Job description

Door & Dock Technician Warren, OhioKeep Critical Facility Systems Moving

Were looking for an experienced Door & Dock Technician to join a commercial and industrial facilities team in Warren, Ohio. This is a hands-on opportunity for a skilled technician who knows how to troubleshoot, repair, and maintain commercial doors, dock equipment, and related facility systems.

If youre mechanically inclined, safety-focused, and take pride in completing work correctly and keeping customers informed, this role offers the opportunity to put your skills to work in a dynamic industrial environment.

What Youll Do

Perform preventative maintenance, inspections, troubleshooting, and repairs on commercial and industrial dock and door equipment

Maintain and service dock levelers, dock seals, dock bumpers, dock locks, and related equipment

Maintain and repair automatic doors, overhead doors, hollow metal doors, locks, and commercial door hardware

Troubleshoot electrical components, power supplies, electronic controls, and door systems

Maintain pneumatic and hydraulic systems and perform basic mechanical repairs

Conduct regular equipment rounds to identify potential problems and document equipment performance

Inspect operating characteristics including pressure, vibration, speed, wear, and other equipment conditions

Perform routine maintenance including lubrication, greasing, filter changes, cleaning, and replacement of belts, hoses, and other components

Perform minor plumbing, electrical, carpentry, painting, patching, and general facility repairs as needed

Document completed work, findings, and recommendations in a computerized maintenance management system

Communicate clearly with customers, coworkers, contractors, and management regarding work status and completion

Assist with subcontractor coordination and provide guidance when needed

Follow OSHA requirements, lockout/tagout procedures, safety policies, and life-critical work practices

What You Bring

At least three years of experience servicing and maintaining commercial or industrial dock equipment and doors

Ability to use computers, smartphones, tablets, email, and computerized work order systems

Preferred Experience

AAADM certification

Experience with major commercial door and dock equipment manufacturers

Experience in an industrial or commercial facilities environment

Previous experience working with electronic door systems and automatic door equipment

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

This isnt a basic maintenance position. Youll become a key resource for keeping doors, docks, loading areas, and facility equipment operating safely and reliably. Youll have variety in your day, work with specialized equipment, and use your troubleshooting skills to solve real-world problems.

If youre the kind of technician who can walk up to a malfunctioning dock or door, figure out whats wrong, and get it back into service safely, we want to hear from you.
