Job description

Overview

In this role, you’ll play an important part in supporting the wind energy industry by assisting with the inspection, maintenance, and repair of wind turbine blades. If you enjoy hands-on work and have a mechanical aptitude, this semi-skilled position offers an excellent opportunity to build specialized skills while contributing to the reliability and performance of renewable energy infrastructure.

You’ll have the opportunity to work on wind turbines at utility-scale wind farms, performing blade inspections and composite repairs that help ensure turbines operate safely and efficiently. From minor surface repairs to more advanced blade restoration work, your efforts will directly support the continued operation of critical wind energy assets.

Flexibility is essential in this role, as the position requires travel to wind farms and job sites, often involving extended stays away from home. The role may also require working extended hours, weekends, holidays, and occasionally night shifts to meet project and maintenance schedules.


Responsibilities

  • Perform detailed visual and tactile inspections of wind turbine blades, identify damage types (erosion, cracks, delamination, lightning strikes), and document findings
  • Execute fiberglass/composite repairs on blades (including leading and trailing edge repairs) in accordance with OEM and GWO Blade Repair work instructions, maintaining aerodynamic profile and structural integrity
  • Perform blade repairs and inspections up‑tower using rope access techniques, platforms, or other approved access systems, following all safety and rescue procedures
  • Complete repair reports, photo documentation, and cure/repair records; support QA/QC checks to ensure repairs meet project and OEM standards
  • Perform routine maintenance to ensure the turbines are operating efficiently to include lubrication, filter changes, and checking for wear and tear on components
  • Conduct regular inspections of wind turbines to identify any potential issues. This includes visual inspections and the use of diagnostic tools to check for mechanical and electrical problems
  • Diagnose and troubleshoot issues with wind turbines. This involves interpreting error codes, using specialized tools and software, and following technical manuals to pinpoint problems.

    Working Conditions

    • Sit, talk, hear, read, and write
    • Regularly walk; use hands to finger, handle, or feel objects, tools, or controls; and reach with hands and arms
    • Lift and/or move up to 50 pounds
    • Perform duties on-site at industrial and commercial locations
    • Work in extreme temperature conditions and environments
    • Perform work at a variety of heights

Qualifications

  • GWO Blade Repair (BR) Level II certification required
  • SPRAT Level I or II Rope Access Technician certification (or IRATA equivalent) required
  • Demonstrated hands‑on experience with fiberglass/composite lay‑up, vacuum bagging, sanding, and finishing in a blade, marine, aerospace, or similar environment
  • GWO training preferred
  • 2+ years of wind turbine maintenance preferred
