Industrial Maintenance Mechanic & Material Flow Technician

Picture your shift: you start by checking the preventive maintenance queue in our maintenance software, ensuring today’s top-priority equipment is ready to run. An alert comes in—an assembly fixture is down. You diagnose the issue, swap a sensor, verify the error-proofing, and record the repair. Between calls, you tidy the maintenance area, track spare parts, and coordinate a larger repair with leadership. Later, you jump on a forklift to stage materials to a work cell, clear finished goods, and help unload a truck so production never misses a beat.
