Job Description

🔧 First Shift Maintenance Technician (Food Manufacturing) 🥓

Are you the kind of person who can hear a machine make a weird noise from across the plant and already know what’s wrong? Do you love fixing things, keeping operations humming, and being the hero behind the scenes?

If so, we’ve got a spot for you.

🕒 Schedule

First Shift – because sleep matters and so does your work-life balance.

💰 Pay & Perks

• $25–$35/hour (DOE)
• $1.50/hour weekly attendance bonus – yep, just for showing up on time and doing your thing 💪
• Stable, growing company in the food manufacturing space
• Team that actually values maintenance (no band-aid fixes here)

🔧 What You’ll Be Doing

• Keep production running smoothly by troubleshooting and repairing equipment
• Perform preventative maintenance (because you fix problems before they happen)
• Work on conveyors, processing equipment, packaging lines, and more
• Partner with production to minimize downtime and maximize efficiency
• Help improve processes—not just patch them up

🥩 What We’re Looking For

• Food manufacturing experience REQUIRED
• Meat processing experience = big bonus points
• Strong mechanical and electrical troubleshooting skills
• Ability to think on your feet and stay calm under pressure
• Someone dependable (you like that attendance bonus, right?)

💥 Why This Role?

You won’t just be “the maintenance person.” You’ll be a key player in keeping a fast-paced operation running smoothly, safely, and efficiently. Plus—you get rewarded just for being reliable. Not a bad deal.
