- Troubleshoot and resolve mechanical, electrical, and process failures using strong analytical and diagnostic skills.
- Adjust, repair, and improve hydraulic, pneumatic, electrical, and mechanical systems.
- Provide technical guidance and mentorship to maintenance technicians.
- Foster a culture of proactive maintenance, problem-solving, and safety.
- Schedule, delegate, and execute maintenance tasks as a working manager.
- Enforce safety procedures, including lockout/tagout (LOTO), and ensure compliance with OSHA and NFPA standards.
- Conduct safety inspections and training.
- Maintain on-call availability for urgent maintenance needs.
Qualifications:
- Education: Associate's or Bachelor's degree in Mechanical, Electrical, or Industrial Engineering preferred; equivalent hands-on experience considered.
- Experience: 5+ years of hands-on maintenance experience in an injection molding or plastics manufacturing environment.
- Technical Skills:
- Proven ability to diagnose and repair hydraulic, pneumatic, mechanical, and electrical systems in injection molding equipment.
- Strong troubleshooting skills with various injection molding machines (e.g., Engel, Arburg, Nissei, Milacron).
- Experience with PLCs, robotic systems, chillers, dryers, conveyors, and compressors.
- Proficiency in reading and interpreting electrical schematics, hydraulic diagrams, and machine manuals.
- Process Improvement: Familiarity with Total Productive Maintenance (TPM), Lean Manufacturing, and Six Sigma principles (a plus).
- Physical Requirements: Ability to perform regular physical activity, including lifting, standing, and working with tools and machinery.
Benefits:
- Retirement Account: 401(k) with matching
- Health insurance
- Dental insurance
- Vision insurance
