Job description

Electro-Mechanical Technician (2nd Shift) | $27.00–$44.80/hr | Milwaukee, WI

Tired of running from breakdown to breakdown with no time to fix anything right? Read this.

We're building a maintenance operation that runs on a plan, not on adrenaline. Palermo's is investing in the team and the technology to shift from reactive emergency repairs to planned, predictive maintenance. If you're a careful, methodical technician who has outgrown a chaotic shop, this is the environment you've been looking for: steady, organized, and built around doing the work right.

What You'll Do

• Diagnose and repair electrical and mechanical systems, working to the root cause so problems stay fixed.
• Troubleshoot PLCs, VFDs, servos, robotics, and programmable controls.
• Carry out planned preventive maintenance and help us build predictive maintenance using equipment data and condition monitoring.
• Spend your time fixing causes, not chasing the same symptoms every shift.

You'll Do Your Best Work Here If You

• Are calm, methodical, and precise, and you fix root causes—not symptoms.
• Have outgrown a reactive shop and want time to do the job properly.
• Are a dependable, plainspoken teammate.

Pay

$27.00–$44.80/hour based on experience, plus shift premiums on 2nd and 3rd shift

Schedule

Hiring on 2nd Shift (2:00 p.m.–10:30 p.m.)

• Free uniforms and reimbursement for safety shoes, prescription safety glasses, and tools
• Fantastic benefits beginning the 1st of the month after hire
• 401(k) & Roth with company match and fully vested on the 1st of the month after hire
