Schedule: This role operates Tuesday–Friday, 5:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.
If you love making machines purr and people proud, you’ll fit right in.
At Sashco, we’re a family-owned manufacturer of high‑performance sealants and stains. We care deeply about people, obsess over quality, and sweat the details—because the little things make a big difference. We hire you not only to work but to create excellence. If you bring curiosity, craftsmanship, and a “do what’s right” mindset, come help us keep our production lines running at their best.
Keep it running (Advanced Preventive Maintenance)
-
Perform comprehensive PMs on high‑shear mixers, pumps, chemical transfer systems, and automated packaging lines to prevent unplanned downtime.
-
Execute precision tasks—e.g., rotor/stator replacement, wear inspections for abrasive materials.
-
Use diagnostic tools to catch issues early (bearing wear, misalignment, sediment buildup).
Own the fix (Troubleshooting & Repairs)
-
Independently diagnose and repair mechanical, electrical, and pneumatic systems (motors, misalignments, sensors, valves)—including water‑based wood stain systems.
-
Replace/refurbish critical components (mechanical seals, conveyor belts, pump impellers, electrical sensors) with the right chemical compatibility in mind (e.g., mineral spirits, alkyd resins).
-
Partner with Quality to solve process issues like pigment dispersion or viscosity variations and verify specs.
Dial it in (Calibration & Controls)
-
Calibrate mixer speeds (RPM), pressures, and alignments to hit precise tolerances for density, particle size, and stain viscosity.
-
Adjust VFDs and PLC‑based settings to optimize performance and energy efficiency.
-
Verify with tachometers, pressure gauges, viscometers, and similar tools.
Stock it smart (Spare Parts Management)
-
Manage inventory of bearings, gaskets, filters, and electrical components in CMMS (e.g., Limble) for availability without overstocking.
-
Forecast needs based on usage, wear, and schedules; coordinate on specialty parts (e.g., corrosion‑resistant seals).
-
Keep parts organized and labeled; follow hazardous material storage requirements.
Be better together (Production Collaboration)
-
Schedule work with production to align PMs with downtime and minimize disruption.
-
Share insights to improve throughput and uptime; communicate plans clearly.
Grow others (Training & Mentorship)
-
Coach Level 1 techs on fundamentals (lubrication, belt replacement, safety).
-
Demonstrate diagnostic tools and reinforce LOTO best practices.
-
Offer constructive feedback that builds skill and confidence.
Show your work (Documentation)
-
Keep detailed repair logs, calibration data, and equipment performance metrics in CMMS or paper systems.
-
Document root cause analyses and trends to strengthen preventive strategies.
