Keep the Machines Running and the Flavor Flowing

At Sandridge Crafted Foods, fresh, delicious food is our passion, and behind every perfectly cooked grain bowl and crave-worthy soup is a machine running like clockwork, thanks to people like you.

We’re on the lookout for a Production Maintenance Technician who doesn’t just fix problems—they anticipate them. You know the hum of a happy motor, can spot wear before it becomes a tear, and aren’t afraid to get your hands a little greasy in the name of greatness.

This isn’t just a maintenance gig—it’s your chance to be the unsung hero of the food world. You’ll be the calm in the chaos, the fixer of breakdowns, the guardian of uptime. If “problem-solver” is your middle name and you’ve got a sixth sense for machines, we want you on our team.

Bring your tools, your talent, and your can-do attitude—because at Sandridge, your work keeps the flavor flowing.

Compensation:

$22 - $40 hourly

Responsibilities:

What You’ll Be Doing

• Perform preventative maintenance and repairs on a variety of food production machinery, systems, and equipment
• Troubleshoot mechanical, electrical, and pneumatic issues quickly and effectively—downtime is your enemy, and you don’t let it win
• Respond to urgent maintenance calls and production interruptions with confidence and urgency
• Read and interpret blueprints, schematics, and manuals like a boss
• Use tools of the trade to get things done right the first time
• Document maintenance work, part usage, and system updates to keep things organized and audit-ready
• Collaborate with production staff and leadership to ensure minimal disruption and maximum performance
• Maintain a safe, clean, and efficient workspace—you know that a tidy shop is a productive shop

Qualifications:

What We’re Looking For

• A solid mechanical background, ideally with 2+ years of industrial or manufacturing maintenance experience
• Working knowledge of electrical, hydraulic, pneumatic, and mechanical systems
• Ability to troubleshoot and repair motors, conveyors, pumps, gearboxes, and other food production equipment
• Comfortable with tools, ladders, lifts, and getting your hands dirty
• Willingness to work flexible hours, including nights, weekends, and on-call shifts when needed
• Safety-first mindset with knowledge of OSHA regulations and best practices
• Bonus points if you’ve worked in a food processing environment or have a maintenance certification, but attitude and skills matter most
