Job description

10 Hour Days - 6:30am-4:30pm Monday-Thursday

As a Machine Repair Technician, you’ll be a key hands-on problem solver responsible for keeping our manufacturing equipment and building systems operating at peak performance. This is an advanced, skilled maintenance role focused on diagnosing, repairing, and maintaining complex electrical, mechanical, pneumatic, and hydraulic systems across the plant.

If you enjoy variety, technical challenges, and being the person others rely on when equipment goes down, this role is for you.

What You’ll Do

• Troubleshoot and repair complex electrical systems, including power distribution, solid‑state controllers, press schematics, and safety systems
• Perform mechanical repairs on gear reducers, bearings, belts, pulleys, sprockets, clutches, and HVAC components
• Diagnose and repair hydraulic and pneumatic systems on presses, die cutters, lift tables, pallet trucks, and other production equipment
• Time, calibrate, and maintain feeders and presses; respond to mechanical breakdowns efficiently
• Troubleshoot HVAC systems, including burners, motors, blowers, and controls
• Perform preventive maintenance based on established schedules
• Estimate repair time, required parts, and costs
• Move, install, or modify equipment as manufacturing needs change
• Communicate clearly with teammates and across shifts to ensure smooth handoffs
• Follow all safety, environmental, and quality standards, stopping production when quality issues arise
• Use Serigraph’s ERP system and SPECS quality system to support documentation and compliance

You’ll Thrive Here If You

• Take ownership and accountability for results
• Speak up, ask questions, and close gaps
• Follow procedures while still thinking critically
• Enjoy troubleshooting, fixing problems, and improving systems
• Value teamwork, quality, and safety just as much as productivity

What We’re Looking For

Required

• High school diploma or equivalent
• Strong mechanical aptitude and troubleshooting skills
• Solid understanding of safety practices, housekeeping, and PPE
• Ability to follow procedures and work independently

Preferred

• 2+ years of maintenance experience in a manufacturing environment
• Experience with electrical, mechanical, hydraulic, and pneumatic systems
