Job Title: Maintenance Technician

Job Description

As a Maintenance Technician, you will play a critical role in the production area, primarily responsible for addressing and resolving mechanical and electrical issues, predominantly caused by operator errors. Your tasks will range from simple adjustments, like fixing a misaligned knife, to complex machine disassemblies. You'll handle repairs involving photo-eyes, sensors, gears, motor boxes, vfd's, servo drives, and pumps, all operated via HMI touch screens controlled by Allen Bradley PLC's. Expect to spend your time equally between mechanical and electrical repairs, along with TIG/MIG welding on stainless steel and custom fabrication work. Your role is crucial during the start and end of the production week in the kitchen area, where most issues arise, and on Saturdays for scheduled preventive maintenance. The position also involves managing new automated equipment installations, such as packaging and shrink wrapping machines.
