About the role
The Maintenance Technician is a critical, hands-on role responsible for keeping our production equipment and facility running safely and efficiently.

Responsibilities
- Perform routine and preventive maintenance on industrial machinery and equipment, including hydraulic presses, hose assembly equipment, and fluid transfer systems - on schedule, every time

- Ensure all work is performed in compliance with safety regulations and TCH Industries' safety policies
- Identify opportunities to improve maintenance processes, equipment reliability, and operational efficiency - and bring those ideas forward
Requirements
- High school diploma or GED; vocational or technical training in industrial maintenance, mechanical systems, or a related field is a strong plus
