maintenance (RCM), root cause analysis tools (5‑Why, fishbone), and continuous improvement methodologies (Kaizen, 5S).

• Proficiency with CMMS platforms for work order management, inventory control, and maintenance planning; experience with data visualization tools for reporting maintenance KPIs is a plus.

• Prior experience supporting planned outages, turnarounds, or capital projects and coordinating contractor maintenance activities.

Work Environment & Compensation

• Full‑time, onsite role within an interdisciplinary maintenance and operations organization; position requires regular work in indoor and outdoor industrial environments, exposure to noise, heights, and confined spaces, and use of personal protective equipment.

• Competitive salary and benefits package commensurate with experience, including health coverage, retirement plan options, paid time off, and opportunities for overtime and shift differentials where applicable.

• Access to training, certifications, and professional development to support career growth and technical skill advancement.

• We are committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion and foster a respectful, safe work environment that supports work‑life balance and employee well‑being.
