Injection Molding Maintenance Technologist

At Revere Plastics Systems, we build more than parts—we build careers. Our McPherson team thrives on collaboration, continuous learning, and practical innovation in custom injection molding. If you love solving complex equipment challenges and improving how things run, you’ll fit right in.

You start your shift partnering with engineering and maintenance to evaluate a molding cell. A hydraulic press is drifting off-spec, a robot EOAT needs a tweak, and a secondary trimmer is flagging a fault. You methodically diagnose, pull prints, verify I/O, adjust programs, and get production back on track—safely and efficiently. Before the day ends, you log improvements to the manufacturing method and plan a small retrofit that will save setup time next week.

• Troubleshoot and repair hydraulic and electric injection molding machines, robots, and secondary equipment.
• Partner with engineering to refine, evaluate, and enhance manufacturing methods and uptime.
• Independently triage issues and drive root-cause fixes with minimal supervision.
• Work with robotics and programmable controls, including reviewing, troubleshooting, and modifying programs using the appropriate tools.
• Support plant machinery across electronics, hydraulics, and pneumatics.
• Interpret electrical and mechanical drawings to guide diagnostics and repairs.
• Design and fabricate EOAT; install and fine-tune valve gate systems.
• Stay current with evolving technology through continuous education.
• Communicate clearly across teams and assist as needed with overtime.

• High School Diploma or GED required; a technical degree is a plus.
• 3–5 years of experience troubleshooting injection molding equipment and secondary systems preferred.
