Italian term

Operatore meccanico

Italian to English Tech/Engineering Manufacturing Operatore meccanico
I'm trying to understand if this is best translated as "machine operator" or "mechanical operator". "Machine operator" I believe is soeone who sets up machines and make sure they work properly. Does "meccanico" as an adjective work in this way in Italian?
Proposed translations (English)
