As an Industrial Technician, you will have the opportunity to become an experienced Overhead Crane Service Technician. We are seeking skilled individuals with electrical and mechanical expertise who are comfortable working at extreme heights. Our service technicians are the heart of our industry, thriving in a safety-first environment.

You will also provide on-call service as part of a rotation, including after-hours support. Your ability to troubleshoot electrical, mechanical, structural, and electronic issues on-site will be crucial. Additionally, you will perform post-repair audits to ensure safety features are functional and document findings while recommending corrective actions. You will consult with customers on repair and safety issues, offering recommendations for material handling improvement, and produce electronic documentation using company tools, obtaining customer signatures. Staying updated on industry codes and regulations (OSHA, ANSI, CMAA, HMI) is essential, as is completing service reports and other required documents accurately and promptly. Communication with the Field Operations Manager and Service Coordinator will be key to following established practices, and you will maintain company-issued equipment, vehicles, and assets in proper working order. This position requires a high school diploma, with an associate degree in Industrial Electrical and/or Mechanical Technology or related field preferred. A minimum of one year of experience involving electrical troubleshooting and mechanical repair is required, with prior experience with cranes being a benefit but not necessary. You must have and maintain a good driving record, including a valid driver's license, and be willing to work off the ground. The role may require varied overtime and availability for on-call service as part of the service office rotation, as well as occasional travel and work out of town. Physical demands include frequent lifting of up to 25 lbs, daily lifting of up to 50 lbs, and occasional lifting of up to 100 lbs. The position requires frequent climbing, balancing, stooping/crouching, and overhead reaching, with exposure to heat, cold, noise, and heights.
