The posting

Taher is seeking an experienced, hands-on Lead Maintenance Technician to support the safe, reliable, and efficient operation of production equipment and facilities at the Plymouth Culinary Center and Great Northern Baking Company.

This position serves as a working technical leader for the maintenance team. The Lead Maintenance Technician performs complex troubleshooting and repairs, helps coordinate daily maintenance priorities, provides technical guidance to other technicians, and supports preventive maintenance activities across both facilities.

This role is designed for an experienced maintenance professional who enjoys working directly with equipment while helping other technicians develop their skills. The position partners with the Plant Manager on maintenance priorities rather than independently managing the entire maintenance department.

Essential Responsibilities

Equipment Maintenance & Reliability

  • Diagnose, troubleshoot, maintain, and repair food-manufacturing, bakery, packaging, and related production equipment.
  • Troubleshoot mechanical systems, HMIs and basic controls, low-voltage electrical systems, plumbing, HVAC, and other facility systems within the technician's qualifications.
  • Respond quickly and safely to equipment failures to minimize production downtime.
  • Identify recurring equipment problems and recommend practical corrective actions.
  • Perform preventive maintenance and equipment inspections.
  • Maintain accurate maintenance records and work-order documentation.
  • Support the use and continued development of MaintainX or another computerized maintenance management system (CMMS).

Technical Leadership

  • Help organize and prioritize the maintenance team's daily workload.
  • Provide hands-on troubleshooting assistance to maintenance technicians.
  • Train and mentor technicians in equipment repair, troubleshooting, preventive maintenance, and maintenance best practices.
  • Lead by example through active participation in maintenance work.
  • Encourage teamwork, accountability, communication, and consistent maintenance practices across shifts and facilities.

Facility & Vendor Support

  • Provide maintenance support at both the Plymouth Culinary Center and Great Northern Baking Company.
  • Identify situations requiring specialized outside expertise and coordinate with approved service providers.
  • Communicate parts requirements, recurring equipment issues, facility needs, and potential improvements to the Plant Manager.
  • Assist with equipment installations and facility improvement projects as assigned.

Safety & Compliance

  • Follow and reinforce established lockout/tagout procedures.
  • Ensure proper machine guarding and safe maintenance practices.
  • Follow applicable electrical and equipment safety requirements.
  • Support facility food-safety and sanitation requirements.
  • Identify hazards and promptly communicate safety concerns to management.

Required Qualifications

  • At least five years of industrial or manufacturing maintenance experience.
