• Allen-Bradley PLCs and industrial controls

• Experience with motors, motor controls, conveyors, bearings, and gearboxes
• Ability to read electrical schematics and wiring diagrams
• Experience troubleshooting 120V, 240V, and 480V electrical systems
• Comfortable working outdoors and at heights
• Ability to work independently and respond to equipment breakdowns safely and efficiently

Preferred Experience

• Allen-Bradley PLC troubleshooting
• VFDs and motor drives
• Instrumentation
• Hydraulic and pneumatic systems
• Conveyor or bulk material handling equipment
• CMMS experience
• TWIC card

If you're the person others call when equipment goes down, you enjoy troubleshooting, and you're comfortable working at heights, we'd like to speak with you.

Join a stable operation where your electrical and mechanical skills will be relied upon every day to keep critical equipment running safely and efficiently.
