  • Starting Base Rate: $30.00 - $40.00/hour (Determined by industrial experience).
  • Automation Skill Premium: Up to an additional $2.00/hour added directly to your base for proven PLC troubleshooting, diagnostics, or automation platform proficiency.
  • Shift Premium: +$2.00/hour for designated off shifts.
Why Join Lakeside Book Company?
  • Exceptional Stability: Our maintenance department boasts an annual turnover rate of under 5%. Technicians choose Lakeside for long-term career security, a supportive team culture, and an environment free from high-burnout automotive assembly lines.
  • Earn More for Your Expertise: We value advanced skill sets. Our tiered pay structure allows you to maximize your hourly rate through verified PLC and automation competencies.
  • Invested in Your Growth: Want to advance your craft? We provide company-funded technical training and certifications for high-demand platforms like Allen-Bradley/Rockwell Automation.

  • Technical Skills: Strong competency in reading schematics, using multi-meters, and diagnosing industrial control panels.
  • Automation (Highly Preferred): Experience connecting to and troubleshooting via PLCs (Studio 5000 / RSLogix) pushes you directly into our senior wage tiers.
  • Credentials: A formal Journeyman card or an Associate Degree in Electrical Technology is highly valued, but equivalent multi-year industrial work history is fully accepted.
  • Schedule: Ability to work a 3-shift rotation and 12-hour shifts.
Benefits & Perks
  • Comprehensive health, dental, and vision insurance plan options.
  • 401(k) retirement plan with an aggressive company match.
  • Generous paid time off (PTO) and paid holidays.
