We are seeking a highly skilled Industrial Hydraulic Specialist to be the dedicated technical expert responsible for ensuring the reliability, safety, and peak performance of our heavy-duty fluid power systems. You will directly maintain, troubleshoot, and optimize high-pressure hydraulics powering critical machinery, including melting furnaces and rolling mills. The ideal candidate possesses deep technical knowledge of high-flow pumping systems, proportional/servo valve calibration, and PLC integration, alongside a strict commitment to safety protocols required in a hot-metal environment.


Key Responsibilities:

Heavy Equipment Maintenance: Diagnose, repair, and rebuild high-pressure hydraulic pumps, cylinders, motors, and accumulators on extrusion presses and furnace tilting systems.

Proportional & Servo Systems: Program, calibrate, and troubleshoot electronic proportional and servo valves integrated with automated PLC networks.

Fluid Condition Monitoring: Manage fluid contamination levels, execute regular oil sampling, and oversee the filtration and handling of specialized fire-resistant fluids (e.g., water-glycol, synthetic esters).

Predictive Maintenance (PdM): Perform regular accumulator nitrogen charging, ultrasonic leak detection, circuit pressure testing, and thermal imaging to identify failures before they cause downtime.

Circuit & Documentation Updates: Read, interpret, and update complex hydraulic blueprints and schematics; recommend engineering modifications to improve system reliability under harsh conditions.

Root Cause Analysis (RCA): Investigate recurring component failures and collaborate with the engineering team to implement permanent corrective modifications.

Safety & Compliance: Adhere to all plant safety regulations, including Lockout/Tagout (LOTO), confined space entry, and specific hazards related to molten aluminum zones.

Requirements:

Minimum of 3-5 years of industrial fluid power maintenance experience, specifically within a heavy manufacturing environment (e.g., aluminum mill, steel foundry, or heavy forging).

High school diploma or equivalent required. A technical certificate or Associate degree in Fluid Power, Industrial Systems, or Mechanical Technology is highly preferred.

International Fluid Power Society (IFPS) certification as a Hydraulic Mechanic, Technician, or Specialist is strongly preferred.

Proficient in troubleshooting complex hydraulic circuits, tuning proportional valves, and using advanced diagnostic equipment (flow meters, pressure transducers).

Ability to work the hours necessary to support 24/7 operations.
