Position Overview

Our client is seeking a skilled and self-motivated Maintenance Technician II to support maintenance operations within a fast-paced distribution center.

The Maintenance Technician II will be responsible for preventive and corrective maintenance, troubleshooting mechanical and electrical equipment, completing work orders and inspections, and helping maintain reliable operation of facility and material-handling equipment.

The ideal candidate is a hands-on maintenance professional who can independently diagnose problems, perform repairs, and take ownership of equipment reliability and uptime.

• Shift: 2:00 PM–10:30 PM
