What your day-to-day will look like:

  • Determine corrective actions, make job recommendations, and clearly communicate technical updates verbally and in writing.
  • Read, interpret, and maintain written or electronic documentation while compiling accurate reports.
  • Follow company and industry safety standards while collaborating with and supporting team members as needed.

To thrive in this role, you have:

  • High school diploma or GED required; college degree preferred.
  • Minimum of 5 years of relevant experience.
  • Strong proficiency in electrical, hydraulic, and mechanical troubleshooting.
  • Valid driver’s license in good standing.
  • Must be at least 21 years of age to participate in the Siemens vehicle plan.

Candidates should be willing to work in non-climate-controlled environments and inclement weather if required or if applicable.

Applicants must be legally authorized for employment in the United States without needing current or future employer-sponsored work authorization.

Purpose is the reason a company exists. It's not about making money or selling products - it's the deeper "why" behind everything we do. It answers the question: What problem are we solving? What positive change are we creating?
