  • Foster a culture of proactive maintenance, problem-solving, and safety.
  • Schedule, delegate, and execute maintenance tasks as a working manager.

  • Conduct safety inspections and training.
  • Maintain on-call availability for urgent maintenance needs.

Qualifications:

  • 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.
