  • Perform preventative and predictive maintenance and respond to electrical breakdowns with a sense of urgency to minimize downtime
  • Interpret, modify, and maintain electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, and documentation, ensuring all changes are properly recorded
  • Plan and execute electrical projects, including upgrades, installations, and improvements, with or without guidance from engineering or leadership
  • Size circuits and install conduit in accordance with NEC, OSHA, and local electrical codes
  • Upgrade outdated or unsafe electrical systems to improve safety, reliability, and standardization
  • Support and standardize plant electrical components and controls, with a focus on Allen-Bradley platforms
  • Program, troubleshoot, and modify PLC and HMI systems, including conversion of relay-based systems to PLC controls when applicable
  • Utilize diagnostic tools such as multimeters, oscilloscopes, and other testing equipment to identify root causes
  • Document work orders, repairs, and preventative maintenance activities in the CMMS.
  • Partner with operations and maintenance teams to improve uptime, reliability, and operational efficiency
  • Follow all Health & Safety, Lockout/Tagout (LOTO), GMP, PPE, and environmental requirements
  • Serve as a key member of the plant emergency response team

What You’ll Bring

  • High School Diploma or GED required; technical or trade school certification preferred
  • 3+ years of experience in industrial electrical installation, maintenance, and troubleshooting in a manufacturing environment
  • Strong knowledge of industrial electrical systems, including motors, drives, PLCs, and control systems
  • Experience with Allen-Bradley PLCs (MicroLogix, CompactLogix, ControlLogix) and HMI systems preferred
  • Ability to read, interpret, and modify electrical prints, schematics, and wiring diagrams
  • Hands-on experience with PLC programming and troubleshooting
  • Knowledge of NEC, OSHA standards, and electrical safety practices (including hazardous classifications such as Class I, Div. 1 preferred)
  • Familiarity with cGMP or regulated manufacturing environments is a plus
  • Experience using a CMMS for maintenance tracking and documentation
  • Strong problem-solving skills and ability to work independently in a fast-paced environment
  • Effective communication and teamwork skills with a strong customer-service mindset
  • Must pass pre-employment drug screen and background check

Physical Requirements / Work Environment

  • Ability to work any shift (1st, 2nd, or 3rd) based on business needs, including overtime
  • Frequent standing and walking for 8+ hours per shift in a manufacturing environment
  • Ability to climb ladders, work at heights, and operate lifts or elevated platforms
  • Must be able to reach confined or difficult-to-access areas and work around operating equipment
  • Ability to lift 10–40 lbs regularly, and occasionally more with assistance
  • Exposure to industrial conditions including noise, temperature variations, and chemicals, requiring proper PPE
