Sr Engineer - will relocate

Make sure to apply with all the requested information, as laid out in the job overview below.

Why this role matters

Keep an airport moving. As the APM (Rail) Systems Engineer, you'll be the go-to technical owner for electro-mechanical systems that move thousands of passengers daily. You'll troubleshoot complex faults, drive reliability improvements, and turn findings into fixes, trainings, and updated procedures.

• First Shift
• 91-134K base, based on experience and degree
• 5% bonus
• relocation assistance
• Excellent benefits

Operations and Maintenance Engineer

What you'll do

• Own the technical health of APM systems. Lead resolution of complex electro-mechanical issues; record all activities in the MMIS; ensure PMs hit schedule and spec.

• Troubleshoot & restore. Diagnose faults, identify root causes, develop repair plans, and communicate clear next steps to technicians and supervisors.

• Drive reliability. Perform failure/root-cause analysis; trend disruptions; recommend changes that reduce recurrence and improve time-to-restore.

• Elevate documentation. Coordinate with the engineering team on drawing/SOP changes; make sure updates are consistent and adopted.

• Teach and mentor. Deliver targeted technical training; create one-pagers/checklists; communicate procedure changes to techs and leads.

• Work from the schematics. Trace and interpret complex electrical/signal processing diagrams; use precision instruments to verify to spec.

• Step up when needed. Provide backup supervision when the Shift Supervisor/Manager is out.

What success looks like (first 6–12 months)

• PM compliance at or above target; clean MMIS work orders with verification notes/photos

• Measurable reduction in repeat faults on assigned subsystems

• Updated drawings/SOPs accepted by both shifts

• Techs trained and signed off on at least two high-value procedures

What you'll bring

• BS in Electrical or Mechanical Engineering (accredited) OR years of relevant hands on experience

• 3–5 years in electro-mechanical systems

• Strong troubleshooting ability; comfort with complex schematics

• Hands-on with precision tools (micrometers, oscilloscopes, analyzers, calipers), hand/power tools, and MMIS software

• Clear communicator who can translate technical detail into action for technicians and leaders

Backgrounds We're Excited to Consider

While direct APM or rail/transit experience is a plus, this role is a strong fit for electro-mechanical engineers from a wide range of highly regulated, safety-critical industries, including:

• Rail, transit, and people-mover systems

• Metro/subway systems

• Industrial automation and manufacturing

• Aviation and aviation ground support

• Aerospace and defense

• Transportation and maritime

• Bus systems

• Elevator/escalator systems

• Material handling and conveyor systems

• Automotive

• Amusement/theme park ride systems

OR SIMILIAR

Nice to have

• APM/rail transit experience; familiarity with PLC/SCADA; reliability engineering or RCA methods

Requirements

• Valid driver's license with satisfactory record

• Able to obtain/maintain airport security clearance

• Post-offer background check, drug/alcohol test, physical, and Ishihara (red/green) color test

• Fluent in spoken and written English

Tools & tech you'll use

MMIS (Maintenance Management Information System), standard office apps, precision measuring tools, oscilloscopes/analyzers, hand/power tools.

Physical & work environment

• Regularly: use hands, reach, climb/balance, stoop/kneel/crouch/crawl; stand/walk; talk/hear

• Occasionally: sit; lift/move up to 25 lbs frequently and 50 lbs with help occasionally

• Vision: close, distance, color, peripheral, depth, focus

• Environment: active rail/industrial setting with moving parts and live systems; exposure to humidity, temperature extremes (non-weather), and electrical risk; PPE and safety procedures required

Why You'll Love Working Here

• Great coverage: Medical, dental, and vision plans that support you and your family.

• Future-ready: 401(k) with company match to help you build long-term wealth.

• Company-paid protection: Short- and long-term disability, plus life insurance and AD&D.

• Real time off: Vacation, sick, and personal days plus 11 paid holidays. xhyhwjd
