Engineering Technician

Responsibilities:

1. Technical Maintenance & Troubleshooting
   System Diagnostics: Use multimeters, oscilloscopes, and signal generators to diagnose faults in electronic circuits and control boards.
   Component Repair: Repair or replace defective components such as sensors (photoelectric, inductive), relays, timers, and switches.
   PLC & HMI Support: Perform basic troubleshooting on Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) and Human-Machine Interfaces (HMIs) to resolve logic errors or communication gaps.
   Calibration: Regularly calibrate temperature probes, weighing scales, and pressure transducers to ensure product consistency and regulatory compliance.
2. Preventive Maintenance (PM)
   Scheduled Checks: Execute the PM program for all electronic control panels, ensuring they are free of dust, moisture, and loose connections.
   Software Backups: Maintain up-to-date backups of machine parameters and PLC programs.
   Battery Replacement: Monitor and replace internal memory batteries in controllers to prevent data loss during power cycles.
3. Production Support & Safety
   Emergency Response: Provide immediate technical support during "Line Down" situations to minimize production loss.
   Food Safety (GMP): Ensure all repairs meet food safety standards (e.g., ensuring no exposed wires, using food-grade sealants where applicable, and cleaning tools after work).
   Safety Interlocks: Test and maintain emergency stop buttons, light curtains, and safety interlocks on packaging and processing equipment.
4. Documentation & Inventory
   Work Logs: Accurate recording of all repairs, parts used, and time spent in the Computerized Maintenance Management System (CMMS).
   Schematic Management: Keep technical drawings and circuit diagrams updated after any authorized modifications.
   Spare Parts: Monitor the inventory of critical electronic components (e.g., fuses, specialized cables, sensors) and initiate reorders.

Qualifications:

Education: Graduate of Electronics Technology, Instrumentation, or a related technical course.

Skills:
Ability to read schematic diagrams and technical manuals.
Proficiency in using multimeters and other tools for electronics and the like
Basic understanding of PLC logic and sensor calibration (temperature, pressure, flow).
Experience: Minimum 1 year in a manufacturing environment; specifically handling electronic repair and maintenance.
Certification: Preferred RA 7836 (Electronics Technician license) or TESDA NC II in Mechatronics/Electronics.

Technical Knowledge: Strong grasp of AC/DC circuits, digital electronics, and industrial automation.

Physical Ability: Able to work in tight spaces (inside machine frames) and stand for long shifts.

Environment: Comfortable working in varying conditions (wash-down areas, cold storage, or high-heat processing zones).

Pay: Php18,000.00 - Php25,000.00 per month

Benefits:

• Employee discount
• Promotion to permanent employee
• Staff meals provided

Work Location: In person
