Maintenance Technician

Keep Curaçao’s favorite drinks flowing.

Every bottle of Coca-Cola, Fanta, Sprite, Dasani, or Fria sold on the island leaves the Curaçao Beverage Bottling Company (CBBC) plant. CBBC began in 1938 as a supplier of clean drinking water. Today it is a modern beverage producer and bottler and still a truly local company built by the CBBC family.

We are looking for a hands-on Maintenance Technician to keep the plant’s machines, utilities, and buildings running safely every day. If you like solving technical problems and want to work for one of Curaçao’s best-known companies, we want to hear from you.

What you will do

You join the Maintenance team within Operations and report to the Maintenance Supervisor.

Your work covers the whole site: production equipment, utilities, and company buildings.

• Keep things running. Carry out preventive and corrective maintenance on production machinery, compressors, pumps, air systems, and building services.

• Fix what breaks. Find and solve mechanical, electrical, and pneumatic faults quickly and safely so downtime stays low.

• Know when to escalate. Refer complex PLC, automation, or production-line faults to the specialist technician or your supervisor.

• Look after the buildings. Inspect technical installations and do minor repairs to fixtures, fittings, and facilities.

• Make it better. Suggest practical improvements and take part in TPM and preventive maintenance improvement work.

• Work safely and by the book. Follow quality, food safety, safety, and environmental rules on every job.

• Keep good records. Log maintenance work, breakdowns, and materials used in the management system, and help prepare for audits.

• Work as a team. Coordinate with Production, Facilities and outside contractors.

What you bring

• MBO/MTS level 3 or 4 in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Mechatronics or a similar technical field

• At least 3 years of industrial or technical maintenance experience, ideally covering utilities, facilities, and production equipment

• Practical knowledge of mechanical, electrical, pneumatic, and hydraulic systems

• Experience with preventive and corrective maintenance, maintenance plans, and supplier manuals

• Experience in a regulated environment, preferably food and beverage

• A safety-first mindset and accurate reporting habits

• The confidence to work independently on routine jobs and the judgment to know when to call in a specialist

• Good English. Papiamentu and/or Spanish is a plus

• Comfortable with standard computer applications and maintenance software

• Willing to work shifts and respond to emergency breakdowns when needed

Nice to have: experience with PLC-controlled equipment.
