As a Senior Maintenance Technician, you play a key technical role within our distribution centre. The warehouse covers an area of 146,000 m² and features two integrated High Bay systems, each reaching 50 metres in height, with a total of 21 stacker cranes responsible for the automated storage and movement of pallets. In addition, the warehouse is equipped with four picking robots, five pick-and-pack stations, a Rail Guided Vehicle (RGV) loop system, an automated inbound pallet receiving system and a layer picker. This combination of advanced technologies makes our distribution centre a complex, highly automated logistics environment where reliability, operational continuity and efficiency are key priorities.
With at least five years of experience working with automated systems, you are able to independently analyse and resolve complex technical faults. You look beyond immediate issues and actively contribute ideas for structural improvements, reliability and efficiency.
You also play an important role in transferring knowledge to your colleagues. You mentor and train other technicians, share your practical experience and contribute to the continued development of the technical team.
You work closely with the Technical Department, other departments within the distribution centre and colleagues at other JYSK distribution centres. Depending on operational needs, you will work either day shifts or a two-shift rotation. Working hours will be agreed upon in consultation.
Your responsibilities as a Senior Maintenance Technician are:
