We are seeking a Technical Operator dedicated to operating, maintaining, and optimizing automated production equipment through autonomous maintenance practices. This role emphasizes proactive care--cleaning, lubrication, inspection, and minor adjustments--to ensure equipment reliability and minimize downtime. While basic troubleshooting is required, the primary focus is to use continuous improvement to maintain the production equipment to sustain a world-class operational standard.
Job Duties: * Adhere to safety protocols and safety maps to perform minor interventions and/or lockout/tagout. * Operate, maintain, and optimize automated machinery to ensure smooth production workflows. * Perform autonomous maintenance tasks such as cleaning, inspection, lubrication, and centerlining. * Perform visual inspections to detect abnormalities and prevent failures/downtime. * Conduct routine operational checks and ensure machines are ready for start-up and shut-down. * Monitor equipment performance and identify early signs of wear or abnormal conditions. * Train newer or less technical operators how to properly operate and maintain the equipment. * Participate in root cause analysis for recurring issues and collaborate with maintenance teams for corrective actions. * Assist in new equipment installation, testing, and commissioning to ensure proper autonomous maintenance standards are established. * Maintain accurate logs of machine performance, downtime, and maintenance interventions. * Participate in continuous improvement projects to enhance equipment reliability and reduce unplanned downtime. * Collaborate with engineering and maintenance teams for system upgrades, calibration, and modifications. | |
