Maintenance Technician
Mission
<\/h2>
To ensure the reliability, safety, and performance of a high\-volume manufacturing facility by maintaining and improving critical production systems. This role exists to prevent downtime, protect product quality, and sustain operational excellence in a fast\-paced food production environment.
<\/p>
The Maintenance Technician is not simply repairing equipment. This role safeguards throughput, supports production teams, and strengthens plant performance through disciplined troubleshooting and preventative maintenance.
<\/p>
Performance Objectives (What Success Looks Like)
<\/h2>
<\/p>
Maximize Equipment Uptime<\/b>
<\/div>Diagnose and repair mechanical, electrical, and PLC\-controlled systems to minimize unplanned downtime across pumps, valves, conveyors, gearboxes, and related equipment.
<\/div>
<\/p><\/li>
<\/p>
Execute Preventative Maintenance with Precision<\/b>
<\/div>Complete scheduled PM work orders through CMMS (SAP preferred), ensuring calibration, inspection, and documentation meet compliance standards.
<\/div>
<\/p><\/li>
<\/p>
Lead Electrical & Automation Troubleshooting<\/b>
<\/div>Troubleshoot and repair three\-phase (480V/220V) systems, industrial controls, and Allen Bradley PLC/SLC programs to restore safe and efficient operations.
<\/div>
<\/p><\/li>
<\/p>
Strengthen Instrumentation & Controls Reliability<\/b>
<\/div>Calibrate plant instrumentation across various makes and specifications; update or reconstruct existing PLC programs when necessary.
<\/div>
<\/p><\/li>
<\/p>
Maintain Safety & Compliance Standards<\/b>
<\/div>Operate within GMP guidelines, adhere to PPE requirements, and safely handle hazardous materials in high\-noise and temperature\-variable environments.
<\/div>
<\/p><\/li>
<\/p>
Support 24/7 Operational Readiness<\/b>
<\/div>Communicate effectively across production and maintenance teams to ensure seamless shift transitions and rapid response to issues.
<\/div>
<\/p><\/li><\/ol>
Ideal Fit Traits
<\/h2>Mechanical and electrical systems thinker
<\/p><\/li>
Independent decision\-maker under pressure
<\/p><\/li>
Strong troubleshooting mindset
<\/p><\/li>
Detail\-oriented with compliance discipline
<\/p><\/li>
Team\-oriented communicator across departments
<\/p><\/li>
Comfortable working in physically demanding industrial environments
<\/p><\/li>
Mission\-first contributor who supports production continuity
<\/p><\/li><\/ul>
Why This Role Matters
<\/h2>
This position directly impacts plant safety, productivity, and long\-term operational success. Every repair completed correctly protects the integrity of the production line and supports a team that feeds families across the country.
<\/p>
If you are a technician who takes ownership beyond the work order and believes equipment reliability is a mission\u2014not a task\u2014this role aligns with that purpose.
