Industrial Maintenance Mechanic

Location: Newark

Compensation: $22–$32 per hour

Schedule: 2nd Shift, Monday–Friday

A day on the floor

It’s the start of 2nd shift in Newark. You scan the work queue: a scheduled PM on a folder, an inserting machine throwing an intermittent fault, and a conveyor tracking issue. With a meter in one hand and a wrench in the other, you trace signals against schematics, verify tolerances with precision instruments, and bring production assets back to peak condition. By the end of the night, a die cutter is back in spec, a printing press is aligned and running true, and the team is hitting targets—safely and efficiently.

What you’ll take on

• Diagnose and resolve electrical and mechanical issues on production machinery
• Service equipment per technical manuals, diagrams, blueprints, and OEM specifications
• Support a fleet that includes die cutters, printing presses, inserting machines, folders, conveyor systems, and bindery equipment
• Apply hand and power tools along with precision measuring instruments to verify adjustments and tolerances
• Fabricate or repair parts using welding equipment and machine shop tools as needed
• Execute preventive maintenance and detailed equipment inspections
• Champion safe work practices and restore equipment to reliable, efficient operation

What you bring

• Hands-on experience in industrial maintenance with both electrical and mechanical repair
• Ability to interpret diagrams, blueprints, and technical documentation
• Background with machine shop assets—lathes, milling machines, drill presses, and grinders—is a plus
• Strong diagnostic mindset and practical problem-solving skills

Tools of the trade

You’ll rely on meters, gauges, calipers, and other precision instruments, along with welders and shop equipment to fabricate components that keep critical assets online.
