Job Description

About the Role GWI is seeking a skilled, hands-on Maintenance Technician / Production Technician to keep our facility running safely and efficiently. This is a hybrid role with a primary focus on maintenance — roughly 75% of your time will be spent maintaining, troubleshooting, and repairing equipment, facilities, and systems, with the remaining time supporting production operations. This is an ideal fit for a technically strong, self-motivated problem-solver who is as comfortable diagnosing an electrical fault or welding a bracket as they are jumping in to keep a production line moving. If you take pride in fixing things right the first time and enjoy variety in your workday, we want to hear from you. Key Responsibilities Maintenance (Primary — ~75%) Perform preventive, predictive, and corrective maintenance on production equipment, machinery, and facility systems. Diagnose and repair mechanical, electrical, pneumatic, and hydraulic issues to minimize downtime. Read and interpret blueprints, schematics, technical manuals, and equipment specifications. Complete general facility maintenance and construction tasks, including carpentry, plumbing, drywall, framing, and structural repairs. Operate hand tools, power tools, and shop equipment safely and effectively. Perform welding, fabrication, and metalworking as needed for repairs and improvements. Maintain accurate maintenance logs, work orders, and records. Identify and recommend equipment upgrades, process improvements, and cost-saving opportunities. Ensure all work complies with safety standards, OSHA regulations, and company policies. Snow removal, landscaping maintenance. Production (Secondary — ~25%) Support production operations by setting up, operating, and monitoring equipment. Step in to maintain throughput and meet production targets during peak demand or staffing gaps. Communicate equipment issues and downtime to the production team promptly. Help maintain a clean, organized, and safe work area (5S / housekeeping). Required Qualifications High school diploma or GED (technical/trade certification preferred). 2+ years of hands-on maintenance, industrial repair, or skilled-trades experience. Strong technical and mechanical aptitude with proven troubleshooting ability. Demonstrated maintenance and construction skills (electrical, plumbing, carpentry, fabrication, etc.). Ability to read and work from blueprints, schematics, and technical documentation. Proficiency with hand tools, power tools, and diagnostic equipment. Solid understanding of workplace safety practices and lockout/tagout (LOTO) procedures. Able to work independently, prioritize tasks, and adapt to shifting demands. Reliable, detail-oriented, and a strong communicator. Preferred Qualifications Trade certification or completed apprenticeship (electrical, HVAC, millwright, machinist, welding, etc.). Experience in a manufacturing or production environment. Chemistry experience or degree. Forklift or aerial lift certification. Physical Requirements Ability to lift and carry up to 50 lbs regularly. Comfortable standing, walking, bending, kneeling, climbing, and working at heights for extended periods. Able to work in varying conditions (heat, cold, noise, dust) and around moving machinery. Manual dexterity and good hand-eye coordination. Must be willing to respond to emergencies outside of normal business hours. What We Offer Competitive pay based on experience and skill set.
