You’re the guardian of reliable production. With a blend of mechanical, electrical, and hydraulic skills, you’ll troubleshoot, repair, and set up die casting equipment so every run delivers parts that meet exacting standards.

How You’ll Contribute

Picture stepping to a press that’s trending out of control limits. You pull the latest control charts, interpret the data, and make targeted process or equipment adjustments that bring parts back into specification. Then you pivot to a scheduled PM, followed by a quick bench operation to restore a fixture—keeping the line moving and quality intact.

• Intermediate troubleshooting capability across mechanical, electrical, and hydraulic systems.
• Effective teamwork, interpersonal, and communication skills.
• Computer literacy for data review and documentation.
• Ability to operate a forklift.
• Fluent in English and in the primary language used in your area of responsibility and/or location.
