Maintanece Technician

Are You Tired of Feeling Like Just Another Cog in the Machine?

What if your next role actually meant something — to your team, to your company, and to your future?

Maintenance Technician (2nd Shift)

📍 Momence, IL | 💼 Full-Time | $25.11–$40.26/hour
🕒 4:55 PM – 5:05 AM | Rotating Shift | Overtime based on production needs

❓Does this sound familiar?

• You’re the go-to problem solver — but no one’s investing in your growth.

• You’ve mastered complex electrical or mechanical systems — but no one’s listening to your ideas.

• You take pride in your work — but the culture around you feels transactional.

If you’ve said yes to any of this, you’re not alone. But you do have options.

🧭 What If Your Work Actually Mattered?

At Johnsonville’s Momence plant, we don’t hire clock-punchers. We hire members — people who care, who think, who build. This is not just maintenance. It’s uptime strategy. It’s pride in performance. It’s ownership.

You’ll be responsible for the systems that keep our product — and our people — moving. You’ll troubleshoot. You’ll lead small-scale innovations. You’ll help modernize a legacy of excellence that reaches millions.

And you’ll do it with teammates who value skill, respect effort, and care about your future.

💡 Why This Role? Why Now?

Because we’re growing. Fast.
Because innovation needs people behind the machines who get it.
Because great work deserves more than a paycheck — it deserves a career path.

🔧 What You’ll Do

• Solve electrical, mechanical, and control system challenges across production and utility equipment

• Lead and execute preventative maintenance to minimize downtime

• Partner with engineers and teammates to drive machine upgrades

• Own SAP data input to strengthen our maintenance strategies

• Support capital projects, layout changes, and installations

• Hold the line on safety, quality, and detail — always

✅ What You Bring (or Are Ready to Build)

• High school diploma or equivalent

• Electrical Journeyman card (or equivalent experience) preferred

• AC/DC systems, safety circuits, relay logic, PLC understanding

• Familiarity with control panels, VFDs, sensors, and automation

• Comfort using SAP (or eagerness to learn)

• Ability to lift 60 lbs, work in varied temperatures, and pass drug/background checks

Whether you’ve got 10 years under your belt or you’re an up-and-comer with the right mindset — we’re open.

🧠 What Sets You Apart Isn’t Just Skill — It’s Mindset

• You think like an owner.

• You don’t wait for direction — you bring solutions.

• You believe in high standards, not shortcuts.

• You’re coachable, curious, and committed to being better than yesterday.

This isn’t for everyone. And that’s the point.

🌱 The Culture You’re Joining

Johnsonville is privately held, family-led, and purpose-driven.
We call our people members — because when you join us, you’re not just working for a company. You’re helping build it.

We invest in training, mentorship, leadership development, and upward mobility — not just because it’s good business, but because it’s the right thing to do.

🎯 Still Not Sure? Ask Yourself:

• Would it be ridiculous to consider working somewhere that actually recognizes your value?

• Is it crazy to want teammates who have your back and leaders who have your future in mind?

• Could this be the moment to stop “getting by” and start leveling up?
