Overview
We are looking to hire an Electrical Controls Field Technician to join our team. This position involves performing various control-related tasks in the field, including retrofitting control panels and diagnosing control systems at municipal pump stations. As the controls division is in its early stages, this is a unique opportunity to contribute to the establishment of a successful team as we grow. We seek a self-motivated individual who is a collaborative team member, a creative problem solver, and eager to help position our company as a leader in pump station controls.

Key Responsibilities

  • Diagnose and resolve general electrical control panel issues at pump stations, such as sensor malfunctions, motor winding failures, and problems with motor starters, soft starters, or variable frequency drives (VFDs).
  • Execute control panel retrofits according to engineered specifications, including:
    • Replacing outdated pump station controllers
    • Installing new power monitoring systems, pump motor protection devices, or telemetry systems.
    • Upgrading starters, circuit breakers, and power wiring to accommodate larger equipment and conductors for enhanced pump performance.
    • Transitioning direct-on-line starters to soft starters or variable frequency drives.
  • Commission new control panels.
  • Assemble new control panels from engineered designs, ensuring proper component installation and wiring.
  • Program and commission variable frequency drives and soft starters.
  • Utilize meggers and multimeters effectively.
  • Document field service activities with comprehensive reports, including detailed notes and photographs from each assignment.
  • This role may require occasional overnight travel, approximately 10% of the time.
  • Weekend work may be necessary during emergency situations, estimated at 10-15% of the time.


Qualifications

  • Candidates must reside in or near the Savannah area.
  • While 2-3 years of experience in controls troubleshooting or panel fabrication is preferred, individuals with a foundational education and the right attitude will also be considered.
  • A minimum of a 2-year degree in an electrical controls-related field is preferred, though relevant work experience may substitute for formal education.
  • Applicants should possess a basic understanding of electrical systems and industrial motor control components. Familiarity with control systems related to pump stations is advantageous.
  • Knowledge of electrical safety practices when working with energized equipment is essential.
  • Ability to interpret electrical schematics is required.
