About the Opportunity

We are seeking an experienced Maintenance Technician for a defined contract supporting an established manufacturing operation through its final phase of production. This is an ideal opportunity for a skilled technician who enjoys hands-on troubleshooting, automation exposure, and seeing a facility through to completion.

• Troubleshoot and modify CNC equipment as required
• Ensure all safety systems, lockout/tagout procedures, and standards are strictly followed
• Maintain organized work areas in line with 5S principles
• Communicate clearly with production and technical leadership on equipment status

What We’re Looking For

• 3–5 years of maintenance experience in an industrial or manufacturing environment
• Strong electrical and mechanical troubleshooting skills
• Hands-on experience with PLCs and industrial robotics (Fanuc an asset)
• Ability to work independently with minimal supervision
• Strong communication skills and a safety-first mindset
• Own basic tools

Assets (Not Required)

• Beckhoff PLC experience
• CNC lathe experience
• Robot operation or programming (Fanuc, ABB, Panasonic)
• Industrial networking knowledge (EtherNet/IP, EtherCAT)
• Experience with mills, lathes, and grinders

Why This Role Makes Sense
