Are you the go-to person when a PLC faults out? Do you like solving the puzzle no one else can see?
If so, you’ll thrive as our Electro-Mechanical Systems Technician supporting distribution center operations. You’ll keep automation reliable, communicate clearly, and jump in wherever the facility needs you—because uptime matters.
What you’ll tackle
- Keep critical assets running: lift trucks, conveyors, dock equipment, hydraulics, pneumatics, refrigeration, and electrical/electronic systems.
- Run preventive maintenance with precision—and fix it right when it fails.
- Operate powered and material handling equipment safely as part of your maintenance workflow.
- Use drawings, blueprints, schematics, and diagnostic tools (multimeter, laptop) to find and fix electrical and refrigeration issues.
- Break down complex automation problems, including logic controls, PLCs, networks, and I/O that aren’t immediately obvious.
- Close the loop: complete work orders, logs, and records accurately using established processes.
- Team up with other technicians to share knowledge and accelerate repairs.
- Communicate effectively with associates, leaders, customers, and suppliers—written and verbal.
Your toolkit
- Troubleshooting and root-cause analysis
- Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs)
- Electrical system maintenance and repair
- Preventive maintenance planning and execution
- Material handling equipment support
How we work
- Respect people. Value differences, build trust, and help others succeed.
- Lead with integrity. Uphold ethics and compliance, be accountable, and make a positive impact—with humility and transparency.
- Customer-first results. Use reliable data to make decisions and balance near-term actions with long-term outcomes.
- Raise the bar. Stay curious, adopt new tech, take informed risks, and support others through change.
Can you meet these requirements?
- Minimum: Coursework or certification in electronic technology and 2+ years in industrial maintenance specializing in electronic technology (including troubleshooting/repairing automated equipment) OR 3+ years in that specialty.
- Preferred: Associate’s degree in electronic technology and 2+ years of relevant industrial maintenance experience (including troubleshooting/repairing automated equipment).
