You'll play a key part in upholding efficient work operations, maintaining equipment functionality, and driving continuous improvements in our work processes. This is a hands-on role that requires technical problem-solving skills for troubleshooting mechanical and electrical issues and executing the appropriate solutions. The Equipment Engineer coordinates with production, maintenance, quality, and IT teams to support equipment reliability and reduce production downtime.
