  • HMI alarms and fault messages
  • Troubleshoot cutting, welding, glazing, material handling, and automated assembly equipment
  • Back up PLC and HMI programs and maintain basic documentation
  • Support and mentor maintenance technicians on electrical and controls troubleshooting
  • Work safely in 24VDC–480VAC industrial environments

Qualifications

  • Proven hands-on experience troubleshooting PLC-controlled industrial equipment

Required Skills

  • Monitor live logic
  • Trace inputs/outputs from field devices to logic and outputs

  • Manufacturing environment experience (automation-heavy preferred)

Preferred Skills

  • Preferred Experience
  • Allen-Bradley PLCs, Lenze, Beckoff, Yaskawa drives
  • HMI troubleshooting (PanelView or similar)
  • VFD setup and fault diagnostics
  • Industrial networking basics (Ethernet/IP, DeviceNet, Profinet)
  • Experience with OEM window, extrusion, or high-speed manufacturing equipment
  • Ability and willingness to train and mentor others
