About The Position

The Industrial Maintenance Supervisor leads the maintenance function for a high-volume garage door manufacturing facility, with primary responsibility for keeping automated production equipment — including PLC- and motion-controlled roll forming lines, pneumatic systems, and associated mechanisms — running safely and reliably, and secondary responsibility for building and grounds upkeep.

Working knowledge of PLC-based control systems — Allen-Bradley (Studio 5000 / RSLogix) and Trio motion controllers.
Ability to troubleshoot electrical systems to the component level: motor controls, VFDs, sensors, relays, and control wiring.
Solid mechanical aptitude with pneumatic and mechanical drive systems (chains, belts, bearings, gearboxes).
Ability to read electrical schematics, pneumatic diagrams, and equipment manuals.
Practical, resourceful problem-solver who can fabricate a fix or fixture when a stock part isn't available.
Prompt, reliable attendance and the ability to respond to off-hours equipment issues as needed.
Ability to effectively communicate in English, both orally and in writing.
