Electro-Mechanical Reliability Technician
Job Description
Job Description Build Reliability Into Every Shift — Grand Rapids, MI (Direct Hire)
As an Electro-Mechanical Reliability Technician, you’ll keep a world-class manufacturing operation running at its best. Pro Services, Inc. is hiring directly for a leading global manufacturer with 130+ years of success. You’ll join a collaborative maintenance group that values mentorship, hands-on learning, and long-term career development.
A Day in Your 3rd-Shift World
At 6:00 PM, you start your round: review the CMMS for priority work orders, survey production lines, and listen for the telltale signs of wear in pumps, boilers, and chillers. You isolate issues safely using lockout/tagout, troubleshoot electrical faults across 120/208/240/480 VAC systems, swap a failing component, and bring a critical asset back online. Before sunrise, you’ve documented your work, collaborated on a root-cause fix, and queued up preventive tasks that reduce tomorrow’s downtime.

- Comfort with CMMS-driven preventive programs
- Team-first approach, solid work ethic, and eagerness to learn
Nice-to-Have Extras
