You will diagnose equipment issues using software tools and test instruments, perform preventive maintenance, coordinate repairs and machine downtime with production, requisition parts, and document and communicate across shifts. A safety-first mindset (including lockout/tagout compliance), high-quality workmanship, strong housekeeping, and reliability with overtime and occasional shift coverage are essential.

• Adhere to lockout/tagout procedures; stay current on plant safety requirements; actively participate in department and plant safety meetings.
• Install conduit, wiring, and equipment with a high level of craftsmanship and professionalism.

• Diagnose production equipment issues using computer skills, software tools, and test instruments.
• Maintain and troubleshoot combustion systems, including gas trains, automatic control valves, and other gas-fired equipment.
• Understand, maintain, and repair process control loops.
• Assess equipment condition; plan and coordinate repairs and machine downtime with production leadership.
• Proactively requisition parts and materials to support continuous plant operations.
• Perform preventive maintenance as scheduled and as needed; document work performed.
• Communicate maintenance issues across shifts to ensure continuity of operations; read and record notes in Maintenance and Production logbooks.
• Maintain a safe, clean, and organized work area; ensure tools, equipment, and supplies are properly stored throughout the shift and before breaks, meals, and end-of-day.
• Demonstrate reliability by arriving on time and working required hours, including mandatory overtime; provide occasional shift coverage as needed.
• Perform other duties and projects as assigned.
• Drive the highest levels of employee retention and engagement to ensure a sustainable workforce.
• Foster a culture of innovation, collaboration, and accountability within the organization.
• Instill an environment of inclusion, where all employees feel that they can contribute and impact the company in a positive manner.

Experience

• Minimum of five (5) years of maintenance experience with mechanical equipment in a heavy industrial environment.
