Once the site is running, the Mechanical Technician owns electromechanical diagnostics, preventative maintenance, reactive repairs, equipment upgrades, and the execution of engineering build instructions for new machines, retrofits, and process improvements. This role is also responsible for supporting the Operations team as needed, helping maintain production uptime, consistent quality output, and a safe working environment.
