This is a full-time Multi-Craft Maintenance Mechanic position that is responsible for preventative maintenance, troubleshooting and repair of facilities and equipment. Our entry level mechanics have a general understanding of electrical, pneumatic, hydraulic and mechanical systems and can contribute a unique skillset through the use of preventative maintenance and work order tracking. Maintenance Mechanics have the skill and flexibility to work on any equipment within the facility.

As part of the in-person interview, you will be asking to complete a hands-on electrical and mechanical skills test.

Before going any further, you should know that our Maintenance team is known for two critical areas of expertise:

Understanding of high-voltage wiring (480V 3-phase motors)
Industrial Electrical Components and troubleshooting
Understanding of Electrical Prints and Schematics
Identifying electrical symbols
Troubleshooting using electrical prints
Multi-craft maintenance and repair (e.g. performing interrelated repairs on electrical systems and mechanical systems)
Some fabrication (welding - Stick, MIG or TIG)
Are you comfortable, competent, and capable with multi-craft repair?

If you answered yes, our team would welcome your contributions to our daily operations. We asked our Maintenance Mechanics what we should tell you about your work day, and this is what they had to say:

You are willing to work under pressure to fix equipment
You will work urgently to get the equipment back up and running
You will be troubleshooting issues on a wide variety of equipment
You will conduct repair failures of production and facilities equipment
You will ensure maximum equipment efficiency, effectiveness, and reliability
Responding to maintenance calls is part of your job, and this can sometimes mean helping complete a repair that has already been started by the previous shift
You will inspect machines, develop repair lists and identify short-term and long-term repairs so that machines run efficiently

Please be sure that you meet the following minimum requirements for this position:

You are at least 18 years of age or older
You will be required to work on weekends and holidays
Ability to lift 15 to 50 pounds with or without a reasonable accommodation
You are able to stand and walk for extended periods of time with or without a reasonable accommodation
You are able to climb, bend, reach, stoop, kneel, and stretch for extended periods with or without a reasonable accommodation
You are willing and able to work in an environment that has extreme temperatures, humidity, hazardous/loud equipment, and slippery surfaces
Mechanics who are considering applying often ask us what characteristics our leadership looks for in this important position. This should give you an idea of what managers are seeking:

Customer Service: given our emphasis on mechanical aptitude, you might be surprised to see customer service listed here, but remember we interact with all levels of team members on the floor. It is important that you, and we as a team, treat all team members with the same level of service as we would our consumers.
Flexibility: you'll be switching gears, shifting priorities, and balancing task lists with calls for maintenance repairs. Flexibility - and keeping your cool - will allow you to both focus and prioritize your work.
Self-Starter: you will often find yourself working unsupervised, so taking ownership of your quality and speed of work is essential when conducting preventative maintenance or addressing equipment failure.
Safety Focused: your attention to company policies and procedures regarding safety will minimize risks to yourself, your team, and the quality of our products. Safety is everyone's job at Frito-Lay.

Although you will start out working for Frito-Lay, this job can open the door to career opportunities with our parent company, PepsiCo. We set industry standards in terms of pay and benefits. We also offer unbeatable benefits including health insurance, dental and vision, retirement saving benefits including a 401(k) with company contribution, vacation days and much more.

We hope you can imagine yourself on the team. Does this sound like you?

There will be tough days. When we experience downtime, we are working under pressure to fix equipment. We take it in stride because we believe, and our Maintenance Mechanics agree, that the rewards are worth it.

All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, protected veteran status, or disability status.
