You support the Staff Electrical Engineer in keeping forging, machining, and inspection operations running safely and on schedule. The job exists to reduce unplanned electrical downtime, deliver capital project electrical scope, build and wire in house control panels, and keep site documentation up to date. Day to day, you walk down equipment, redline as built drawings, execute LOTO, support arc flash data collection, build and wire control panels per Staff EE designs, install and commission capital scope, and troubleshoot faults on CNC machines, forging presses, conveyors, and facility power.

Key Responsibilities:

- Install, maintain, troubleshoot, and repair electrical systems and components across forging, machining, inspection, and facility equipment.
- Read and apply electrical schematics, ladder logic, P&IDs, and wiring diagrams. Redline them when reality disagrees.
- Perform preventive and corrective maintenance on motors, VFDs, control circuits, lighting, distribution gear, and grounding systems.
- Test electrical systems with multimeters, clamp meters, insulation resistance testers, phase rotation meters, and thermal imagers. Log readings in the CMMS.
- Support PLC and HMI troubleshooting on Rockwell ControlLogix and CompactLogix and on Siemens TIA Portal platforms. Coordinate code changes with controls engineering.
- Maintain electrical spares inventory. Flag stockouts and assist with purchasing on parts you specify or use.
- Comply with the NEC, NFPA 70E, NFPA 79, and site electrical standards. Cite the applicable article when asked.
- Wear required PPE. Stop work and escalate any unsafe condition.
- Other duties as assigned by the Staff Electrical Engineer or Maintenance Manager.

## Minimum Qualifications

- High school diploma or equivalent.
- 2 to 5 years of electrical experience in a manufacturing or industrial environment.
- Demonstrated experience troubleshooting industrial motor circuits and basic controls.
- Ability to work flexible hours including overtime, weekends, and an on call rotation.
- Industrial electrical systems: 480V three phase distribution, motor controls, VFDs, control transformers, grounding and bonding.
- Schematic and wiring diagram reading. Comfortable redlining what you find in the field.
- Electrical troubleshooting in a production environment. Calm under downtime pressure.
- Control panel building and wiring per UL 508A and NFPA 79 practice: component mounting, wire duct fill, power and signal segregation, grounding and bonding, terminal block selection, wire labeling.
- Working knowledge of PLC and HMI platforms (Rockwell and/or Siemens). Able to monitor I/O, safely force outputs when authorized, and interpret fault codes.
- Electrical safety standards: OSHA 1910 Subpart S, NFPA 70E current edition, NEC.
- Test equipment: DMM, clamp meter, insulation resistance tester (megger), phase rotation meter, power quality analyzer, thermal imager.
- Microsoft Office (Excel, Word, Outlook) and CMMS data entry. AutoCAD viewer or full AutoCAD experience for reading and printing drawings.
- Clear written documentation

## Preferred / Bonus Skills

- Associate/ B.S. degree or technical certificate in electrical, electromechanical, or industrial controls.
- Journeyman or industrial electrician license.
- Experience with forging presses, large CNC machine tools, or heavy industrial conveyors.
- Hands on control panel building experience in a UL 508A shop or industrial maintenance setting.
- Prior involvement in supporting an Arc Flash Study or NFPA 70E program rollout.
- Prior involvement in capital project commissioning and startup.
