Make an impact

This position is located at our customer Wärtsilä, in Kampen. 

This is a technically fascinating and varied role where no two days are the same! You'll work in a great team of seven colleagues and be responsible for maintaining both the logistics automation and equipment, as well as building management. You'll maintain systems such as pallet cranes, mini-load cranes, and associated conveyor systems. You'll work early, late, and (sometimes) night shifts (24/5), including standby arrangements (night and weekend). You'll have the opportunity to develop your skills in various technologies, and Swisslog can also offer various training courses in this area.

Your responsibilities include:

• Performing preventive and corrective maintenance.
• Resolving malfunctions and user problems related to mechanical, electronic, and automation (PLC & IT) where time is of the essence. While familiarity with PLC is desirable, we emphasize that programming skills are not required.

• Establishing documentation, maintenance, inspections, and management of technical systems or equipment.
