Can you spot a failing bearing by sound and confirm it with data?
Do you enjoy tearing down a gearbox in the morning and debugging a control loop in the afternoon?
Are 5S, CMMS, and CI more than acronyms to you—they’re how you work?
If so, read on.
What you’ll do
Own mid-to-advanced corrective and preventive maintenance across industrial equipment.
Observe equipment in operation to isolate root causes; disassemble, inspect for defects, adjust mechanisms and control instruments, and reassemble to spec.
Conduct electrical and mechanical testing to verify performance; recondition and repair machine tools.
Diagnose control-system issues—hardware, software, and configuration—and drive them to resolution.
Collect and interpret predictive maintenance data to prevent unplanned downtime.
Source parts, supplies, and repair items to maintain uptime and spares readiness.
Operate shop equipment (lathe, drill press, grinder, other metalworking tools) to fabricate or repair components; perform welding when required.
Document work, close work orders, and review equipment history in the CMMS.
Practice and promote 5S; lead and participate in continuous improvement projects focused on better processes, results, and cost savings.
Coach less experienced technicians and provide leadership to small teams as opportunities arise.
Pursue ongoing development through on-the-job learning and technical self-study.
Work safely—follow all policies, procedures, and technical guidance; maintain situational awareness and call out hazards.
Tools and tech you’ll touch
Test equipment for electrical circuitry and mechanical systems.
Predictive technologies for performance data collection.
CMMS for documentation and history review.
Hand tools and specialty tools as appropriate.
Lathe, drill press, grinder, and related metalworking equipment; welding gear.
What you’ll bring
High school diploma or GED.
Associate degree (technical) plus 3+ years in general industry; or 5+ years in general industry; or completion of the ATS Technician Progression Program.
Broad understanding of electrical, mechanical, fluid power, and control systems; proven troubleshooting and repair ability.
Comfortable with 120/208/240/480-volt industrial electrical systems.
Strong mechanical and electrical troubleshooting, and well-rounded maintenance/repair skills.
Ability to use basic and specialized tools safely and effectively.
Ability and willingness to travel when required.
The physical reality
Frequent standing, walking, reaching, handling with hands/fingers; climbing, ascending/descending or balancing at heights with a ladder or lift; stooping, kneeling, crouching, or crawling in confined spaces; and communicating by talking/hearing.
Occasional sitting.
Occasional lifting/moving of more than 50 pounds.
Regular need for close and color vision.
Occasional exposure to outdoor weather and risk of electrical shock.
Work primarily in a loud factory environment, with possible exposure to hazardous materials and greasy/slippery floors.
