Qualifications

What We’re Looking For

You don’t need to know everything on day one—we’re looking for someone who is reliable, safety-minded, willing to learn, and comfortable working in a manufacturing environment.

A good candidate will have:

High school diploma or GED
Related maintenance, mechanical, or manufacturing experience preferred
Ability to read and follow written instructions, diagrams, schedules, and technical procedures
Basic math and problem-solving skills
Good communication skills
Ability to work independently and as part of a team
A strong commitment to safety and quality

What to Expect

This is an active, hands-on role in a manufacturing environment. You’ll regularly be on your feet, working around production equipment and occasionally bending, climbing, kneeling, crouching, or reaching.

The position also requires the ability to occasionally lift or move up to 50 pounds and work safely around moving mechanical equipment.

Why This Role Matters

Preventive maintenance is about fixing problems before they become problems. Your work helps reduce equipment downtime, improve reliability, maintain a safe workplace, and keep production running efficiently.

If you enjoy working with equipment, solving practical problems, and being part of a team that keeps a manufacturing operation moving, we’d love to hear from you!
