Plant Power and Controls Facilities Engineer
A day in this role
You arrive on site and dive into the heartbeat of our operations: the electrical infrastructure that keeps production moving. In one moment, you’re validating a new test method for a power distribution upgrade; in the next, you’re guiding the maintenance team through a preventive maintenance plan and coordinating a vendor on an automation controls retrofit. Throughout the day, you document findings, drive risk assessments, and flag any Environment, Health, Safety, or Quality concerns the instant they surface.
What you’ll own
- Evaluate building and plant electrical systems, components, controls, and automation through structured research and test programs.
- Design and implement testing methodologies to confirm capabilities and analyze system properties and performance.
- Lead and coach the Facility Maintenance Team to keep preventive maintenance, repairs, and continuous improvements current and effective.
- Partner with vendors, contractors, engineers, and utility providers to specify, quote, procure, and manage electrical and automation systems.
- Create and maintain data sets, reports, and technical documentation for facility equipment and automation controls.
- Assist with development of capital and operating (expense) budgets and support execution against plan.
- Ensure adherence to federal, state, customer, quality, and safety requirements, including applicable standards.
- Provide subject-matter expertise on facility modifications, upgrades, and reliability improvements.
- Serve as team lead for construction initiatives and day-to-day facility activities.
- Perform risk assessments and manage multiple concurrent projects with strong attention to detail.
- Communicate promptly any issues that may impact Environment, Health, Safety, or Quality (EHSQ).
Qualifications
- Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or a closely related discipline.
- Deep understanding of power systems, automation/control systems, and materials.
- Background in facility electrical systems plus maintenance leadership experience.
- Familiar with OSHA, ISO/TS 16949, and ISO 14001 standards.

- Proactive leader able to guide teams and deliver results within deadlines.
