Trillium is seeking a Machine Repair Technician/Operator in Fairfield!
This Direct-Hire opportunity is seeking a mechanically inclined technician to join a growing manufacturing team. In this hands-on role, you will tear into manual lathes and mills, track down what’s wrong, and put them back in service, learning the trade from the inside out. This is an entry-level opportunity with real room for advancement as your skills grow.
If you have spent time fixing tractors, turning wrenches on your own car, rebuilding transmissions, working as an auto mechanic, or tinkering with industrial machinery, you have exactly the kind of foundation this role is built on. What matters most here is simple: attendance and productivity are critical, and the people who show up and produce are the ones who will advance in this opportunity.
Responsibiliites:
- Take apart manual lathes and mills to diagnose failures and repair or swap out worn and broken parts, including gears and bearings
- Stay ahead of breakdowns by performing scheduled preventive maintenance across the shop’s machinery
- Trace electrical faults, pinpoint the bad components, and replace them
- Document all work performed in the maintenance log
- Read equipment drawings and manuals to identify the right spare parts, then coordinate with purchasing to get them ordered
- Get the work done safely while working independently, with little day-to-day supervision
- Jump in on the production floor as an operator/machinist whenever maintenance work is caught up
Schedule is 1st shift / Monday - Friday, 7 AM to 3:30 PM. Pay rate is $20 to $24 per hour DOE, with the possibility of quarterly profit sharing.
