Is this you?
- Do you instinctively lock out/tag out, gear up to NFPA 70E, and know OSHA 29 CFR 1910 like second nature?

- Logix PLCs, trace a fault, and make responsible program edits?
- Have you repaired drive motors and field devices (proximity and limit switches, lasers) under pressure?

- What you'll tackle
- Troubleshoot and repair complex electrical and electronic systems across heavy manufacturing operations. Maintain PCs/PLCs, VFDs, and control loops to sustain uptime and product quality.
- Perform new installations: conduit/sealtite work, wiring runs, terminations, and testing.
- Document precisely: collect data, enter findings, and track preventative maintenance activities.
- What it takes to succeed
- Self-starter who thrives without direct supervision and sweats the details.
- High school diploma or equivalent required; advanced schooling and/or 5 years of verifiable industrial maintenance experience ideal.
- Ability to pass screening and skills assessments.
