A day in the role

You arrive at 6:00 AM, review the preventive maintenance queue, and prioritize work orders for critical production assets used to make industrial roofing urethane, asphalt products, and adhesive tape. Before the first batch launches, you’re inspecting pumps and mixers, checking utilities, and verifying safeguards. Mid-morning, you’re collaborating with engineers on a new equipment installation—assisting with commissioning, validating controls, and documenting results.

Throughout the day, you capture accurate records for repairs, purchases, audits, and compliance.
