About this role
LotusWorks operates across high-tech manufacturing sectors globally, and this UPW Technician role places you at a semiconductor facility in Leixlip supporting critical Ultra-Pure Water systems. You'll perform preventative and corrective maintenance on UPW equipment, log all activities in the CMMS (Maximo), and work closely with operations and engineering teams on system testing and troubleshooting. The role demands strong technical fundamentals—reading P&ID drawings, following procedures rigorously, maintaining documentation, and responding to breakdowns safely and methodically in a fast-paced environment.
You'll need at least three years of relevant industry experience and a Fetac Level 6 trade qualification or diploma in Mechanical Engineering. The position requires independence, problem-solving ability, and the discipline to work safely without risk to yourself, colleagues, or systems. Communication skills matter here; you'll coordinate across teams and document work clearly.
