ABOUT KLASSEN

Klassen is a family company built over generations — rooted in hard work, innovation, and a commitment to create value that lasts. Since 1963, we’ve grown from a single truck and a local mission into a trusted supplier and transportation partner across 40 states and provinces.

We believe great companies are built through understanding — understanding our customers, our products, and our people. That’s why we invest in craftsmanship, reliable service, and the team members who make it all happen. From soils and mulches to bedding products and agricultural materials, we transform wood residuals into dependable solutions that support the work and lives of our customers.

If you want to be part of a company where people matter, quality matters, and your work makes a difference — welcome to Klassen.

ABOUT THE ROLE

We’re looking for a Millwright who wants to own a real maintenance program — preventive, not just reactive. At our Redmond, OR production site, you’ll be responsible for keeping all plant systems running: production and packaging lines, baling equipment, conveyance, hydraulics, pneumatics, dust collection, and building systems. This is a solo maintenance role — you have real ownership over the program, the schedule, and how problems get solved.

You’ll work an early shift, 4:00AM to 12:30PM, so you’re back home before most of the workday has even started. Your manager will know your name, and when something comes up, someone picks up the phone. If you want to build something that lasts — a formal preventive maintenance program in a growing company — this is the role for it.

PAY & SCHEDULE

• $33–$38/hour, depending on experience
• Effective earnings approximately $35–$46/hr with profit sharing; illustrative $72,000–$95,000/year
• Job type: Full-time, Permanent

WHAT WE OFFER

• Full benefits — dental, life, pharmaceutical, vision, chiropractor, massage, EAP and more — 100% employer-paid
• Long-term stability with year-round steady work
• Your manager knows your name — you’re supported, not managed from a distance
• Opportunities for career growth and cross-training

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

• Maintain all plant systems — production and packaging lines, baling equipment, conveyance, hydraulics, pneumatics dust collection, and building systems — in safe, reliable operating condition
• Diagnose root cause on breakdowns and restore equipment to full production capability
• Execute the preventive maintenance schedule so failures are prevented rather than reacted to

Maintenance Documentation & Records

• Document every work order, repair, and PM task — what failed, what was done, and what parts were used
• Maintain accurate equipment history, PM schedules, manuals, and drawings so the site has a reliable maintenance record
• Use documented failure history to identify recurring problems and drive permanent fixes

Parts Ordering & Spares Management

• Identify, specify, and order parts and materials required for repairs, PMs, and projects
• Maintain critical spare parts on hand so high-risk failures don’t stop production while waiting on supply
• Coordinate with vendors and the Plant Manager on pricing, lead times, and purchase approvals

Project Development & On-Time Delivery

• Scope, plan, and execute maintenance and equipment improvement projects from start to finish
• Deliver committed project milestones on schedule, coordinating downtime windows with the Plant Manager
• Commission completed work, confirm equipment performs to specification, and hand off with full documentation

Safety, Compliance & Quality

• Follow and reinforce lockout/tagout, confined space, hot work, and all OSHA requirements on every job
• Report and investigate incidents and near misses; complete corrective actions on equipment promptly
• Keep equipment calibrated so product output holds consistent quality and spec

REQUIREMENTS

• Proven hands‑on experience maintaining industrial plant systems: mechanical, hydraulic, pneumatic, and material‑handling equipment
• Experience with production or packaging line maintenance, baling equipment, conveyors, or dust collection is a strong asset
• Trained and experienced in lockout/tagout, confined space entry, and hot work safety protocols
• Comfortable working independently — this is a solo maintenance role requiring self‑direction and ownership
• Reliable transportation to the Redmond, OR site

WHO WE ARE LOOKING FOR

• Self‑directed and accountable — you own your program, set your own PM schedule, and don’t need to be managed to do it right
• Someone who treats a breakdown as a data point, not just a fix — you diagnose root cause and drive permanent solutions
• Technically sharp with a broad mechanical skillset — comfortable across systems, not just one trade
• A communicator — you document your work, report to your Plant Manager proactively, and keep the record accurate
• Looking for a long‑term opportunity with a stable, growing company — not a short‑term or transitional position

Every day, our team lives The Klassen Promise: to Create Value and Lead the Market, with Quality as our edge. If that’s how you approach your work — maintaining every system like you own it, doing it right, and taking pride in the finish — we want to hear from you.

Klassen Group Inc. is an equal‑opportunity employer. We welcome applications from all qualified candidates and are committed to a workplace free from discrimination.
