Maintenance workforce
The largest share of what we fill, and the roles a plant feels fastest when they are open. Multi-craft techs, mechanics, and electricians.
Production. Skilled trades. Maintenance.
Embedded maintenance, trades, and production crews on Helion's payroll, run by specialists in your industry. Six checks on every contractor before you see them.
Four industries, each with its own team.
Your requisition goes to our experts who already know the floor you run.
- Industrial Metals Mills, service centers, and fabrication. Melt shops, tube lines, galvanizing, structural and building systems.
- Food & Beverage Processing, packaging, and cold chain. High-volume consumer manufacturing under audit.
- Industrial & Automotive Tier 1 and Tier 2 suppliers, extrusion, wire and cable, lighting, powertrain and chassis components.
- Consumer & Defense Paper, corrugated, containers, packaging converting, industrial components, and aerospace and defense suppliers.
Six things we verify before you see anyone.
We built the six checks from what actually ends placements: the wrong shift, a commute that fails in week six, a reference no one called. Every submittal clears all six.
-
Title
They have held this exact job, and we ask what the shift involved.
-
Tenure
How long they stayed, and why they left.
-
Pay
Their number and your rate are in the same range before anyone talks.
-
Shift
They have worked this shift and will work it again.
-
Commute
The drive is one they will still make in week six.
-
Reference
A supervisor who managed them, contacted and confirmed.
Six checks. Every candidate. No exceptions.
Your opening is looked at every morning.
Every open requisition is reviewed by its vertical team each working morning, on a board built from live data.
Each req runs on a three-day clock. Day three it is flagged as stuck. Day four a Vertical Director steps in and changes the approach.

What we deliver
Four workforce lines, each staffed by the vertical team that owns your industry.
Skilled trades crews
Time-served trades with a ticket and a track record. Welders on every shift, fitters, machinists, and the tool and die trades on your floor.
Production workforce
The operators and support staff who keep material moving, and the supervisors and planners over them, staffed to the shift pattern your plant runs.
Plant engineering support
Plant-side controls, process, reliability, and mechanical engineers on contract, for launches, upgrades, and shutdown projects.
How plants engage us
- Ongoing coverage
Maintenance, trades, and production coverage on your shift pattern for as long as the plant needs it. Backfills and added headcount.
- Launch and ramp crews
Crews staffed to a build schedule: a new line, a launch, or a volume ramp with a date the customer will not move. Headcount set by the curve.
- Project and shutdown support
Technicians, trades, and engineers for a defined window: a shutdown, a controls upgrade, a capital project, or a changeover.
