Job Description

Job DescriptionBuild, Fix, Improve: Join Techo-Bloc as an Electro-Mechanical Reliability Technician

At Techo-Bloc, we craft premium pavers and outdoor living products with modern automation and a team-first culture. In Douglassville, our maintenance pros keep the lines humming—and their fingerprints are on every stone that leaves the plant.

A day in your boots

It’s Monday at 4:30 AM. You start your shift with a quick safety check, review the morning’s production priorities, and tackle a conveyor issue that needs real troubleshooting—not just swapping parts. By mid-morning, you’re aligning a new motor and gearbox, then MIG-welding a bracket you just fabricated. After lunch, you’re deep into an electrical diagnosis using schematics and a megger, chasing down a finicky sensor. Before you wrap, you document PMs, support a Lenze VFD parameter tweak, and help a teammate with a hydraulic hose build. You finish the day knowing the plant ran better because of you.
