Job Description

The Ketchup Experts need an Equipment Expert

Since 1905, The Fremont Company has been the Ketchup Experts, a family-owned company making the ketchup, sauces, and condiments families reach for every day. Every bottle starts on a production line, and every line needs a maintenance pro who keeps it moving. On third shift in Rockford, that pro is you.

When a filler jams or a conveyor stops at 2 a.m., you're the one who gets the ketchup flowing again. You diagnose it, fix it, and keep production rolling. At Fremont, we Feed the World Like Family, and that takes equipment that works.

Why Ketchup Experts Love It Here

• Competitive pay plus a $0.50/hour shift differential
• Medical, dental, and vision insurance
• 401(k) with company match
• Paid time off and paid holidays
• 120 years strong, family-owned, and built to last
• A team that respects your skills and has your back

What a Ketchup Expert Tackles

• Keep fillers, cappers, labelers, conveyors, and kettles running at full speed
• Troubleshoot mechanical, electrical, pneumatic, hydraulic, and PLC issues
• Get breakdowns fixed fast so the ketchup never stops
• Run preventive maintenance that stops problems before they start
• Find ways to make the line run better, not just keep it going
• Work safely every time with LOTO, GMP, and food safety standards

The Secret Sauce (What You Bring)

• 2+ years of industrial maintenance experience (food or packaging a plus)
• Electrical, mechanical, and PLC troubleshooting skills
• Ability to read schematics and blueprints
• Confidence to work independently and make the call
• Your own tools (bonus points)

Schedule: Third shift, 10:00 pm - 6:00 am M-F

Location: 150 Hickory St., Rockford, OH 45882
