Overall Purpose: Why the Job Exists & What You Will Do:
The Maintenance 8 (Multi-Craft Maintenance) position exists to ensure continuous, safe, and efficient operation of production equipment, CNC machinery, facilities, and support systems. This role provides advanced multi-craft technical expertise across mechanical, electrical, hydraulic, pneumatic, CNC, and facility systems while also developing, modifying, and troubleshooting CNC programs used in manufacturing operations. In addition, this position serves as a critical technical link between Engineering and Manufacturing, translating engineering designs, drawings, and intent into functional, reliable, and production-ready machine programs and processes.
Essential Job Functions & Expected Outcomes: Your Accountabilities in the Role
Essential Job Functions
• Diagnose, maintain, and repair complex production equipment and facility systems across mechanical, electrical (12–480V), hydraulic, pneumatic, and CNC platforms. • Write, modify, and troubleshoot CNC programs to support manufacturing operations and equipment reliability. • Serve as a technical interface between Engineering and Manufacturing, translating designs and specifications into production-ready machine programs and processes. • Execute and optimize preventative maintenance strategies to ensure equipment reliability and asset longevity. • Lead response to critical equipment failures, determining safe, cost-effective corrective actions with minimal supervision. • Install, relocate, and commission production equipment and support systems. • Coordinate maintenance materials, spare parts, vendors, and contractors to support timely and effective repairs. • Maintain accurate maintenance, safety, and compliance documentation while supporting on-call and emergency response requirements. Expected Outcomes
• Production equipment and facilities operate safely, reliably, and within required performance standards. • Unplanned downtime is minimized through effective troubleshooting, CNC program reliability, and preventative maintenance execution. • Engineering designs are consistently converted into manufacturable, production-ready machine programs and processes. • Equipment failures are resolved quickly with solutions that balance safety, cost, and long-term reliability. • Preventative maintenance activities are completed on schedule and adapted based on equipment condition and performance trends. • CNC-related issues do not impede production quality, throughput, or startup timelines. • Maintenance costs and spare parts availability are controlled to support continuous production. • Maintenance activities meet safety, environmental, and regulatory requirements with complete and accurate documentation.
