  • Use quality measurement tools and follow established quality standards

What We’re Looking For

  • 4+ years of electrical panel building experience
  • Strong ability to read and understand electrical schematics and BOMs
  • Experience building, wiring, and testing industrial control panels
  • Exposure to PLCs and HMIs; PLC programming is not required
  • Background in automation, controls, electrical troubleshooting, or commissioning is a plus
  • Comfortable with hands-on mechanical work
  • Ability to lift 50+ lbs. and stand for most of the workday
  • Reliable, long-term mindset with a stable work history

Why Join?

  • Air-conditioned facility
  • Opportunity to learn directly from highly experienced, long-tenured employees
  • Stable company with a strong culture and low turnover
  • Free medical insurance once converted to permanent
  • 401(k) contribution
  • Profit sharing and performance-based bonus opportunities
  • Tuition reimbursement
  • PTO and additional long-term employee benefits
  • Potential for 5–10 hours of overtime per week currently available
  • Strong opportunity to grow and cross-train in automation and controls
