• Prioritize and plan work in alignment with guidance from the Maintenance Area Supervisor.
• Optimize preventive maintenance job plans using reliability-centered principles, with focus on critical assets.
• Develop and maintain PMs, predictive maintenance tasks, and standard work instructions.
• Analyze condition-based monitoring reports and initiate follow-up work orders as needed.
• Coordinate spare parts and kitting, verifying material completeness in advance of scheduled work to prevent delays and minimize downtime.
• Conduct pre-job walkthroughs with supervisors and craft to validate scope, safety, and readiness before work begins.
• Perform job plan audits during execution and update plans based on feedback to improve future work.
• Support equipment start-up following outages to ensure a successful return to operation.
• Participate in or lead daily and weekly team meetings and contribute to root cause analyses.
• Support the team during breakdowns and production upsets through the established escalation process.
• Backfill for the Maintenance Area Supervisor as needed.
• Oversee planned work execution, including coordination with contractors when necessary.
• Verify work quality to support safe return to service and minimize the risk of premature failures. 

You will love it here if…

• You put safety first, always
• You listen, learn, and evolve
• You are passionate about collaboration, teamwork, and achieving shared goals
• You treat all people with respect, operating ethically, and embrace inclusivity
• You are committed to improving our impact on local communities
