Overview
We’re seeking a skilled Multi-Craft Maintenance Technician to support a consumer packaged goods manufacturer operating high-speed filling, bottling, labeling, and packaging lines. The facility runs a mix of modern, sensor-dense, servo-driven automation alongside supporting mechanical systems, requiring technicians who are comfortable working inside electrically and electronically complex equipment.
This role is best suited for a technician with a strong electrical and electronics troubleshooting foundation, someone who can confidently diagnose sensor faults, motion issues, control-related failures, and automation-driven downtime. While all multi-craft backgrounds are welcome, hands-on experience with high-speed, automated packaging equipment is highly preferred.
You’ll work across electrical distribution, controls, instrumentation, servos, robotics, pneumatics, and supporting mechanical systems to keep production lines running safely and reliably.

Requirements
Responsibilities
- Electrical & Electronics Troubleshooting: Diagnose and repair issues involving sensors, photo-eyes, proximity switches, encoders, VFDs, servos, safety circuits, relays, and control panels across high-speed production lines.
- Automation & Motion Systems Support: Troubleshoot servo-driven filling, bottling, labeling, cartoning, and packaging equipment; support pick-and-place systems, automated transfers, and palletizing cells.
- Instrumentation & Vision Systems: Maintain, adjust, and calibrate sensors, level controls, checkweighers, vision inspection systems, and quality-verification devices used for fill accuracy, label placement, and product presence.
- Mechanical Equipment Maintenance: Support mechanical repairs as needed, including conveyors, gearboxes, pumps, fillers, cappers, and packaging mechanisms that interface with automated systems.
- Pneumatic Systems: Troubleshoot valves, cylinders, regulators, air manifolds, and air-driven actuators commonly used in filling and packaging machinery.
- Preventive & Predictive Maintenance: Execute PMs focused on electrical inspections, sensor alignment, cable integrity, motion component health, lubrication, and wear-item replacement to minimize unplanned downtime.
- Root Cause Analysis: Independently investigate recurring electrical or automation-related issues, identify failure patterns, and implement long-term corrective actions without routine engineering escalation.
Qualifications
Required
- Experience: 3+ years of hands-on industrial maintenance experience in a manufacturing environment
- Electrical & Electronics Skills: Strong troubleshooting capability with 24V–480V systems, sensors, motors, drives, servos, relays, wiring, and control panels
- Automation Exposure: Experience working on automated or semi-automated production equipment utilizing sensors, motion control, and high-speed sequences
- Schematics & Documentation: Ability to read electrical prints, wiring diagrams, and control schematics
- Troubleshooting Mindset: Independent problem-solver capable of diagnosing issues on the floor and restoring equipment to operation efficiently
Preferred
- High-Speed Packaging Experience: Background supporting filling, bottling, labeling, cartoning, or packaging lines in CPG, food, beverage, or similar industries
- Controls & PLCs: Allen-Bradley / Rockwell systems (ControlLogix, CompactLogix); PLC I/O and fault diagnostics; minor logic edits a plus
- Robotics & Motion: Experience with servo-driven systems, pick-and-place units, palletizers, or robotic packaging cells
- Instrumentation & Vision: Hands-on experience with inspection cameras, checkweighers, level controls, or other inline quality systems
- CMMS: Familiarity with digital maintenance tracking systems
