  • Resolve complex electro-mechanical issues on production-critical systems to maintain manufacturing uptime.
  • Perform root cause analysis and technical troubleshooting for automated manufacturing equipment and robotics.
  • Develop risk assessments, operational dashboards, and process improvement plans for critical machinery.
  • Create technical documentation including SOPs, emergency procedures, and safety task lists.
  • Plan and schedule complex maintenance tasks while coordinating with production teams and external vendors.
  • Provide technical guidance and mentorship to less experienced technicians on maintenance procedures.
  • Support the implementation of Ignition SCADA systems for manufacturing equipment monitoring.
  • Manage vendor relationships and coordinate work scopes based on production schedules and requirements.

What we're looking for

  • Candidates must be a U.S. citizen, national, permanent resident, or granted asylum/refugee status for export control compliance.
  • 4+ years of industrial maintenance experience.
  • Knowledge of diverse MHS, industrial mechanical and electrical systems, automation, controls, and robotics systems.
  • Experience troubleshooting technical systems, managing multiple projects simultaneously, and interpreting mechanical and electrical drawings.
  • Experience as a mentor, tech lead, or leading an engineering team.
  • Progressive career experience demonstrating increasing scope, team influence, and operational ownership.
  • Proficiency in MS Excel, Word, and Windows Operating Systems.
  • Knowledge of engineering documentation, building codes (NFPA, NEC, OSHA), PLC systems, CMMS, and Ignition SCADA (preferred); trade certification or equivalent technical education (preferred).
