About the Role

We’re looking for a hands-on Electrical Test Technician to join a forward-thinking energy solutions team in Chattanooga, TN.

• Follow pre-established test protocols and checklists step by step

• Read and interpret electrical schematics, PLC diagrams, and HMI layouts

• Use meters to check resistance, continuity, and voltage

• Troubleshoot issues in real-time and collaborate directly with clients to resolve them

• Work on one unit at a time, with about 2 weeks allocated per test cycle

Qualifications

• Strong background in electrical maintenance, troubleshooting, and testing

• Ability to interpret electrical documentation (schematics, PLCs, HMIs)

• Familiarity with automation systems and some logic editing experience preferred

• Prior experience working with meters, voltage checks, and resistance tests

• Comfortable working independently and communicating with clients when issues arise
