Job Description

Overview:

We are seeking a Multi Craft Maintenance Technician to help keep our production operation running at a high level in a fast-paced manufacturing environment. This is a true multi-craft role—to be successful, you must be confident working across both mechanical and electrical disciplines, with strong troubleshooting instincts and the ability to work problems from symptoms to root cause.

In this role, you’ll respond to real-time breakdowns, perform critical repairs, and drive preventive work that protects uptime. You’ll also have meaningful ownership in a company that invests in its people, offering the chance to grow your skill set, expand your technical range, and help strengthen maintenance capabilities as the operation continues to scale and bring new equipment online. This is a polymer manufacturing environment, but we value strong industrial maintenance fundamentals and train the right people.

One major differentiator: 100% company-paid medical, dental, and vision insurance for you and your family, a direct reflection of how seriously this company supports and retains its team.
