Build a Career with a Global Leader in Dairy
You're the person everyone calls when something isn't working and you wouldn't have it any other way.
At FrieslandCampina, our Maintenance Technicians are the problem-solvers who keep our plant running. When production depends on equipment performing at its best, you're the one who can diagnose the issue, make the repair, and get things moving again.
We're looking for experienced maintenance professionals who enjoy troubleshooting, thinking on their feet, and taking pride in fixing equipment the right way, not just the quickest way.
If you've built your career maintaining equipment in food, dairy, beverage, or another manufacturing environment, we'd love to talk with you.

Your day could include:

Repairing and maintaining production equipment and facility systems.
Performing preventative maintenance to help prevent breakdowns before they happen.
Replacing motors, pumps, bearings, conveyors, valves, gearboxes, and other production equipment.
Reading blueprints, equipment manuals, and electrical schematics.
Working closely with Production to quickly diagnose and resolve equipment issues.
Completing maintenance work orders and documenting repairs.
Helping identify ways to improve equipment reliability and plant efficiency.
Maintaining a clean, organized, and safe work environment.
Following all food safety, quality, and workplace safety requirements.

Strong troubleshooting and problem-solving skills.
It’d be even better if you have:
Experience in food, dairy, beverage, or ingredient manufacturing.
Industrial electrical troubleshooting experience.
Experience working with PLC-controlled equipment.
Welding and fabrication experience.
Technical degree, apprenticeship, or skilled trades certification.
Experience working in GMP or food manufacturing environments.
Who Thrives in This Role?

Like finding the root cause, not just the quick fix.
Take pride in quality workmanship.
Think ahead to prevent future problems.
Enjoy working with Production, Engineering, and their fellow Maintenance teammates.
Put safety first in everything they do.
Never stop learning.

Work around moving machinery, electrical systems, compressed air, and food processing equipment.
Use hand tools, power tools, and precision measuring equipment.
