Step Into a Day on the Floor
Sun up, safety check, and into the hum of a high-volume aluminum manufacturing facility. Your morning might start at an extrusion press that needs a quick diagnosis. With prints in hand and multimeter at your side, you trace an electrical fault, swap a failed component, and bring the line back to life. Before lunch, you’re deep into a hydraulic issueinspecting a cylinder, testing a valve, and verifying pressuresto keep throughput on target. The afternoon could be a planned changeover, a gearbox inspection on a conveyor, or a predictive check on bearings and pumps. Between calls, you document PMs, tidy your work area, and keep an eye on the next potential downtime risk.
How You’ll Make an Impact
- Troubleshoot and repair mechanical, hydraulic, pneumatic, and electrical equipment across production areas
- Own preventative and predictive maintenance to keep lines stable and efficient
- Maintain and repair aluminum extrusion presses and their supporting systems
- Diagnose issues with conveyors, motors, gearboxes, pumps, bearings, and other rotating assets
- Evaluate hydraulic and pneumatic circuits, including cylinders, valves, and related components
- Use a multimeter and electrical schematics to track down and resolve electrical faults
- Read and interpret mechanical drawings, blueprints, and electrical schematics to plan work
- Execute changeovers, adjustments, installations, and corrective repairs
- Complete PMs and record maintenance activities accurately and promptly
- Respond rapidly to unplanned downtime to minimize production interruption
- Follow plant safety procedures and maintain a clean, organized workspace
What You Bring
- Hands-on industrial maintenance experience, ideally within manufacturing
- Proficiency with hydraulics and pneumatics
- Strong mechanical troubleshooting and repair capabilities
- Experience servicing motors, gearboxes, conveyors, bearings, and pumps
- Ability to troubleshoot electrical systems using a multimeter
