Install, align, assemble, adjust, troubleshoot, and maintain production line machinery and equipment to ensure equipment availability, production rates, and product quality, in accordance with drawings, procedures, and occupational health and safety regulations.

Main Responsibilities

- Read blueprints, diagrams, and schematics to determine the appropriate work method.

- Install, align, adjust, dismantle, and relocate fixed industrial machinery and mechanical equipment on the production line (pumps, fans, conveyors, tanks, presses, molds, and fixtures) using hand and power tools while following technical drawings.

- Operate lifting equipment (cranes, overhead cranes, jacks, pallet trucks) to position machinery and components during assembly, mold/fixture changes, and repairs.

- Inspect and examine machinery to detect malfunctions and failures; diagnose breakdowns and restore the production line to operation.

- Install, troubleshoot, and maintain mechanical power transmission, vacuum, hydraulic, and pneumatic systems, as well as programmable controllers (PLCs).

- Adjust machinery and repair or replace defective parts; perform format and production changeovers on the line.

- Machine parts as required (lathe, grinder) for equipment repair, maintenance, or assembly.

- Clean, lubricate, and perform routine maintenance on machinery (first-level preventive maintenance, TPM).

- Assemble machinery using hand tools, power tools, and basic welding equipment prior to installation or commissioning.

- Maintain intervention and adjustment records; complete production changeover documentation.

- Lead autonomous maintenance activities with operators (lubrication/cleaning standards and 5S inspections).

- Support the commissioning of new equipment and recommend machinery improvements to management.





- Participate in risk assessments (LOPA/FMEA) and incident investigations with the Health and Safety Committee.

- Train operators on new machine settings and fixture/mold changeovers.

Required Technical Competencies

- Ability to read mechanical drawings, hydraulic, pneumatic, and electrical schematics, as well as assembly drawings.

- Mechanical fitting and assembly skills, including alignment (leveling, laser alignment), dimensional tolerances, press fits, controlled bolting, and basic welding.

- Experience with production machine setup and fixture/tooling changeovers (including SMED quick-change techniques).

- Basic knowledge of programmable logic controllers (PLCs) and control circuits.

- Strong attention to detail, precision, and analytical skills when diagnosing equipment issues.

- Ability to work independently and solve problems, often working alone or in small teams.

- Solid teamwork and communication skills with operators and supervisors (shift handovers and escalation of issues).

- Ability to prioritize tasks and restore production quickly without compromising safety.

Education and Experience

- High School Diploma (DES) and vocational training are typically required.

- Relevant Québec professional credentials (equivalent to trade certifications):

- DEP in Industrial Mechanics (1,800-hour vocational program in Mechanical Manufacturing, preparing candidates for the Industrial Mechanic/Millwright trade).

- DEP in Machining Techniques (1,800-hour vocational program in Mechanical Manufacturing), a common pathway for fitting and machining skills.

- AEC (Attestation of Collegial Studies) in Industrial Mechanics or Equipment Maintenance for continuing education.

- Relevant experience in a manufacturing or industrial production environment is an asset.
