Be the force behind reliable lines and quality beverages
If solving tough technical problems energizes you, you’ll feel at home at Mark Anthony Brewing’s new Columbia, SC facility. As our Packaging Line Reliability Technician (Brewery), you’ll protect uptime, elevate safety, and enable our teams to meet ambitious production goals.
Imagine this scenario
A line trips on a nuisance fault mid-run. You arrive with PPE on, verify lockout/tagout as required, read the P&ID, and trace the signal path through a PLC input card. You find a sensor cable compromised near a conveyor guard, repair it, validate operation, and tune the VFD to stabilize speed. Before you leave, you log work details and parts used in the CMMS, note the root cause, and recommend a guard modification. You brief the incoming shift, escalate a related risk to your supervisor, and partner with the lead to update the SOP. That’s a win for safety, quality, and uptime.
