Manufacturing Technician
Job details
Full job description
Looking for a Manufacturing Technician to join our team in Quebec City.
About Helix Biosciences
Helix Biosciences is a regional biotech and life sciences group with 9 locations across eastern Quebec, headquartered in Sherbrooke. Founded in 2009, our scientists and lab professionals serve clients and customers throughout the region with a hands-on, locally rooted approach.
About the role
You'll set up, run, and adjust production equipment, performing changeovers between products, dialing in machine parameters, and running first-piece quality checks before releasing a run. You'll do routine calibrations and minor maintenance, troubleshoot process drift before it becomes scrap, and record run data accurately. You're the bridge between operators and engineering: close enough to the machine to catch problems early, technical enough to explain what happened.
What you'll bring
You bring hands-on technical aptitude with production equipment, a methodical approach to setups and checks, and good instincts for when a machine sounds wrong. You document what you do, share what you learn with the shift, and stay calm when a changeover is running behind.
Send a resume and a short note on what draws you to the role. Phone screens are usually 20 minutes.
Required Qualifications
- Technical diploma or 2+ years of experience running and setting up production equipment
- Ability to read specifications and use measurement tools such as calipers and micrometers
- Basic troubleshooting and preventive maintenance skills
- Eligibility to work in Canada
Benefits
- RRSP matching to 4% of base
- Three weeks paid vacation plus stat holidays
- Health and dental benefits with a generous mental-health allowance
- Annual flu-shot clinic and on-site wellness sessions
