• Follow all established safety procedures, including lockout/tagout requirements
• Maintain a clean, organized, and safe work environment
• Assist with general manufacturing equipment and facility maintenance needs as required

Requirements

• Previous experience performing preventative maintenance in a CNC machining, machine tool, industrial maintenance, or manufacturing environment
• Working knowledge of CNC equipment such as mills, lathes, machining centers, or similar machine tools
• Strong mechanical aptitude and ability to identify equipment wear or developing mechanical issues
• Experience working with mechanical, hydraulic, pneumatic, lubrication, and coolant systems
• Basic electrical troubleshooting knowledge preferred
• Ability to safely use hand tools, power tools, measuring equipment, and maintenance-related equipment
• Ability to read and follow equipment manuals, preventative maintenance procedures, technical documentation, and maintenance schedules
• Experience with coolant systems, filtration equipment, chip conveyors, air compressors, mist collectors, chillers, or other machine-shop support equipment is highly preferred
• Strong attention to detail with a proactive, preventative approach to equipment maintenance
• Ability to document completed work and maintain organized maintenance records
• Ability to work independently while effectively communicating equipment concerns to production and leadership
• Strong commitment to workplace safety and proper lockout/tagout procedures
