  • Continuous Improvement: Collaborate with engineering to upgrade existing machinery, optimize automated cycles, and implement smart manufacturing solutions.
What You Bring to the Team

  • Experience: 3+ years of experience as an industrial electrician or maintenance technician in a manufacturing environment (plastics, chemical, or continuous-processing experience is a massive plus!).
  • Technical Chops: Deep understanding of electrical schematics, blueprints, and ladder logic.
  • Problem-Solving Mindset: The ability to look at a malfunctioning machine, think critically, and trace the root cause efficiently.
