Industrial Maintenance Technician — Packaging & Process Equipment

At KIK Consumer Products, we make and manufacture the brands people count on to keep homes and pools clean, sanitized, and safe. Join a high-performance, ethics-first culture where accountability, collaboration, and agility drive timely, fact-based decisions and flawless execution.

It’s 7:00 a.m. on 1st shift. After a quick safety huddle, you scan the day’s work orders and lock out a conveyor line to begin preventive maintenance. You inspect bearings, check VFD parameters, and lubricate gears. A call comes in: a hydraulic issue is slowing a palletizer. You diagnose, swap a faulty valve, and get the line running. Before lunch, you complete a line changeover and dial in the dilution system specs for the next product.

In the afternoon, you help Production and the Plant Manager assess a recurring fault, document the root cause, and return the area to perfect housekeeping. If production spikes, you’re ready for some OT.
