Our team includes many long-tenured, experienced professionals whose deep knowledge provides an invaluable foundation—while we actively bring in fresh perspectives and innovative approaches to modernize equipment, expand technical training, and build a best-in-class Maintenance & Engineering department.

Whether you’re just starting out, transitioning from the military, or looking to take your skills to the next level, Lightera offers a career path, not just a job.

Why You Should Join Lightera

• Be part of a new and growing global brand making long-term investments in U.S. manufacturing

What You’ll Do

• Troubleshoot and repair production equipment and infrastructure systems

• Support automation and equipment upgrade projects alongside engineering
• Learn or apply PLC and control system fundamentals
• Lead Technicians serve as subject matter experts in high-level troubleshooting, fabrication, and project support. They provide mentorship and training to team members but do not have direct supervisory responsibilities, as salaried supervisors manage people and shift operations.

• Hands-on problem-solving skills in mechanical, electrical, or facility systems
• Familiarity with HVAC, compressed air, chilled water systems, and PLC basics

What We Offer

• A clear, skill-based advancement track through Multicraft Technician I–III and Lead
• Mentorship from experienced, long-tenured technicians and leaders
• Cross-training in mechanical, electrical, automation, and infrastructure systems
• Health, dental, and vision insurance (eligible after 30 days)
