  • Escalate performance, attendance, safety, or conduct concerns to the Maintenance Supervisor or Manager.
Safety and Quality Compliance
  • Follow and reinforce OSHA, Utah Occupational Safety and Health requirements, and company safety procedures.
  • Ensure compliance with lockout/tagout (LOTO), machine guarding, electrical safety, and other applicable maintenance safety requirements.
  • Follow Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP), sanitation, documentation, and quality procedures.
  • Report safety hazards, equipment risks, product-quality concerns, and maintenance-related incidents promptly.
  • Maintain clean, organized, and safe maintenance and production work areas.

Cross-Functional Communication
  • Partner with Production and Quality teams to prioritize repairs, maintenance activities, and line readiness.
  • Provide timely updates regarding equipment status, repair progress, expected downtime, and operational risks.
  • Coordinate maintenance work to reduce disruption to production schedules.
  • Participate in shift handoffs, production meetings, equipment reviews, and continuous-improvement initiatives.
  • Document completed work, repairs, equipment history, and follow-up needs in the computerized maintenance management system (CMMS).

Parts and Inventory Management
  • Monitor critical spare parts, tools, and maintenance supplies.
  • Help maintain accurate inventory levels and recommend replacement or reorder needs.
  • Ensure tools, parts, and supplies are properly stored, labeled, and maintained.
  • Assist with sourcing parts or vendor support for urgent or specialized repairs.

Qualifications and Requirements
Education
  • High school diploma or GED required.
  • Technical trade certification, apprenticeship, associate degree, or other related maintenance training preferred.
Experience
  • At least 10 years of hands-on industrial maintenance experience in a fast-paced manufacturing, processing, or packaging environment.
  • Previous lead, training, or work-coordination experience strongly preferred.
  • Experience in cosmetic, personal-care, food, pharmaceutical, or another GMP-regulated manufacturing environment preferred.

Technical Skills
  • Advanced mechanical, electrical, pneumatic, and hydraulic troubleshooting skills.
  • Ability to read and interpret equipment manuals, electrical schematics, technical drawings, and preventive maintenance instructions.
  • Working knowledge of motors, sensors, conveyors, pumps, fillers, packaging equipment, and related production systems.
  • Experience using CMMS software to manage work orders and equipment-maintenance records.
  • Basic proficiency with Microsoft Outlook, Excel, and other standard business applications.
  • Ability to use diagnostic tools and maintenance equipment safely and effectively.

Leadership and Communication Skills
  • Ability to guide, train, and support maintenance employees.
  • Strong judgment and ability to prioritize competing maintenance and production needs.
  • Clear verbal and written communication skills.
  • Ability to work collaboratively with Production, Quality, Engineering, and other departments.
  • Dependable, organized, and responsive during urgent equipment issues.
  • Strong problem-solving skills and attention to detail.

Physical and Work Requirements
  • Ability to stand, walk, bend, kneel, climb, reach, and work in and around manufacturing equipment for extended periods.
  • Ability to lift and carry up to 50 pounds, with or without reasonable accommodation.
  • Ability to work safely around moving equipment, electrical systems, chemicals, elevated areas, and varying noise levels.
  • Ability to wear required personal protective equipment.
  • Ability to work scheduled shifts, overtime, weekends, or respond to urgent maintenance needs as required by business operations.

Additional Expectations
  • Maintain accurate and timely maintenance records.
  • Protect confidential company, equipment, and product information.
  • Follow all Wasatch Product Development policies and workplace expectations.
  • Perform other related duties as assigned.
