Application Instructions

Candidates with 15–20 years of industrial electrical experience in printing or similar continuous manufacturing environments are encouraged to apply. Proficiency in PLCs (Allen-Bradley, Siemens) and experience with web handling, tension control, and finishing systems are essential. While strong communication skills and the ability to work across sites are required, some Spanish proficiency is highly desirable given the geographic scope of the role.
