Help build & maintain the most advanced wire manufacturing operation in North America.
At Accel International, we don't believe maintenance is about fixing broken equipment.
We believe it's about preventing failure before it happens, improving every machine we touch, and creating a manufacturing operation that competitors simply can't match.
If you're the type of technician who enjoys troubleshooting difficult problems, takes pride in precision work, and wants to be part of a company investing heavily in world-class manufacturing technology, we want to meet you.
Accel International manufactures high-performance conductors used in aerospace, medical, telecommunications, defense, and other critical industries. Our technology powers applications where quality isn't optional—and neither are the people who maintain the equipment that makes it possible.
With state-of-the-art facilities in Connecticut, Indiana, and Florida, we're continuing to grow, invest, and raise the standard for American manufacturing.
