Position Overview

Pronto is a rapidly growing dietary supplement manufacturer specializing in high-quality powder and capsule formulations. We are looking for a gritty, all-in Electro-Mechanical Technician who thrives on the production floor. If you prefer sitting behind a desk, this isn't the role for you. We need a roll-up-your-sleeves problem solver who takes extreme ownership of our supplement manufacturing equipment.

Reporting directly to the Head of Manufacturing, you will be the absolute go-to person for keeping our production moving safely and efficiently. You will act as a first responder to equipment breakdowns, execute strict maintenance programs, and constantly look for ways to enhance reliability and uptime while ensuring compliance with cGMP and FDA standards.

• Encapsulation & Packaging Mastery: Perform preventative and corrective maintenance specifically focused on encapsulation (NJP-3800, Syntagon, Bosh, etc.), blending, and packaging equipment.
• Equipment Installation & Validation: Assist with facility improvement projects, equipment installations, and take charge of validating new machines.
• Calibration & Precision: Calibrate precision scales, ingredient-dosing systems, and other production machinery to ensure absolute accuracy and regulatory compliance.
• Compliance & Safety: Maintain rigorous maintenance logs and documentation. Strictly follow Lockout/Tagout (LOTO) procedures, company safety policies, and cGMP/FDA regulations.
• All-In Collaboration: Work closely with Production, Quality, and Operations teams to support daily manufacturing goals and minimize downtime.

Required Qualifications

• Education: High school diploma or equivalent.
• Core Experience: Minimum of 5 years of experience in industrial maintenance, electro-mechanical repair, or manufacturing equipment maintenance.
• Specialized Experience: Minimum of 3 years of experience working specifically with encapsulation machines (such as NJP-3800, Syntagon, Bosh, etc.).
• Technical Chops: Ability to read and interpret electrical schematics, blueprints, and technical manuals. Proven ability to validate new machines.
• Floor-First Attitude: Strong problem-solving, organizational, and communication skills with the ability to prioritize tasks independently in a fast-paced environment.
• Physical Requirements: Ability to lift up to 50 pounds, work on your feet, and navigate tight spaces in a manufacturing environment while wearing required personal protective equipment (PPE).

Preferred Qualifications

• Associate degree in Electrical Technology, Mechatronics, Industrial Maintenance, or a related field.
• Knowledge of PLCs, variable frequency drives (VFDs), or industrial automation systems.
• Experience working in dietary supplements, food manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, or other regulated cleanroom/controlled manufacturing environments.
• Experience with continuous improvement initiatives.

Compensation & Benefits

• Competitive salary based on experience.
• Comprehensive health insurance.
• 401(k) plan eligibility.
• 2 weeks of paid vacation annually.
• 7 paid holidays annually.
• A stable, clean, and climate-controlled manufacturing environment.
