With the need to find new green ways to power the future, there's never been a better time to celebrate the benefits of renewable solutions. Renewable fuels help clean up the environment by reducing toxic emissions and strengthen our number one industry-agriculture-by creating demand for the crops and livestock our farm families grow. Renewable diesel represents an additional opportunity to use locally sourced corn oils, soybean oils, and animal fats to produce clean fuels for our nation's energy supply.
Basic Purpose: The Maintenance Mechanic is responsible for maintaining the reliability and efficiency of plant equipment by performing preventive, predictive, and corrective maintenance. This role supports continuous operations by troubleshooting, repairing, and replacing mechanical and limited electrical components across a variety of industrial systems, including motors, hydraulic and pneumatic systems, and production machinery.
Job Functions:
  • Perform preventative, predictive, and reactive industrial maintenance activities throughout the facility, with limited direction.

  • Troubleshoot equipment failures and complete repairs to restore safe and reliable operation.
  • Document completed work, findings, and equipment conditions using a computerized maintenance management system (CMMS).
  • Collaborate with peers and management to support continuous improvement initiatives.
  • Once trained, operate forklifts, loaders, scissor lifts, and aerial lifts in accordance with safety policies and operating procedures.
  • Follow all facility safety policies and procedures, including safe work permits and job hazard assessments.
  • Maintain a clean, organized, and safe work environment.
  • Perform other duties as assigned.

Qualifications:
  • 3 years of experience in mechanic or similar role in an industrial setting
  • Be prepared to perform the essential duties of the role, which may involve working in an industrial environment with loud noise, operating or working near rotating, heavy, or other machinery, exposure to extreme temperatures, dust, working at heights, entering confined spaces, and potential chemical or atmospheric hazards that necessitate the use of appropriate personal protective equipment, including respirators.
  • Requires ability to perform physical tasks including frequent walking, standing for extended periods of time, climbing ladders or stairs, and lifting or carrying items weighing up to 40 lbs.
  • Ability to understand and communicate in English (verbal/written)
  • Basic computer skills, including the ability to document work electronically.
  • Ability to work overtime including holidays, nights, weekends, or different shifts with advance notice
  • Demonstrate experience in 1 or 2 maintenance trades and components (ex. gearbox and bearing maintenance, lubrication, pumps and piping systems, mechanical maintenance, and hydraulic or pneumatic systems).
  • Eligible to work in the United States without sponsorship
  • Must possess a valid Driver's License
  • Must be 18 years or older

Preferred Qualifications:
  • Experience with precision maintenance techniques such as laser alignment and dial indication.
  • Experience using SAP or equivalent ERP/CMMS systems.
  • Experience performing rigging activities.
