PM Optimization: Work closely with mill operations and mechanical maintenance teams to adjust lubrication frequencies and volumes based on operating conditions and equipment history. Housekeeping & Safety: Adhere to all mill safety policies (e.g., LOTO, confined space entry, PPE). Maintain top tier 5S standards in all lubrication storage and work areas.

Qualifications: Education & Certifications:

High School Diploma or equivalent required. Must possess or be able to rapidly obtain MLT-1 (Machinery Lubrication Technician) and MLT-2 (Machinery Lubricant Analyst) certifications from the ICML.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
