Full Job Description

Position Summary

The Senior Maintenance Technician is a highly skilled technical expert responsible for advanced troubleshooting, equipment optimization, continuous improvement initiatives, and providing technical training to maintenance staff. This role supports maintenance leadership but does not include supervisory responsibilities.

Key Responsibilities

Perform advanced troubleshooting of mechanical, electrical, pneumatic, hydraulic, and PLC-controlled equipment used in blending, milling, screening, granulation, compression, encapsulation, coating, filling, sealing, labeling, and packaging operations.
Serve as subject-matter expert on nutraceutical production equipment, including powder handling systems, ribbon/V-blenders, high-shear mixers, mills, sifters, granulators, dryers, tablet presses, capsule fillers, coating equipment, conveyors, bottle fillers, cappers, labelers, induction sealers, checkweighers, metal detectors, and packaging lines.
Lead root-cause analysis for complex equipment failures.
Develop and update PM tasks and technical documentation.
Identify and lead continuous improvement projects.
Train maintenance technicians and support skill development.
Support equipment installations, upgrades, and special projects.
Troubleshoot and maintain ancillary systems such as dust collection, compressed air, vacuum transfer, material handling, washdown/CIP-related equipment, HVAC support systems, and facility utilities that impact product quality and uptime.
Support setup, changeover, calibration, sanitation readiness, and start-up of production equipment to reduce downtime and ensure consistent batch-to-batch performance.
Ensure compliance with food safety regulations.

Other duties as assigned by management

Qualifications

Required:

5–8+ years of industrial maintenance experience.
Strong mechanical, electrical, and controls troubleshooting expertise.

Hands-on experience maintaining nutraceutical or similar regulated-process equipment such as blenders, mills, sifters, tablet presses, capsule fillers, coating pans, fillers, cappers, labelers, conveyors, metal detectors, checkweighers, and automated packaging systems.

Preferred:

Technical certificate or associate degree.
PLC programming experience.
Experience with packaging automation, vision/inspection systems, dust collection systems, powder transfer systems, or validated calibration practices.

Application Question(s):

A packaging machine will not run because the safety circuit will not reset after a guard door was opened. Production is pressuring maintenance to get the line running, and someone suggests temporarily bypassing the guard-door safety input so the machine can operate while the issue is checked. The circuit is part of the machine’s personnel-protection system. What is the best response?

A. Bypass the guard-door input only long enough to confirm the machine will cycle, then remove the bypass before returning it to production.
B. Reset the fault and cycle power to see if the safety relay clears without delaying production further.
C. Do not bypass or defeat the safety circuit; stop the machine, communicate the safety risk, and restore the guarding/safety circuit to proper working condition before operation.

You are the maintenance lead on shift, and production is running behind schedule. An operator tells you a machine is continuing to run but has been producing several packages with questionable seal quality. The supervisor wants to keep running until the next break because the issue is intermittent. What is the best response?

A. Keep the line running and ask the operator to watch it more closely until the next scheduled break.
B. Slow the line down and continue running so production can make up time while maintenance investigates.
C. Stop and escalate the issue through the proper quality and production channels, help contain any affected product, and do not restart until quality expectations are met.
D. Make a quick adjustment and restart immediately if the next few packages look acceptable.

A conveyor intermittently stops during production. The HMI displays “Discharge Sensor Not Made,” but the sensor LED is ON when product is present. The PLC input indicator for that sensor is not changing state. What is the best next step?

A. Replace the sensor because the LED may be faulty even though it is turning on.
B. Check the sensor output wiring, input card terminal, common/reference voltage, and verify the PLC input point with a meter.
C. Force the PLC input ON to confirm the rest of the logic will allow the conveyor to run.
D. Adjust the sensor alignment and increase sensitivity until the PLC input changes state.
