Mobile Automation Maintenance Technician
for section headings. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We need to preserve all substantive information. So we need to include details from Overview, Position Summary, etc.
Let's craft About the role: combine Overview and Position Summary into prose paragraphs.
Overview: "Electrolit Manufacturing USA (EMUSA) is a new, state-of-the-art beverage manufacturing facility in Waco, TX. The 640,000 sqft. Facility is situated in the Texas Central Industrial Park and will be operating on a 24/7 schedule. The facility will manufacture and distribute the 26 flavors of Electrolit™ - the fastest growing isotonic hydration beverage in the US."
Position Summary: "The Automation Maintenance Technician is responsible for maintaining, troubleshooting, repairing, and optimizing automated material-handling and production systems. The role supports the safe, reliable, and efficient operation of PLC-controlled equipment, robotics, conveyors, E80 LGV systems, battery charging stations, pallet conveyor systems, and associated electrical, mechanical, hydraulic, and control components. Working closely with the Embedded Automation Engineer, the technician will progressively develop the technical expertise required to assume increased ownership of the maintenance, reliability, troubleshooting, and continuous improvement of the E80 LGV fleet, including Rear Wheel Drive, Pantograph, and Reach vehicle models. The position requires a strong combination of electrical, automation, and mechanical maintenance skills to maximize equipment availability, system performance, and operational efficiency. This position is intended to serve as the primary backup and succession role for the Embedded Automation Engineer, with the expectation that the technician will progressively assume increased responsibility for the maintenance, reliability, troubleshooting, and continuous improvement of the E80 LGV fleet, charging infrastructure, and pallet conveyor systems."
We can make two paragraphs.
Responsibilities: we need to list duties. The key responsibilities section has many bullet-like sentences. We'll convert each sentence into
- . Might be long but okay.
We need to preserve all substantive information: include each duty.
Let's extract list items from "KEY RESPONSIBILITIES" section:

- Coordinate with automation vendors and technical support teams when advanced troubleshooting is required.
- Assist in managing critical spare parts inventory for LGVs, battery chargers, conveyor systems, and associated automation equipment.
- Reliability and Continuous Improvement
- Analyze equipment performance and maintenance history to improve reliability and reduce repeat failures.
- Participate in continuous improvement, Kaizen, and costreduction initiatives.
- Develop and improve preventivemaintenance tasks, inspection standards, and predictivemaintenance practices.
- Recommend equipment modifications that improve safety, throughput, maintainability, and equipment life.
- Support reliabilitycentered maintenance initiatives for LGVs, conveyor systems, and automated materialhandling equipment.
- Documentation and Compliance
- Maintain accurate work orders, maintenance records, parts usage, and equipment history in the designated system.
- Create and update maintenance procedures, work instructions, inspection checklists, and troubleshooting guides.
- Follow company safety requirements, lockout/tagout procedures, electricalsafety practices, and applicable regulatory standards.
- Support safety, maintenance, and compliance audits.
- Maintain accurate documentation of LGV maintenance activities, software updates, component replacements, and system modifications.
- Operational and Technical Support

- Serve as a technical liaison among operations, engineering, maintenance, IT, and equipment vendors.
- Communicate equipment condition, repair status, operational risks, and recommend followup actions clearly and promptly.
- Provide practical coaching to equipment users on proper operation, basic fault recognition, and escalation expectations.
Also JOB EFFICIENCY MEASURES could be considered part of Responsibilities? But it's separate. Could be included under Responsibilities as performance metrics. However heading only allowed for Responsibilities; we could include those as list items under Responsibilities as well. But we might also create a separate section? Not allowed. We'll include them under Responsibilities as additional items.
Job Efficiency Measures list:
- Production output and throughput targets.
- Accuracy and quality rates.
- Adherence to safety, regulatory, and compliance standards.
- Equipment uptime, utilization, and operational efficiency.
- Ontime completion and schedule adherence.
- Participation in and contribution to continuous improvement initiatives.
We'll add those.
Now Qualifications: list items.
From QUALIFICATIONS:
- Minimum of 3 years of experience in automation, intralogistics, manufacturing, warehouse automation, or industrialequipment environments.
- Experience maintaining industrial mechanical systems including conveyors, hydraulic systems, gearboxes, bearings, drive assemblies, and automated materialhandling equipment.
- Strong troubleshooting, diagnostic, and problemsolving skills.
- Experience in customerfacing or operationalsupport technical roles.
- Ability to read electrical schematics, mechanical drawings, hydraulic diagrams, and equipment documentation.
- Working knowledge of industrial safety practices, including lockout/tagout (LOTO).
- Working knowledge of hydraulic and pneumatic systems, mechanical powertransmission components, and industrial maintenance best practices.
- Demonstrated ability to troubleshoot complex electromechanical systems involving electrical controls, mechanical components, and automation equipment.
- Experience with batterycharging systems, industrial mobile equipment, and automated guided vehicles is preferred.
- Ability to work flexible schedules, including weekends and oncall support when required.
Also OTHER REQUIREMENTS includes physical and soft skills; but we might put those under Skills.
Now Skills: we need to extract skill statements from OTHER REQUIREMENTS and maybe from Qualifications that are skill-based. But we must not duplicate content. We already used some skill statements in Qualifications; we could keep them there and not duplicate. However the instruction: "Use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits". Qualifications is a list of requirements; we can keep them under Qualifications. Skills section could be for other skill-based items like written communication, reading comprehension, critical thinking, active listening, etc. Also physical requirements like lift 30 lbs, use ladders, etc. Those could be under Skills? But maybe better to keep them under Qualifications as they are requirements. However Qualifications heading is for qualifications; we could include all requirement items there. But we already have a Qualifications section; we could put all requirement items there, and not have a Skills section. However the instruction says we can include a Skills section if there is real specific content. We have OTHER REQUIREMENTS that includes physical and soft skills. We could treat those as Skills. But we must not duplicate. So we could split: Qualifications for experience/education/technical requirements; Skills for soft skills, physical abilities, written communication, etc.
Let's list OTHER REQUIREMENTS items:
- Must be able to lift 30 lbs.
- Must be able to comfortably use ladders and step stools.
- Written Communication: Understands and clearly conveys information in writing.
- Reading Comprehension: Interprets written instructions and jobrelated documents.
- Critical Thinking: Evaluated information and
for prose. We need to preserve all substantive information. So we need to include details from Overview, Position Summary, etc. Let's craft About the role: combine Overview and Position Summary into prose paragraphs.
