Maintain a strong field presence to support execution, safety oversight, and real time problem solving
Partner with Operations, Engineering, and Reliability to minimize downtime and improve equipment reliability
Ensure all work follows site safety requirements including lockout/tagout, confined space entry, hot work, and work at heights
Support spare parts identification, documentation, and CMMS record accuracy
Coordinate contractor work and hold contractors to site safety and quality expectations
Support shutdowns, turnarounds, and continuous improvement projects
Qualifications
Minimum of five years of industrial instrumentation experience, preferably in chemical manufacturing, refining, food processing, or similar heavy industrial environments
Prior supervisory, lead technician, or crew coordination experience preferred
Strong hands-on troubleshooting ability with process instrumentation, analyzers, control valves, and loop calibration

Electrical journeyman license strongly preferred but not required
Working knowledge of industrial safety practices including lockout/tagout, confined space entry, electrical safety, and working at heights
