- Maintain spare parts strategy and vendor relationships to minimize downtime
- Identify reliability risks and lead continuous improvement initiatives that boost up time and safety
- Support capital planning by identifying equipment upgrades and helping build business cases
- Maintain accurate asset tracking and ensure strong work-order planning and execution
What makes you successful here
- Strong electrical and mechanical troubleshooting skills in an industrial manufacturing environment
- Ability to read electrical, pneumatic, and mechanical schematics confidently
- Experience with PLC troubleshooting, industrial wiring, drives, motors, and power distribution
- Knowledge of safety standards including LOTO, Arc Flash, PPE, and applicable electrical codes
- Leadership mindset - able to prioritize work, coordinate technicians, and communicate effectively across production, engineering, and vendors
- Comfortable using Microsoft Office and maintenance systems to manage workflow and reporting
What you bring
- 8+ years of industrial maintenance experience (electrical and controls exp. required)
- Prior supervisory or maintenance leadership experience required
- Technical training in electrical, hydraulic, or pneumatic systems is needed
- Plastics or extrusion manufacturing experience helpful but not required
- Professionals must have experience in a manufacturing production setting
