This is a full-time, permanent opportunity with a smaller, growing ISO-certified plastic manufacturer. The company has built a reputation as a genuinely employee-friendly workplace — people tend to stay here long-term and the culture reflects it. The facility is clean and air-conditioned, the schedule is a true four-day work week with no rotating shifts, and the work itself offers real variety across preventive maintenance, troubleshooting, and mechanical repair on injection molding equipment. For a maintenance technician who wants a predictable schedule, a stable employer, and a workplace that treats its people well, this is worth a conversation.

• Completing minor electrical work including motor replacement, fuse replacement, and switch repair
• Inspecting and replacing filters on HVAC units and injection molding machines
• Preparing facilities for seasonal weather conditions
• Coordinating regular inspections and urgent repairs with external service vendors

• 2+ years of hands-on experience with plastic injection molding processes and maintenance — both are required
• Proven ability to diagnose and repair pneumatic, hydraulic, plumbing, and basic electrical systems
• Experience documenting work orders and maintenance records — ERP system familiarity is a plus
• Strong attention to detail and independent problem-solving instincts
• Full commitment to a Monday–Thursday, 10-hour day, 1st shift schedule
• Solid, stable work history
