Job Description

SMV Recruiting is partnering with a well-established manufacturing organization on a confidential search for an Maintenance & Machine Technician to support a highly automated production operation.

About the Role:
This is a hands-on machine operation and maintenance-focused role supporting a highly automated production line. This position is ideal for someone with industrial equipment experience who wants to build long-term skills in mechanical and electrical troubleshooting within a stable, growth-oriented environment.

There is no dedicated on-site maintenance team, so this role plays a critical part in keeping equipment running.

This role includes a structured training path and long-term advancement opportunities.

Responsibilities:

  • Operate and monitor automated production equipment

  • Troubleshoot mechanical and electrical issues on industrial machinery

  • Perform scheduled and unscheduled maintenance on machines and tooling

  • Adjust machine settings to maintain quality and production standards

  • Support equipment startups, shutdowns, and changeovers

  • Perform routine inspections and document production and quality checks

  • Use hand tools, measuring tools, and basic electrical testing equipment

  • Maintain a clean, safe work area and follow all safety and PPE requirements

Requirements:

  • High school diploma or equivalent

  • Forklift experience required

  • Prior experience operating industrial equipment or machinery

  • Strong mechanical aptitude with basic electrical troubleshooting ability

  • Ability to follow standard operating procedures and production schedules

  • Ability to meet physical job requirements, including standing and lifting up to 40 lbs
