About this role

Industrial Electrician

Industrial Electrician Indianapolis, IN | Monday-Friday, 5:30am-5:30pm (occasional Saturdays)

Join a maintenance team keeping a high-volume industrial processing facility running. You'll maintain, troubleshoot, and repair electrical and control systems — and take real ownership of equipment reliability, not just patch problems and move on.

Pay & Benefits

  • $25-30+/hour base, plus bonus up to 50% (currently averaging ~30%)
  • Overtime after 40 hours (time and a half)
  • All-in earning potential: roughly $118K-$142K/year (base + bonus + typical OT)
  • 401k with strong company match
  • PPE provided; bring your own basic hand tools, company covers specialty tools

What You'll Do

  • Troubleshoot and repair 480V three-phase systems, motor circuits, and control circuits

  • Diagnose AC/DC motors, VFDs, starters, contactors, and control transformers

  • Work with PLC-controlled equipment, sensors, and industrial instrumentation

  • Read electrical schematics and wiring diagrams

  • Repair conveyors, shredders, sorting equipment, pumps, and other industrial machinery

  • Perform preventive maintenance and document repairs

  • Follow LOTO and electrical safety procedures

  • What We're Looking For

  • Real hands-on troubleshooting experience — not entry-level

  • Comfortable working independently, low supervision needed

  • Solid understanding of NEC code

  • Experience with a multimeter (owned or regularly used one)

  • Any PLC platform experience works — doesn't need to be Allen-Bradley specifically

  • Journeyman license is a plus, not required

  • Background in manufacturing, recycling, automotive, or heavy industrial preferred (residential-only electricians won't be a fit)

  • Scott Strong
