Automation & Facilities Reliability Technician – Fort Wayne, IN
Are you the kind of troubleshooter who sees a fault code as a challenge, not a setback? Do you enjoy moving from a PLC alarm to a mechanical root cause and back online with precision? Join us to elevate reliability across our production floor and facility systems.
What you’ll tackle
- Diagnose and repair mechanical and electrical issues on production equipment, material handling assets, and building systems
- Execute preventive and predictive maintenance to reduce unplanned downtime
- Work with hydraulics and pneumatics; service motors, bearings, and conveyors; and resolve issues on PLC-controlled machinery and automation components
- Accurately close work orders, log repairs, and keep supervisors informed with timely status updates
- Interpret and apply information from schematics, blueprints, and equipment manuals
- Support new equipment commissioning, complete machine changeovers, and drive continuous improvement activities
- Maintain a safety-first approach, adhering to all procedures and lockout/tagout requirements
How you’ll make a difference
By combining disciplined maintenance routines with fast, thoughtful troubleshooting, you’ll protect uptime and product quality. Your work will be visible every time a line starts on time and stays running safely and efficiently.
Imagine this scenario
A conveyor drops a load and stops unexpectedly. You verify LOTO, inspect bearings and belt alignment, test motor continuity, then confirm a PLC input is misreading due to a failed sensor. You replace it, update the work order with your findings, and brief your supervisor—preventing a repeat event through a targeted PM task. That’s the kind of impact you’ll have every day.
