Job Description

Be the Technician Customers Count On

Some technicians replace parts.

Others solve problems that keep entire facilities running.

At Hodge Industrial Technologies, our technicians are trusted advisors who restore critical compressed air systems, prevent costly downtime, and represent our company with professionalism every day.

If you're the type of technician who enjoys diagnosing difficult problems, working independently, and taking pride in doing the job right the first time, we'd like to meet you.

What You'll Do

As an Industrial Electrical Technician, you'll travel to customer facilities to inspect, diagnose, repair, and maintain industrial compressed air systems and related equipment. Every day brings new challenges, requiring strong electrical and mechanical troubleshooting skills and the ability to think critically under pressure.

You'll:

• Diagnose electrical and mechanical issues on industrial compressed air equipment.
• Troubleshoot 240V and 480V three-phase electrical systems.
• Repair motors, motor controls, starters, relays, contactors, and control circuits.
• Diagnose Variable Frequency Drives (VFDs), PLC-controlled equipment, and industrial electrical controls.
• Read and interpret electrical schematics and wiring diagrams.
• Use multimeters and diagnostic equipment to isolate equipment failures.
• Perform preventive maintenance and equipment inspections.
• Install replacement components and complete repairs safely and efficiently.
• Communicate professionally with customers regarding findings and recommended repairs.
• Complete service reports and document work accurately.
• Manage your assigned territory while working independently.

Why Hodge Industrial Technologies?

At Hodge Industrial Technologies, we're committed to helping our technicians build long-term careers—not just fill jobs.

When our customers call, they're trusting us with equipment that keeps their businesses operating. That responsibility belongs to technicians who care deeply about quality, reliability, and customer service.

If that sounds like you, we'd love to talk.
