What You'll Bring
High school diploma or GED; trade, vocational, military technical training, or a two-year technical degree in industrial maintenance is beneficial
Minimum two (2) years of experience in general electrical or mechanical maintenance, facilities maintenance, or construction; a two-year technical degree in industrial maintenance may substitute for the experience requirement
Working knowledge of industrial facility or utility maintenance methods, small power and hand tools, basic industrial drawings, and technical manuals
Knowledge of safety regulations and practices associated with utility or industrial operations, including working safely around medium- and high-voltage equipment, following ENGIE safety requirements, and performing assigned work with minimal supervision
Strong problem-solving, documentation, communication, and teamwork skills, with a willingness to anticipate team needs, learn new responsibilities, and assist electricians in completing work safely and efficiently
Working knowledge of Microsoft Office and comfort using computers and mobile technology to perform and document corrective and preventive maintenance activities
Valid driver's license and clean driving record, with the ability to operate a company-owned vehicle; a Class A commercial driver's license or willingness to obtain one is preferred
