About this role
Job Summary The Facilities & Maintenance Technician is responsible for supporting the safe, reliable, and compliant operation of production equipment and facility systems within a manufacturing environment. This position performs day-to-day preventive and corrective maintenance while serving as a key technical resource for pyrometry, calibration, and testing in accordance with AMS2750 requirements. The ideal candidate has strong industrial maintenance and troubleshooting experience combined with hands-on knowledge of System Accuracy Tests (SAT), Temperature Uniformity Surveys (TUS), thermocouples, temperature-control instrumentation, calibration equipment, and pyrometry documentation. Job Responsibilities Pyrometry & Calibration Perform and document System Accuracy Tests (SAT), Temperature Uniformity Surveys (TUS), and temperature instrumentation calibrations in accordance with AMS2750, customer requirements, and internal procedures. Calibrate, verify, troubleshoot, and maintain oven and furnace temperature controllers, recorders, monitoring instruments, thermocouples, sensors, and associated wiring. Identify and troubleshoot temperature-control, uniformity, sensor, instrumentation, airflow, heating-element, and other furnace-related issues. Review test and calibration results and identify out-of-tolerance or nonconforming conditions. Utilize C3 Data software to schedule, perform, document, review, and generate reports for SATs, TUSs, instrument calibrations, sensor usage, and other pyrometry activities. Maintain accurate and audit-ready pyrometry records and support Quality during internal, customer, AS9100, and Nadcap audits, as applicable. Monitor pyrometry test, calibration, and equipment due dates to ensure activities are completed on time. Pyrometry Inventory & Equipment Maintain adequate inventory of pyrometry consumables, sensors, thermocouple wire, connectors, test equipment, and critical replacement components. Establish and monitor stocking levels and reorder points for critical pyrometry materials. Ensure thermocouples, reference standards, test instruments, and calibration equipment are properly identified, stored, controlled, traceable, and within required calibration periods. Coordinate replenishment, external calibration, repair, and certification of pyrometry equipment as necessary. Identify critical spare parts and materials required to prevent production or compliance-related downtime. Maintenance & Facilities Support Perform preventive, predictive, and corrective maintenance on production equipment and facility systems. Troubleshoot mechanical, electrical, pneumatic, and controls-related equipment failures. Troubleshoot motors, heaters, contactors, relays, sensors, control circuits, and industrial instrumentation. Perform basic PLC and industrial controls troubleshooting. Maintain industrial ovens, furnaces, pumps, compressors, exhaust systems, HVAC equipment, and other production or facility equipment. Read and interpret electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, mechanical drawings, equipment manuals, and technical procedures. Complete work orders, preventive maintenance activities, equipment history, and repair documentation within the CMMS. Support equipment installations, relocations, upgrades, commissioning, and continuous-improvement projects. Follow all applicable safety requirements including Lockout/Tagout and electrical safety procedures. Job Qualifications Preferred Qualifications 3–5+ years of AMS2750 pyrometry experience. Experience in aerospace, heat treatment, or a Nadcap-accredited manufacturing environment. Experience using C3 Data pyrometry software. Experience with SAT, TUS, instrument calibration, sensor tracking, and report generation within C3 Data. PRI/Nadcap pyrometry or AMS2750 training. Experience supporting Nadcap Heat Treat or AS9100 audits. Experience with calibration traceability and ISO/IEC 17025-accredited calibration services. PLC troubleshooting experience with Allen-Bradley, Siemens, or similar systems. Experience troubleshooting VFDs, SSRs, SCRs, heating elements, burners, and temperature-control loops. Technical degree, trade-school certification, apprenticeship, or equivalent training in industrial maintenance, instrumentation, electronics, mechatronics, HVAC, or a related field.
