Electrical Maintenance Technician – Bulk Material Handling

Keep power flowing where it matters

Are you the electrician who can keep high-throughput conveyors moving and downtime near zero? In this role, you will sustain the electrical backbone of a coal transshipment operation—bridging rail to vessel—while earning competitive pay, monthly and quarterly bonuses, and enjoying strong benefits with a flexible schedule.

Challenges you’ll solve

• Diagnose and resolve faults in PLC-controlled conveyor systems using ladder logic and sound electrical practices.
• Build and repair control panels; bend conduit; wire and verify 220/480V circuits and power distribution.
• Maintain AC/DC motors and variable-speed drives, controls, and sensors (limit and proximity) to meet throughput targets.
• Interpret electrical codes, prints, schematics, diagrams, and manuals to service industrial machinery.
• Create and carry out preventive maintenance programs that extend asset life and minimize unplanned downtime.
• Perform safety inspections; rigorously apply OSHA standards (LOTO, confined space, fall protection, hot work, mobile equipment operation, PPE).
• When needed, safely operate loaders, dozers, locomotives, and cranes to support coal movement from rail to vessel.

Who you are

• Industrial electrician with 3+ years of experience in a manufacturing environment.
• Expert at reading blueprints, schematics, and technical documentation.
• Well-versed in industrial electrical codes and safety protocols.
• Calm, analytical troubleshooter with strong communication skills.
• Experienced with PLCs; comfortable at heights, outdoors, and in confined spaces.
• Able to obtain and maintain a Transportation Workers Identification Credential (TWIC).
• Available for overtime and rotating shifts (nights, holidays, weekends).
• Journeyman or Master Electrician credential strongly preferred.
