Job Description

Are You the One Who Keeps the Line Running?

Picture this: a conveyor slows unexpectedly. Do you think hydraulics, air supply, or a power transmission misalignment? If that question energizes you, step into a Plant Maintenance Mechanic role where your decisions keep a world-scale steel operation on track.

Your Mission
  • Install, maintain, diagnose, and repair mechanical systems—hydraulic, pneumatic, lubrication, and power transmission—plus conveyors, cranes, and related mobile equipment.
  • Use standard and specialty tools and operate pendant- controlled/overhead cranes and forklifts to complete precision maintenance.
  • Jump in to assist production operations when needed to protect throughput.
  • Handle tasks at elevation and, when required, in confined spaces while adhering to strict safety practices.
  • Shift between solo assignments and team efforts with other maintenance technicians.
  • Navigate multiple plant zones where conditions may be hot, cold, dirty, greasy, wet, and noisy.
What It Takes
  • High School Diploma or GED.
  • Pass required assessment test(s).
  • Minimum 1 year of manufacturing/industrial experience or equivalent education. Relevant exposure could include: hydraulic, pneumatic, lubrication, power transmission systems, welding, pipefitting, structural repair, or diesel mechanic (military experience counts).
  • Commitment to safety at all times, including wearing required PPE: hard hat, safety glasses, hearing protection, protective clothing, and boots with metatarsal protection.
How You’ll Work
  • 8-hour rotating shifts that include weekends and holidays.
  • Overtime as needed based on production demands.
  • Dependable attendance, punctuality, and self-motivation are non-negotiable.
Strengths We’re Looking For
  • Electrical Troubleshooting
  • Pneumatics Troubleshooting
  • Maintenance and Repair Skills
Why You’ll Thrive Here

Every fix you make reverberates through a heavy industrial operation. If you love complex machinery, tough challenges, and visible impact, this is your next move.
