If you're mechanically inclined, thrive in a fast-paced environment, and want to be part of a team that has each other's backs on the floor, we want to hear from you.

4. Basic troubleshooting experience with PLC and HMI systems is a plus.

5. Food or bakery industry experience is a plus.

6. Mechanically inclined with a strong troubleshooting mindset — able to diagnose problems and fix them on the fly.

7. Comfortable in a fast-paced production environment; previous experience in a fast-paced manufacturing setting preferred.

8. A true team player who's willing to jump in and help anybody on the floor, including the maintenance team and operations.
