Hands-on Work, real problem solving;
A role where you can make things work better every day.

We’re looking for a Maintenance Technician who enjoys figuring things out, fixing equipment, and keeping operations running smoothly. If you like hands-on work, variety in your day, and being the person others rely on when something breaks, this role is a strong fit.

You don’t need to come from a specific industry; what matters most is your mechanical ability, your willingness to learn, and your ability to troubleshoot and get things working again.

You’ll play a key role in keeping production and facility equipment running safely and efficiently:

• Perform routine preventive maintenance on production equipment and facility systems

• Troubleshoot and repair mechanical, electrical, pneumatic, and hydraulic issues

• Respond quickly to breakdowns to minimize downtime

• Keep accurate maintenance logs and repair records

• Assist with equipment installs, upgrades, and modifications

• Identify safety issues and help correct them

• Support general facility maintenance as needed

• Help production teams solve equipment-related issues on the floor

• Track and maintain spare parts inventory and order supplies when needed

• Look for ways to improve equipment performance and reduce downtime

What We’re Looking For

Required

• High school diploma or GED

• 2+ years of hands-on maintenance or repair experience in any field (examples: manufacturing, construction, facilities, automotive, equipment repair, or similar)

Preferred (Not Required)

• Experience in a manufacturing, industrial, or production environment

• Technical training or certification in Industrial Maintenance, Electrical, Mechanical Systems, Welding, or similar

• Experience working with mechanical, electrical, pneumatic, or hydraulic systems

• Preventive maintenance or equipment reliability experience

• Experience with forklifts, lifts, or other industrial equipment

• Background in building materials, wood products, or related industries

What You Bring

• Strong mechanical instincts and problem-solving ability

• Comfort working with tools and troubleshooting equipment issues

• Ability to stay organized and manage multiple tasks or priorities

• Willingness to jump in and support production when needed

• Attention to safety and detail in all work

• Ability to read basic manuals, diagrams, or instructions

• Good communication and teamwork skills

• Basic computer skills (email, spreadsheets, maintenance tracking systems)

Why This Role Works

This is a role for someone who likes:

• Fixing things instead of sitting at a desk

• Seeing the impact of your work immediately

• Learning how equipment actually works

• Being trusted to solve real problems

• Working in a team that values reliability and follow-through

Work Environment

You’ll work in a mix of office and production environments, including time on the manufacturing floor, yard, and receiving areas. The job involves working around equipment, forklifts, and moving materials.

• Frequent standing, walking, bending, and lifting

• Occasional lifting up to 50 lbs

• Some exposure to non-temperature-controlled areas

• Full-time schedule with occasional overtime based on production needs
