• Take part in failure investigations with Operations, Quality, and Engineering.
• Flag critical spare parts gaps, obsolete components, and parts quality issues to the Maintenance Manager.
• Coach Technician I team members on technique, safety, and documentation.
• Teach operators what to watch for on their equipment, what they can fix themselves, and when to call maintenance.
• Provide clear shift handoffs on open issues, temporary repairs, and equipment being monitored.
• Follow lockout/tagout, confined space, elevated work, GMP, allergen, and food safety requirements at all times.
• Assist with additional duties as assigned.
