Shape What’s Next in Stokesdale as an Industrial Maintenance Mechanic

Global in scope — human in scale. Owens Corning blends worldwide impact with local roots. Join our Stokesdale team and help keep our operations running safely and reliably.

A day in the life (2nd shift)

By 3 : 05 p.m., you’ve reviewed the maintenance log, prioritized an unplanned line stoppage, and teamed up with another tech to isolate an intermittent sensor fault. Later, you’re aligning a drive assembly with precision tools, updating PM checklists, and coaching a junior teammate through safe LOTO procedures. Safety stays first, paperwork is clean, and production hits the mark before 11 : 30 p.m.

Core responsibilities

• Support production operations and lead complex maintenance work; mentor junior technicians to elevate department capability.
• Use advanced and basic hand tools (e.g., gear pullers, honing / lapping tools, precision levels and alignment tools).
• Operate power tools and equipment (e.g., hydraulic power jacks, belt lacing machines, mag drills).
• Measure with basic to moderately advanced devices for accurate diagnostics and alignment.
• Drive a forklift and safely operate lifting equipment (hoists, boom cranes, cherry pickers, scissor lifts).
• Run standard shop equipment (bandsaw, hydraulic press, lathe, mill, brake / shear).
• Work in confined / tight spaces while following strict safety practices.
• Read and interpret mechanical schematics, wiring interconnect drawings, and service manuals.
• Troubleshoot motion control, electrical / electronic circuits, and sensors at a basic level.
• Apply broad facility / equipment maintenance knowledge (plumbing, electrical, construction, rigging, anchoring, cabinetry).
• Provide your own standard hand tools and a secure storage solution.
• Execute preventive maintenance (lubrication, adjustments / alignments, part repairs, safety and operational checks).
• Diagnose and repair complex manufacturing equipment with minimal supervision.
• Leverage proficiency in machining, welding, fabrication, or a related specialty trade.
• Service / overhaul components such as air / hydraulic cylinders and motors, valve assemblies, pumps, motion elements, and supporting subsystems.
• Rapidly prioritize outages and competing tasks while multitasking effectively.
• Analyze issues and resolve them with minimal assistance; complete documentation neatly and accurately.
• Lead projects / complex activities and train or mentor peers as needed.
• Put safety first on every task; follow company and OSHA guidelines.
• Adapt to various shifts and overtime with short notice to meet production needs.
• Work efficiently with little supervision and maintain a clean, organized workspace.
