What You Will Be Doing

Lead major repairs and overhauls of critical equipment, such as high-capacity high-shear mixers, and chemical transfer pumps, ensuring minimal disruption to production schedules.
Rebuild or refurbish complex components, such as gearbox assemblies, hydraulic actuators, or electrical control panels, using precision tools.
Address equipment failures caused by abrasive materials or chemical exposure ensuring compatibility with process-specific requirements.
Diagnose complex mechanical, electrical, and hydraulic issues using advanced diagnostic tools to identify root causes of failures.
Troubleshoot process-specific issues, such as inconsistent product output, equipment misalignments, or viscosity variations in wood stain formulations, collaborating with quality control to meet product specifications.
Analyze system interdependencies (e.g., pump-motor alignment, sensor feedback loops) to resolve issues in automated packaging lines.
Develop and implement comprehensive preventive maintenance schedules for critical equipment, using predictive maintenance techniques (e.g., oil analysis, vibration trending) to reduce unplanned downtime and extend equipment lifespan.
Optimize maintenance intervals based on equipment usage, wear patterns, and production demands, ensuring minimal impact on production.
Maintain detailed maintenance plans in computerized maintenance management systems (CMMS) to track performance and schedule tasks.
Lead continuous improvement projects that result in implementing equipment upgrades or modifications to increase throughput.
Collaborate with engineering and production teams to adjust process parameters (e.g., mixer RPM, pump flow rates) to achieve consistent product quality.
Apply lean maintenance principles to streamline workflows, reduce waste, and improve equipment reliability in alignment with Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP).
Train and mentor Level 1 and Level 2 Maintenance Technicians on advanced maintenance techniques, diagnostic tool usage, and safety protocols, fostering skill development and team cohesion.
Conduct hands-on training sessions on topics such as hydraulic system maintenance, vacuum system troubleshooting, or proper handling of hazardous materials.
Provide performance feedback and develop individualized training plans to support junior technicians’ career progression.
Liaise with external vendors and service providers for specialized repairs, such as equipment optimization or refurbishment of high-capacity packaging system (Pro Sys), ensuring cost-effective and timely solutions.
Evaluate vendor proposals and negotiate contracts for parts procurement, prioritizing chemical-compatible components (e.g., corrosion-resistant seals, solvent-resistant gaskets).
Verify vendor work quality and compliance with safety and environmental…
