Abatement Preventive Maintenance Technician
About The Position

Responsibilities include disassembling equipment and pump exhaust lines for cleaning and decontamination, preparing contaminated parts and coordinating cleaning, reinstalling cleaned or replacement parts and assemblies, and performing system startup and post-maintenance testing. The technician performs helium leak checks after on-site repairs and preventive maintenance, maintains maintenance logs and required documentation, creates and updates Excel, Word, and PowerPoint documents, and keeps work areas, tools, and toolboxes clean.
