Job DescriptionFacilities Equipment Reliability Technician (Industrial Electrical)

Join our mission

Keep our Maryland Heights operation running flawlessly. You’ll safeguard uptime, prevent failures before they start, and elevate reliability across our equipment and facility systems. If you’re energized by complex machinery and confident working with industrial electrical and mechanical systems, this role is built for you.

Imagine this

You start your shift with a safety check, PPE on, and a plan to tackle preventive inspections. A conveyor shows early signs of wear—your diagnostics catch it, your repair prevents a shutdown, and your notes help the team improve the maintenance schedule. Next, you jump into a facility improvement project, collaborating with teammates to fine-tune a pneumatic circuit and optimize performance.

  • Execute routine maintenance on machinery and facility systems
  • Diagnose and repair mechanical issues, including conveyors, motors, hydraulics, and pneumatics
  • Perform regular inspections to identify potential failures
  • Participate in and support facility improvement projects
  • Maintain thorough and accurate maintenance records

Qualifications

  • Proven experience as a Maintenance Technician; minimum 2 years in a high-speed industrial environment
  • Strong electrical background preferred; certifications in mechanical systems and industrial electrical are highly desired (not required)
  • Ability to read blueprints, schematics, diagrams, and sketches
  • Experience with corrugation machines is a plus
  • Proficiency using hand tools, power tools, welders, and torches
  • Works well independently and within a team; detail-oriented and a strong problem solver

All employees must follow all safety rules and procedures and watch out for self and team member’s safety at all times. Always use personal protective equipment (safety glasses, ear plugs, steel toed shoes & safety vest, others as required). We expect everyone to understand and carry out housekeeping standards.

Our team is friendly and productive; we prioritize teamwork and resolving issues effectively and professionally.
