Industrial Mechatronics Maintenance Specialist — Claremont Fiber Plant

Join Prysmian, the global leader in energy and telecom cable systems. Our teams power cities, connect continents, and keep digital infrastructure moving. With 9,000 colleagues across North America and 35,000 worldwide, you’ll be part of an organization where your craftsmanship and problem-solving help transform the world around us.

A day in this role

You arrive for your 12-hour shift and review your maintenance queue and notes in SAP. A fiber draw tower signals a fault—you isolate energy sources (LOTO), diagnose a control logic issue at the motor control center, and correct a wiring fault in a complex circuit. Next, you perform scheduled PMs on a conveyor system, update your documentation, and coach an operator on safe start-up. Mid-shift, you respond as a Medical First Responder, then partner with the Maintenance Lead to plan parts for an upcoming PLC retrofit. Before clocking out, you verify inventory for critical spares and log your activities with precision.
