Beloit, Wisconsin, United States Frito Lay Full time

Seeking an experienced Equipment Maintenance Specialist to join our team at Frito-Lay. As a key member of our maintenance team, you will be responsible for troubleshooting, repairing, and installing pneumatic and hydraulic systems, control valves, centrifugal and positive displacement pumps. You will also be responsible for troubleshooting and repairing AC/DC electrical systems, reading schematics, and using electrical testing equipment (Volt-Ohm meter, amp meter, oscilloscope).



Our ideal candidate will have extensive knowledge of Programmable Logic Controls and be able to contribute a unique skillset through the use of preventative maintenance systems and work order tracking. You will be able to work on any equipment within the facility and operate lathes, mills, arc and Heliarc welders for repair, and fabrication. You will also be required to assist entry-level mechanics with difficult repairs, work under pressure to fix equipment, and urgently get equipment back up and running. Additionally, you will be responsible for troubleshooting issues on a wide variety of equipment, conducting repair failures of production and facilities equipment, ensuring maximum equipment efficiency, effectiveness, and reliability, and responding to maintenance calls. You will also inspect machines, develop repair lists, and identify short-term and long-term repairs to ensure machines run correctly. You will work from task lists when diagnosing machines and taking corrective actions. Professional insight and knowledge of the operation of our equipment will enable you to understand problems and take action to resolve issues. Do you have an electrical certification, maintenance manufacturing experience, technical school training, or welding experience? If so, you are likely well-equipped to join the team. We have a robust training program that can benefit you provided that you have a proven base knowledge of mechanical maintenance repair (especially with regard to electrical repair multi-craft repairs). Although it's not required, many managers prefer that candidates have at least two years' training experience in mechanical/electrical repair in a manufacturing environment. 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.


We hope you can imagine yourself on the team. Our salary range for this position is $60,000 - $80,000 per year, depending on experience. Benefits include health insurance, dental and vision, retirement saving benefits including a 401(k) with company contribution, vacation days, and much more. Please note that work will vary from day to day depending on need and your hours will vary by assigned location. It also gets loud and the Frito-Lay manufacturing facilities are large. While we want everyone to feel comfortable, our ability to control the temperature in our warehouses is limited. Indoor warehouse working conditions are impacted by seasons and the weather. We set industry standards in terms of pay and benefits, and this job can open the door to career opportunities with our parent company, PepsiCo. So if you're looking for a challenging and rewarding role in maintenance, we encourage you to apply.
