At Sashco, we’re a family-owned manufacturer of high‑performance sealants and stains. We care deeply about people, obsess over quality, and sweat the details—because the little things make a big difference. We hire you not only to work but to create excellence. If you bring curiosity, craftsmanship, and a “do what’s right” mindset, come help us keep our production lines running at their best.   What you’ll do:  Keep it running (Advanced Preventive Maintenance) Perform comprehensive PMs on high‑shear mixers, pumps, chemical transfer systems, and automated packaging lines to prevent unplanned downtime. Execute precision tasks—e.g., rotor/stator replacement, wear inspections for abrasive materials. Use diagnostic tools to catch issues early (bearing wear, misalignment, sediment buildup).  Own the fix (Troubleshooting & Repairs) Independently diagnose and repair mechanical, electrical, and pneumatic systems (motors, misalignments, sensors, valves)—including water‑based wood stain systems. Replace/refurbish critical components (mechanical seals, conveyor belts, pump impellers, electrical sensors) with the right chemical compatibility in mind (e.g., mineral spirits, alkyd resins). Partner with Quality to solve process issues like pigment dispersion or viscosity variations and verify specs. Dial it in (Calibration & Controls) Calibrate mixer speeds (RPM), pressures, and alignments to hit precise tolerances for density, particle size, and stain viscosity. Adjust VFDs and PLC‑based settings to optimize performance and energy efficiency. Verify with tachometers, pressure gauges, viscometers, and similar tools. Stock it smart (Spare Parts Management) Manage inventory of bearings, gaskets, filters, and electrical components in CMMS (e.g., Limble) for availability without overstocking. Forecast needs based on usage, wear, and schedules; coordinate on specialty parts (e.g., corrosion‑resistant seals). Keep parts organized and labeled; follow hazardous material storage requirements. Be better together (Production Collaboration) Schedule work with production to align PMs with downtime and minimize disruption. Share insights to improve throughput and uptime; communicate plans clearly. Grow others (Training & Mentorship) Coach Level 1 techs on fundamentals (lubrication, belt replacement, safety). Demonstrate diagnostic tools and reinforce LOTO best practices. Offer constructive feedback that builds skill and confidence. Show your work (Documentation) Keep detailed repair logs, calibration data, and equipment performance metrics in CMMS or paper systems.
