Full Job Description

Industry leader seeking an additional Plant Engineer to join the team! If you have project management and strong mechanical experience implementing new manufacturing equipment, plant expansions, retrofits and other efficiency improvements, we'd love to hear from you! Prior hands-on experience with auxiliary systems, including chillers, dryers, air compressors, vacuum pumps, and cooling towers, is highly desired. It's a stable company that has been in business for over 55 years and has expanded 15 new plants in the past 10 years.

Required: must be able to meet travel expectations of up to 75% domestic.

Provide leadership and support for equipment and infrastructure installations
