Technician (Packaging Machine Operator)
Eastern Dragon Package Tech PLCAbout This Role
This is a hands-on technical role operating advanced, PLC-controlled packaging machinery at a growing manufacturing company. The position suits experienced machine operators who are comfortable with automation and computer interfaces, not just manual machine work. You will be one of four technicians responsible for keeping production running smoothly in a new workshop, reporting directly to the workshop supervisor.
What the Requirements Say About This Role
The requirement for a TVET Level 4 diploma in Mechanical or Electrical Engineering signals that the employer values practical, trade-based training over university degrees. The four-year experience minimum is non-negotiable and implies you must have proven familiarity with automated packaging systems, not just general factory work. This role is for someone who can troubleshoot both mechanical and electrical issues on the job, not just monitor machines.
How to Approach This Application
Focus your CV and cover letter on specific PLC-operated packaging machines you have operated, naming models or systems if possible. Emphasize any experience with computer control interfaces and parameter monitoring, as this is a key part of the role. Since the company is opening a new workshop, highlight your ability to work in a startup-like environment and adapt to new equipment quickly.
Who This Role Suits
This role is ideal for experienced TVET graduates with a proven track record in automated packaging operations. Competition will be moderate, as the specific experience requirement narrows the candidate pool, but qualified applicants should apply early within the two-week window.
