Maintenance Mechanic – Keep Our Foundry Running Strong

Wisconsin Aluminum Foundry

Location: 838 S. 16th Street, Manitowoc, WI
Shift: Full-time |2nd shift Monday – Friday, 2 pm – 10 pm

You know that feeling when a machine roars back to life because you figured it out? When the crew gives you the nod because production’s running again—smooth, fast, and right? That’s what keeps our Maintenance Mechanics coming back every day.

At Wisconsin Aluminum Foundry, we’ve been pouring strength and craftsmanship into American manufacturing for over a century. Our foundry never stops moving, and neither do we. When the heat’s up and the pressure’s on, we rely on skilled problem-solvers who can think fast, work smart, and keep the heartbeat of our operation strong.

This isn’t a desk job. It’s hands-on, boots-on, wrench-in-hand work. You’ll be the person who keeps things running when others can’t—fixing, fine-tuning, and making sure our foundry never misses a beat.

What You’ll Be Doing:

• Jump in on emergency breakdowns to troubleshoot and repair mechanical, electrical, pneumatic, or hydraulic systems
• Keep our machines humming with routine preventative maintenance
• Handle installations, adjustments, and equipment upgrades
• Use your brain and your hands—reading work orders, following manuals, and using everything from wrenches to multimeters
• Work in an environment that’s hot, gritty, and filled with moving parts—just how you like it
• Support your crew and get the job done right the first time

What You Bring to the Table:

• A solid background in industrial maintenance—foundry experience is a big plus
• Mechanical and electrical troubleshooting chops
• The ability to work in tight spots, hot areas, and physically demanding situations
• Comfort working on ladders, with overhead tasks, and lifting up to 60 lbs
• A strong work ethic, common sense, and a team-first attitude

Perks:

• Weekly pay, union benefits, and job security in a company that’s been around for over a century
• $400 monthly childcare reimbursement
• Get paid for your skills – a new pay tier that won’t disappoint!

If want to do honest work with a solid team, this is your next move.
