Actalent Controls Technician in Albany, Oregon
Job Title: Controls TechnicianJob Description
As a Controls Technician, you'll be a crucial part of our controls team providing engineering support, particularly during the weekends. In the absence of engineering controls support, machinery downtime can extend unnecessarily due to the maintenance team's limited access to the plc code and electrical/controls experience. Your role involves being readily available across plants to troubleshoot issues, manage nuisance alarms, and ensure machinery and equipment are operating as intended. You'll be the go-to person for the union workers, equipped with guides, resources, and SOPs to handle common issues. You'll also be expected to work on back log projects when not troubleshooting, requiring you to operate with minimal supervision. Your primary responsibilities include maintaining and troubleshooting PLCs on all industrial control equipment and supporting SCADA systems. Additionally, you'll communicate with vendors and outside contractors to ensure proper installation, develop machine control systems, and document system developments. You'll also be involved in writing machine control software and presenting project status and information to various stakeholders.
