• Diagnose and service motors, drives, starters, breakers, transformers, and control circuits
• Read and apply electrical schematics, blueprints, and detailed wiring diagrams
• Work with PLCs, instrumentation, and electronic control platforms
• Replace and install components including motors, valves, thermocouples, and transmitters
• Execute and support preventative maintenance to improve reliability and reduce unplanned stops
• Enter and track work orders in CMMS; identify and source required parts
• Operate mobile equipment and assist with rigging when needed
• Champion safety procedures while keeping the workspace orderly and clean
