Job Description

Job Description

Step into the heartbeat of our distribution center

Imagine starting your shift with a quick handoff, then making a beeline to the conveyors where packages fly by at speed. You run diagnostics, tune a PLC, and calibrate a camera so scanners read perfectly. A belt stalls—within minutes you’ve traced the mechanical fault, fabricated a bracket, and welded it into place. Before lunch, you complete scheduled fire system tests and document every result. In the afternoon, you help set up AV and furniture for a town hall, then wrap the day by checking lighting, plumbing, and a few paint touch-ups around the facility. That’s a typical rhythm for our Electro-Mechanical Maintenance Technician.
