5d • $35 - $40 • Onsite

About The Position

Imagine starting your week in Chandler, AZ, loading a fully outfitted company truck, then heading to a power plant where you’ll diagnose a misbehaving temperature transmitter before designing a custom bracket for a motor-operated valve retrofit. By midweek, you’re calibrating level, pressure, and temperature transmitters, confirming MOV diagnostics, and training operators on best practices. Some weeks, the road calls—you’ll travel across AZ, CA, HI, and NV, spending extended stretches at customer facilities to get critical systems online and running right.

Requirements

• 5+ years as a field service/instrumentation technician or equivalent electro-mechanical experience—preferably in power generation.

• Deep knowledge of electric, pneumatic, and hydraulic valve actuators.
• Clean, valid driver’s license and the ability to maintain an excellent driving record.
• Typical week: Monday–Friday, 8–10 hours/day plus travel.
• Expect 5–10 hours/week of overtime; start/finish times can vary.

Responsibilities

• New installs, retrofits, and repairs for pressure, temperature, and differential transmitters and broader process instrumentation—on-site or in our shop.
• Hands-on calibration of field instruments: level, pressure, and temperature transmitters.
• Troubleshooting of process control equipment including motor-operated valves, field measurement devices, and final control elements.
• MOV diagnostics, field measurements, and hardware design for actuator-to-valve mounting.
• Designing brackets and couplings to integrate valves and electric/pneumatic/hydraulic actuators.
• Customer-facing work: promote service agreements, deliver training, and collaborate to resolve complex issues.
