About The Position

The Industrial Maintenance Mechanic II is a skilled maintenance professional responsible for independently performing preventive maintenance, corrective repairs, troubleshooting, equipment installations, and process improvements on manufacturing equipment and facility systems. This position plays a critical role in maximizing equipment reliability, minimizing production downtime, and supporting safe, efficient manufacturing operations. The Maintenance Mechanic II is expected to diagnose and repair mechanical, electrical, pneumatic, hydraulic, and electromechanical systems with minimal supervision. This position also supports equipment upgrades, new equipment installations, preventive maintenance optimization, and continuous improvement initiatives while maintaining compliance with Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP), OSHA regulations, and company safety standards. Unlike the Industrial Maintenance Apprentice – Level I, who works primarily under supervision while learning maintenance fundamentals, the Maintenance Mechanic II independently performs maintenance activities, solves complex equipment issues, and serves as a technical resource for less experienced mechanics.
