Electro-Mechanical Reliability Technician -- Precision Metals

Step Into a Day on the Floor

You clock in, scan the production boards, and walk the precision metal lines where dental instruments take shape. A quick check of preventive maintenance tasks is followed by a callout: a piece of automated equipment is down. You grab the schematics, isolate the fault, lockout/tagout, swap a component, and bring the line back up. Before shift change, you document the fix in the CMMS and brief the next crew so production stays on pace.
