Job description
Direct Hire • Minneapolis Area • Employee‑Owned Plastics Manufacturer

Picture your day: you arrive at a clean, ISO 9001:2015 certified facility that has supplied precision plastic and flexible‑material parts to OEMs in powersports, marine, agriculture, heavy truck, medical, and industrial markets since the 1950s. You grab your tools, sync up with a seasoned maintenance lead who knows every press and router by heart, and together you keep production humming.

Why this role exists now

The long‑tenured maintenance lead is ready to share hard‑won knowledge and is looking for a reliable partner—especially for the more physical aspects of the work. You won’t be tossed in cold; you’ll receive hands‑on training, learn the quirks of each machine, and grow into a go‑to problem solver for the team.

What you’ll tackle in a typical week
  • Diagnose and repair hydraulic, pneumatic, mechanical, and electrical production equipment to minimize downtime.
  • Execute scheduled preventive maintenance across thermoforming, die cutting, CNC routing, and plastic fabrication assets.
  • Use hand tools, bench tools, and welding equipment to restore function and enhance machine reliability.
  • Fabricate or modify parts and mechanisms to resolve recurring issues and upgrade legacy equipment.
  • Interpret blueprints and wiring schematics to troubleshoot efficiently and safely.
  • Maintain a clean, organized, and safe work area; proactively identify and address safety concerns.
  • Document work and communicate clearly across shifts to ensure seamless handoffs.
  • Contribute to cost savings, quality improvements, and productivity initiatives; provide technical support and informal training as needed.
What you bring
  • High school diploma or equivalent.
  • Post‑secondary mechanic training or equivalent hands‑on maintenance experience.
  • Comfort across mechanical, electrical, hydraulic, and pneumatic systems.
  • Welding experience and proficiency with common hand and bench tools.
  • Ability to read and apply blueprints and wiring diagrams.
  • Growth mindset—eager to keep building skills over time.
Physical demands
  • Standing, walking, lifting, and bending throughout an 8‑hour shift.
  • Lifting up to 40 pounds.
  • Good manual dexterity.
What sets this opportunity apart
  • Direct hire from day one—no temp‑to‑hire period.
  • Approximately $35/hour, depending on experience.
  • On‑the‑job mentorship from a highly experienced maintenance lead.
  • Stable, employee‑owned company with 70+ years of steady growth and a reputation for quality and on‑time delivery.
  • A small, tight‑knit crew that works hard and enjoys the craft.
About the manufacturer

An established, ISO 9001:2015 certified custom producer of precision plastic and flexible‑material components, serving OEMs across multiple industries. Capabilities include thermoforming, die cutting, CNC routing, and plastic fabrication. Large enough to deliver—small enough to care.
