Industrial Engineering Technician Job Summary

This role, reporting to the Engineering Manager, will be responsible for supporting R&D activities, electromechanical maintenance on equipment & facilities, mechanical drafting, and CNC programming. It is a hybrid role requiring strong communication skills, organization, discipline, and the ability to multitask and balance priorities. The role plays a pivotal part in troubleshooting and eliminating root causes that drive equipment downtime, preventive maintenance, mechanical drafting, R&D setups for testing and data gathering, interpreting blueprints, selecting appropriate tooling, setting up CNC machines, writing programs to achieve the required geometry, troubleshooting program-related issues, and providing manufacturing support by loading and proving all CNC programs.

• Day‑to‑day coordination with production and engineering to solve problems and implement solutions quickly and safely, keeping factory assets operating efficiently. Tasks include repair, replacement, and installation of sensors, actuators, transformers, controllers, circuit breakers, motors, heating units, electric eyes, conduit systems, switches, wiring, belts, valves, etc.
• Troubleshoot and maintain industrial electrical equipment and automation system hardware such as programmable logic controllers (PLC). Read ladder logic and make basic adjustments to PLC programming related to inputs, outputs, tags, sensors, and/or buttons.
• Utilize mechanical and electrical tools, diagnostic instruments (meters), electrical diagrams and schematics, computerized maintenance management systems (CMMS), and other digital tools to work safely and efficiently.
• Model electrical safety and share electrical and mechanical expertise to train other team members. Perform basic rigging, mechanical practices, and welding skills in an industrial environment.
• Interpret blueprints, select appropriate tooling, write, develop, and prove CNC programs to achieve required geometry per GD&T specifications, material properties, and desired finish.
• Resolve programming issues and implement improvements to machining processes to reduce cycle time, improve tool life, and maintain accurate records of programs, setups, and process changes.
• Create manufacturing drawings of assemblies and models, including GD&T and BOM information.
• Interpret 2D drawings and layouts for migration into a 3D environment.
• Provide support to the engineering team with recommendations for capital appropriations and project completion.
• This job description is not designed to cover or contain a comprehensive listing of the required activities, duties, or responsibilities of the team member. Duties, obligations, and activities may change, or new ones may be assigned at any time with or without notice.

Reasonable accommodation may be made to enable individuals with disabilities to perform these essential functions.
