Job Description

Step Into a Day on Our Maintenance Team

When your shift starts, you’ll pull the latest tickets in the CMMS, walk the production floor, and put your hands on the assets that keep a global building-products operation moving. You’ll listen for the faint vibration that hints at a failing bearing, swap a worn belt before it snaps, and partner with operators on Total Productive Maintenance (TPM) to stop issues before they start. Later, you might dismantle a gearbox to replace a defective component to OEM spec, chase down an intermittent sensor fault with a multimeter, or get a conveyor back online so production hits its targets. You’ll close out your day by documenting work performed, ordering parts, and handing off clear status notes to the next team.

Your Core Impact

Equipment Repair (40%)

  • Install, maintain, and repair industrial machinery and mechanical systems across the facility.
  • Disassemble equipment, identify root-cause failures, and replace bad parts to OEM standards.
  • Handle facility/building equipment repairs as needs arise.

Troubleshooting (5%)

  • Diagnose electrical, mechanical, and pneumatic issues while equipment is in operation.
