From PLCs (Programmable Logic Controllers) to hydraulics and pneumatics, you'll dive into a broader range of mechanical and electrical components. • Team Collaboration: You won't be flying solo. You'll work closely with other maintenance personnel and production teams. Together, you'll ensure our equipment stays in top shape. • Research and Cost Analysis: Remember comparing car parts and prices? Apply that skill here too! Research equipment needs, find competitive prices, and evaluate ongoing operational costs. Your insights will drive smart decisions. • Communication Matters: Just like explaining car issues to customers, you'll communicate effectively with colleagues, suppliers, and internal teams. Building trust is essential. • Blueprints and Schematics: Reading complex drawings? You've got this! Understanding schematics and layouts will be part of your toolkit. • Math and Metrics: Math skills? Check! Whether it's calculating measurements or understanding metric units, you'll use your math prowess. • Computer Savvy: You'll need to manipulate files in Windows. Don't worry; it's like navigating a new road-once you learn the route, it becomes second nature. So, if you're ready to shift gears (pun intended) and contribute to our manufacturing success, apply now! Your automotive expertise will be a valuable asset as you become a Mechanical Maintenance Technician. Let's keep the wheels turning!
