About ALDI

ALDI is one of America's fastest-growing grocery retailers, operating more than 2,300 stores across 39 states and supporting that store network through a system of large-scale regional distribution centers. Founded in Germany in 1946 and first opened in the United States in 1976, ALDI built its entire business around a simple idea: run a lean, efficient operation and pass the savings directly to the customer. That same efficiency-first philosophy defines how our distribution centers operate — smaller, more capable teams; real cross-training instead of narrow, repetitive tasks; heavy investment in modern material handling and voice-directed technology; and wages built to attract and retain the strongest warehouse talent in every region we serve. ALDI's distribution network moves millions of cases of product every week, and every associate, operator, technician, and leader inside that network plays a direct role in keeping store shelves stocked for the millions of customers who shop with us.

Our Warehouse Team & Culture

Because ALDI runs a lean staffing model at every level of the business, warehouse team members are trusted with real responsibility from day one rather than being confined to a single narrow task for years. Safety, accuracy, and pace are treated as equally important — we invest in modern equipment, structured training, and a genuinely team-based floor culture where associates, operators, technicians, and leaders work side by side rather than in silos. ALDI also promotes heavily from within: a large share of our warehouse supervisors and distribution center managers started their ALDI careers on the warehouse floor.

What Our Team Says (Employee Reviews)

"The pay reflects the technical skill this role actually requires, which is not something I could say about my last maintenance job. ALDI also paid for my EPA 608 certification, which most warehouses will not do." - Current Warehouse Maintenance Technician, Greer, SC.

Role Overview

As an ALDI Warehouse Maintenance technician, you keep the material handling equipment, conveyor systems, refrigeration units, and building infrastructure that a high-volume distribution center depends on running reliably - diagnosing and repairing issues quickly to minimize any disruption to product flow.

Key Responsibilities

• Preventive Maintenance Program: Perform scheduled preventive maintenance on forklifts, conveyor systems, dock levelers, and dock doors according to the facility's maintenance calendar, documenting each service in the computerized maintenance management system.
• Equipment Troubleshooting & Repair: Diagnose and repair equipment breakdowns as they occur, prioritizing conveyor and dock equipment failures that halt product flow, and coordinating with outside vendors for repairs beyond in-house capability.
• Refrigeration & HVAC Support: Monitor and support the facility's refrigeration and HVAC systems, addressing temperature deviations in cooler or freezer zones promptly to protect product integrity and food safety compliance.
• Electrical & Mechanical Systems: Perform basic electrical and mechanical troubleshooting on conveyors, motors, and powered equipment, following lockout/tagout procedures on every repair before beginning work.
• Work Order & Parts Management: Document all completed repairs and preventive work through the maintenance management system, and maintain adequate stock of critical spare parts to minimize equipment downtime.

Qualifications & Requirements

• Technical or vocational training in industrial maintenance, electrical, or mechanical systems, or equivalent hands-on experience.
• Working knowledge of electrical, mechanical, hydraulic, and pneumatic systems commonly found in distribution center equipment.
• Experience with forklift or material handling equipment repair preferred.
• EPA 608 refrigeration certification a plus for facilities with on-site cooler and freezer systems.
• Comfortable using hand and power tools, diagnostic equipment, and computerized maintenance management systems.
• Ability to work at heights using ladders or lifts, and to lift up to 50 pounds as needed for repairs.
• Availability for on-call emergency repairs outside standard shift hours as needed.

Work Environment & Physical Requirements

This role splits time between the open warehouse floor, mechanical and electrical rooms, refrigeration equipment areas, and occasional work at height on ladders or lifts. Technicians work around active material handling equipment and must follow strict lockout/tagout and personal protective equipment procedures on every repair.

Compensation & Benefits

ALDI Warehouse Maintenance technicians earn a strong hourly wage that reflects the technical skill the role requires, along with paid time off, a 401(k) with company match, and full medical, dental, and vision benefits. ALDI also supports ongoing certification and technical training for maintenance team members.
