Skilled Trades. Complex Equipment. Real Impact.

Ready to put your electro-mechanical skills to work on equipment that actually matters? As a Maintenance Technician, you'll keep the machinery running that produces some of the highest-quality aluminum coils in the Midwest  and you'll have the autonomy and variety that skilled tradespeople crave.

• Working safely in confined spaces and demanding industrial environments
• Following strict LOTO (Lockout/Tagout) and safety procedures at all times

• Ability to read and interpret blueprints and schematics
• Machining experience a plus
• Self-motivated with the ability to work independently and think fast in a dynamic environment
