Job description

High-Volume Machine Uptime: Perform rapid troubleshooting and emergency repairs on
high-runner automated production lines to minimize cycle-time bottlenecks.

Preventive & Corrective Maintenance: Execute strict preventive maintenance
(PM) schedules to avoid breakdowns on high-speed automation equipment.

System Troubleshooting: Diagnose mechanical, electrical, pneumatic, hardware,
and PLC control system errors on the fly.

Automation & Vision Optimization: Calibrate and adjust sensors, robotic arms
(Pick-and-Place), conveyors, and automated vision systems.

Yield Recovery: Address repetitive machine jams, software version errors,
and physical component placement defects to keep high runner outputs steady.

Data Log & Documentation: Meticulously log downtime data, machine
failure modes, parts consumption, and yield metrics to support continuous
improvement.

Safety & 5’s: Strictly adhere to Lockout-Tagout (LOTO) protocols during
high-speed machine interventions, maintain zero-hazard automation
enclosures, and keep workstations meticulously organized to sustain
high-volume production flow.

Required Technical Skills & Competencies:

Automation Systems: Hands-on experience with Programmable Logic Controllers
(PLCs), Human-Machine Interfaces (HMIs), robotic arms, and smart
conveyors.

Hardware Diagnostics: Proficient in reading electrical schematics, pneumatic
circuits, and mechanical engineering drawings.

Vision & Smart Sensors: Ability to calibrate camera alignments, proximity
sensors, and barcode/QR scanners used in high-volume tracing.

Lean Manufacturing Mindset: Clear understanding of demand flow, cycle
times, and minimizing waste (Lean/5S) in mass-production setups.

Tool Proficiency: Skilled with precision hand tools, digital mustimeters,
and diagnostic measurement equipment.

Shift Flexibility: Willingness to work rotating shift schedules (day/night)
to support 24/7 high-volume factory operations

Documentation & Reporting

Handover Logs: Document all technical incidents, major breakdowns, parameters adjusted, and pending issues in the digital logbook to ensure smooth shift transitions.

Spare Parts Tracking: Record the usage of critical automation spares (e.g., replacement cylinders, sensors, motors) in the inventory management system to trigger replenishment.

Failure Mode Logging: Categorize and document repetitive faults (e.g., recurring feeder jams, vision errors) to assist engineering teams in Root Cause Analysis (RCA).
