Multicraft Industrial Maintenance Technician (Electro-Mechanical)

Frito-Lay•Kathleen, GA

About The Position

Bring complex machinery back to life—every shift. Step into a fast-paced manufacturing environment where your electro‑mechanical expertise keeps production moving. In this full-time role, you’ll diagnose and repair pneumatic and hydraulic systems, control valves, and both centrifugal and positive displacement pumps. You’ll also troubleshoot AC/DC electrical systems, interpret schematics, and verify your findings with a Volt‑Ohm meter, ammeter, and oscilloscope. Your solid understanding of PLCs, preventive maintenance programs, and work order tracking will help you prioritize and resolve issues quickly. You’ll move fluidly between disciplines—from high‑voltage (480V, 3‑phase) electrical work to precision mechanical repairs. On any given day, you might machine a part on a lathe or mill, perform arc and Heliarc® (TIG) welding for a fabrication fix, then mentor an entry-level mechanic through a tricky diagnostic. Expect variety: the facility is large, the work can be loud, and temperatures can fluctuate with the seasons.
