• Inspect and analyze defective components to identify root causes and implement effective corrective actions 
• Perform preventative maintenance activities to maximize equipment reliability and minimize downtime 
• Troubleshoot pneumatic systems, electrical machinery, and related production equipment 
• Respond to equipment issues and maintenance requests to support manufacturing operations and production schedules 
• Perform assigned repairs and document maintenance activities, including spare parts usage and equipment history 
• Maintain detailed logs of equipment issues, corrective actions, and resolutions for future reference and analysis 
• Support process improvement projects and team initiatives that enhance equipment performance and operational efficiency 
• Utilize diagnostic and test equipment to evaluate system performance and identify maintenance needs 
• Communicate equipment concerns and maintenance recommendations to team members and leadership for follow-up actions

Why Join Us?

You'll play a critical role in supporting the equipment and systems that keep our manufacturing operations running. This position offers opportunities to expand your technical skills, participate in improvement initiatives, and work alongside a team committed to operational excellence, safety, and quality.

If you're a hands-on technician with strong troubleshooting abilities and a passion for keeping equipment performing at its best, we'd like to connect.
