Work will vary from day to day depending on need and your hours will vary. It also gets loud in production. While we want everyone to feel comfortable, our ability to control the temperature in our warehouses is limited.
Before going any further, you should know that our maintenance team is known for two critical areas of expertise: multi-craft maintenance and repair (e.g. performing interrelated repairs on electrical systems and mechanical systems).
Are you comfortable, competent, and capable with high-voltage wiring and multi-craft repair? If you answered yes, our team would welcome your contributions to our daily operations.
Professional insight and knowledge of the operation of our equipment will enable you to understand problems and take action to resolve issues. If so, you are likely well-equipped to join the team.
Our training program can benefit you provided that you have a proven base knowledge of mechanical maintenance repair (especially with regard to electrical repair/multi-craft repairs).

- You are willing and able to work in an environment that has extreme temperatures, hazardous/loud equipment, and slippery surfaces.
Mechanics who are considering applying often ask us what characteristics our leadership looks for in this important position. This should give you an idea of what managers are seeking:
- Customer Service: given our emphasis on mechanical aptitude, you might be surprised to see customer service listed here, but remember we interact with all levels of team members on the floor. It is important that you, and we as a team, treat all team members with the same level of service as we would our consumers.
- Flexibility: you'll be switching gears, shifting priorities, and balancing task lists with calls for maintenance repairs. Flexibility - and keeping your cool - will allow you to both focus and prioritize your work.
- Self-Starter: you will often find yourself working unsupervised, so taking ownership of your quality and speed of work is essential when conducting preventative maintenance or addressing equipment failure.
- Safety Focused: your attention to company policies and procedures regarding safety will minimize risks to yourself, your team, and the quality of our products. Safety is everyone's job.
We hope you can imagine yourself on the team. Does this sound like you?
There will be tough days. When we experience downtime, we are working under pressure to fix equipment. We take it in stride because we believe, and our maintenance mechanics agree, that the rewards are worth it.
Benefits
We offer great benefits including health, dental and vision insurance, 401(k) retirement savings plan , PTO days and much more.
