• Perform hands-on diagnostics of control panels, circuit protection systems, and field devices across multiple process areas
• Collaborate with controls and mechanical engineers to modify and optimize control strategies based on observed site performance
• Provide field-level guidance during installation and commissioning, ensuring compliance with UL508A, NFPA 70, and NFPA 79 standards
• Mentor maintenance and operations personnel on electrical system fundamentals, troubleshooting techniques, and safety procedures
• Review and redline field wiring diagrams, control schematics, and equipment layout drawings to reflect as-built conditions
• Monitor system performance to identify recurring issues or inefficiencies and propose technical improvements
• Drive safety culture by ensuring lockout/tagout (LOTO), HazMat, and electrical safety standards are upheld during all work
• Maintain clear documentation of changes, solutions, and lessons learned for use in future system design and training
• Collaborate across disciplines, effectively communicating with technicians, engineers, and stakeholders
• Drive continuous improvement in safety, quality, and efficiency practices, including adherence to 5S and HazMat standards
• Solve complex technical challenges with creativity and innovation, delivering solutions on time and within budget
• Demonstrate the ability to work individually and within a multidisciplinary team, communicating and collaborating with technicians and engineers alike
• Demonstrate passion and excitement for solving difficult yet exciting tasks
• Arrive to work on time and maintain good attendance
