Industrial Process Instrumentation Mechanic (Calibration & Controls)

Job Description

Job DescriptionShape each day on the plant floor

Walk into our Ogden, UT facility and step straight into the heartbeat of production. As an Industrial Process Instrumentation Mechanic, you’ll keep chemical process control systems, heat treatment furnaces, and related electronic instrumentation running precisely to spec. You’ll be 100% onsite and report directly to the Senior Technical Services Manager.

A day in the role

• Start with a review of priorities from your supervisor—both verbal and written—so you know which instruments and systems are on deck.
• Head to the line to install, troubleshoot, and repair electronic instrumentation: thermoelectric elements, pressure and flow devices, gas chromatographs, and pH instrumentation.
• Calibrate temperature and pressure elements to National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) requirements, documenting physical calibration records meticulously.
• Keep preventive maintenance and test records current so audits are smooth and downtime stays low.
• Update and curate our calibration manual library to ensure technicians always have the right references at hand.
• Rebuild and install valves, valve positioners, and other flow-control devices to restore precise operation.
• Partner with Engineering and Quality on material qualifications and testing, and play an active role during customer audits.
• Use electronic and pneumatic test equipment along with small hand tools to diagnose issues across devices such as valves, pH, conductivity and flow analyzers, pressure instruments, regulators, recorders, controllers, and thermal elements.
• Coordinate activities in your area with the central maintenance shop to sequence work efficiently.
• Work safely with wiring, pneumatic tubing, fittings, valves, controllers, sensors, and process equipment that handles acids and chemicals, as well as programmable logic controllers (PLCs).

What you bring

• High School Diploma or GED (required)
• Five (5) years of instrumentation and control experience, including at least three (3) years in a similar industrial environment
• A diploma or relevant training from a trade/technical school in industrial instrumentation maintenance may count toward the experience requirement
• Demonstrated maintenance and repair skills

If you thrive on precision, documentation, and solving complex instrumentation problems, this is where your expertise keeps production at peak performance.
