Industrial Maintenance Mechanic, Automation & Controls
Location:
Battle Creek, MI Reports to:
Maintenance Supervisor
Base Pay Range:
$28.00/hr - $39.00/hr
Picture your first hour on shift: you review preventive maintenance tickets, then a production line calls—an automated cell has gone down. You arrive with safety top‑of‑mind, lock out what you must, and safely troubleshoot a live electrical panel to isolate the fault. An Allen‑Bradley ControlLogix tweak and a quick PanelView update later, the line is running. Before lunch you jump into a Kaizen huddle, and later in the day you perform PMs on servo‑driven equipment and inspect pneumatics and hydraulics to keep uptime high.
What You’ll Do
Diagnose and repair mechanical, electrical, electronic, pneumatic, and hydraulic issues on manufacturing equipment.
Execute preventive maintenance on production assets to maximize reliability.
Safely troubleshoot live electrical panels and high‑voltage systems (120/208/240/480 VAC).
Contribute to problem‑solving groups, Kaizens, and lean manufacturing initiatives; support maintenance KPIs.
Continuously learn processes including thermal forming, adhesive and molding operations, isocyanate foam, high‑pressure water cutting, and assembly.
Operate powered industrial trucks, aerial lifts, and cranes as needed.
Edit and modify programs on programmable devices (Allen‑Bradley platforms such as SLC‑500, ControlLogix, PanelView, and PanelView Plus).
What You Bring
3+ years of maintenance experience in a manufacturing environment, including 3+ years supporting automated machinery.
Strong mechanical aptitude with the ability to read machine drawings and control schematics.
Hands‑on experience with machining tools, powered hand tools, and standard maintenance equipment.
Willingness to work overtime as needed and support any production shift; overtime beyond 40 hours is an essential function of this role.
Plus factors: robotic systems experience (Fanuc, Motoman, ABB), an electrical journeyman card, TPM exposure, and use of smart cameras (Keyence, Cognex, Banner).
Proficiencies We Value
Heavy equipment repair and mechanical troubleshooting.
Electrical installation, troubleshooting, and repair across low and high‑voltage systems.
Pneumatics troubleshooting and machine safety inspections.
Working knowledge of servo motors and motion systems.
