Electro-Mechanical Maintenance Specialist

Join Us as an Electro-Mechanical Maintenance Specialist

Company : Bingham & Taylor

Location : Fredericksburg, VA

Department : Maintenance

Reports To : Maintenance Supervisor

Shift : 2nd Shift, Weekends

A day in the life

It’s second shift on a weekend, and production calls — a critical line is down. You step in, quickly assess the situation, trace the fault through PLC ladder logic and I / O, isolate a medium-voltage breaker issue, and bring the equipment back online safely. Later, you collaborate with Operations to fine-tune a VFD, adjust a furnace control SCR, and document your work with clear sketches and updates to the maintenance playbook. Before clocking out, you help plan a new equipment install and identify a predictive maintenance opportunity that will boost uptime next week.

What you’ll own

• Lead troubleshooting and rapid repairs across mechanical, hydraulic, pneumatic, electrical, and electronic systems to minimize downtime and protect product quality and cost.
• Isolate, test, and diagnose low- and medium-voltage distribution systems (fuses, switchgear, circuit breakers, transformers, etc.).
• Read and interpret PLC ladder logic, electrical schematics, and I / O diagrams; make minor program edits and troubleshoot PLCs.
• Navigate Ethernet networks, identify / log onto PLC addresses, and demonstrate a solid grasp of IP addressing.
• Tackle relay logic circuits, VFD motor drives, and furnace control SCR systems with a methodical problem-solving approach.
• Use precision tools (Multimeter, Oscilloscope, Megger) and all common hand tools with confidence.
• Locate and interpret drawings, manuals, and special procedures from files, vendors, online sources, and manufacturers; create supplemental sketches / diagrams to clearly communicate issues.
• Continuously improve reactive, preventive, and predictive maintenance programs; drive CI opportunities across the plant.
• Develop into a resident technical expert for specialized assets like melting induction furnaces, sand mold machines, and air compressors.
• Champion safe work practices and environmental stewardship in every task.
