Senior Electromechanical Maintenance Specialist - Packaging & Filling Lines

Join Paket Corporation as a Senior Electromechanical Maintenance Specialist

Picture your morning: a quick huddle on the floor, a glance at the PM dashboard, and the first production line spins up. A sensor blinks, a pump chatters—within moments, you’ve diagnosed the issue, swapped a component, and the line is humming again. That’s the rhythm of impact in this role: keep production moving, elevate equipment reliability, and help shape the way we build and run our lines.

What you will lead day-to-day

• Own uptime: Quickly diagnose and resolve equipment failures with the clear priority of keeping packaging and filling lines operational.
• Set up and reassemble production assets: Perform line changeovers, troubleshooting, repairs, and full mechanical rebuilds as needed.
• Be hands-on across trades: Fabricate, assemble, weld, burn, and cut; remove/replace motors, fuses, and cables; install conduit and pull wire.
• Run a tight PM program: Execute preventive maintenance and record activities to ensure traceability and repeatability.
• Commission and improve: Assist in installing new manufacturing equipment and contribute to machine and process design for new and existing lines using continuous improvement principles.
• Standardize and optimize: Improve and implement SOPs, line layouts, and plant design to drive efficiency and consistency.
• Compliance and readiness: Help maintain PM logbooks, keep the tool crib stocked, and support compliance with 21 CFR 210/211 for OTC manufacturing and OSHA requirements.
• Facilities support: Assist with building systems including boilers, air handling units, and HVAC equipment.
• Document for replication: Create setup sheets and forms so settings can be repeated across campaigns with consistent results.
• Tech literacy: Read and apply equipment manuals to ensure proper operation and maintenance.
• Procurement touchpoints: Generate purchase requisitions for parts and inventory when required.
• Be the go-to resource: Provide maintenance insights, answer questions, and be available outside normal hours for urgent issues like alarms or security malfunctions.

About you

• Education: High school diploma or GED.
• Experience: 2–5+ years in a manufacturing setting with familiarity with GMPs.
• Schedule flexibility: Able to work beyond standard hours as needed. First shift runs 6 AM–2 PM; second shift runs 2 PM–10 PM. We’re especially interested in candidates open to a swing schedule covering parts of both (typically 9 AM–6 PM).
• Technical strengths: Strong troubleshooting across mechanical, electrical, pumps, and production equipment.
• Team DNA: Thrive in a fast-paced, team-first culture; adaptable, collaborative, and motivated.
