Technical Maintenance Technician (w/m/d) 100 %

Technical Maintenance Technician (w/m/d) 100 %

Work location: Freienbach SZ| Start: immediately or by arrangement

Do you have a good sense for technology, find causes instead of just symptoms, and enjoy ensuring that production plants run reliably? Do you roll up your sleeves and simultaneously keep an eye on maintenance, projects, and operational safety? Then this task could suit you.

At Oro de Cacao in Freienbach, we process cocoa using an innovative production process. Our modern plants and the associated technical infrastructure require proactive, reliable maintenance. For this, we are looking for a dedicated personality who takes responsibility and looks after our technology holistically.

What you do with us

You ensure that our production plants and operating media remain safe and available – from preventive maintenance to sustainable fault rectification.

• Ensuring smooth and safe operation of our production plants
• Planning, implementation, and monitoring of preventive maintenance as well as professional repairs to plants, facilities, and technical infrastructure
• Systematic fault analysis, sustainable troubleshooting, and continuous optimization of plants, processes, and workflows
• Planning, coordination, and implementation of technical projects up to commissioning
• Ensuring the water, electricity, compressed air, as well as cooling and heating supply
• Operation, monitoring, and maintenance of the wastewater treatment plant as well as technical care of the buildings and outdoor facilities including winter service if required
• Coordination and monitoring of external service providers as well as management of the spare parts warehouse
• Use of the maintenance program, seamless documentation of work, and updating of technical documents
• Compliance with safety, environmental, and quality specifications as well as assuming responsibility for the fire alarm system
• Close cooperation with production and quality assurance; technical instruction of employees as well as occasional on-call duties

Who we are looking for

We are looking for a practice-oriented technical all-rounder who both works independently and maintains an overview of plants, operating resources, and maintenance work.

Ideally, you bring with you:

• Completed technical or manual training, e.g., in mechanics, maintenance, plant, or building technology
• Experience in the maintenance of production plants and technical infrastructure
• Good technical understanding, systematic troubleshooting, and enjoyment of improvements
• Independent, structured, reliable way of working and a strong sense of safety
• Pragmatic hands-on mentality, team spirit, and sense of responsibility
• Very good German skills; English is an advantage
• Experience in the food industry or hygienically sensitive production environments is an advantage
• Willingness for on-call duties

What you should know beforehand

We are not a large company with a dedicated specialist for every technical topic. With us, you don't just take care of a single plant: You analyze faults, plan preventive maintenance, coordinate specialist companies, and help to continuously further develop our technology.

It is precisely this variety and personal responsibility that characterize the position.

What awaits you with us

• A versatile technical key position with a lot of personal responsibility and scope for design
• Modern production plants and short decision-making paths
• A growing Swiss food-tech company and an uncomplicated team
• Development and further training opportunities
• Market-competitive compensation and above-average pension fund benefits
