Job Description
Role Overview

The Plant Engineer provides technical and project support across CARBO's Middle Georgia plant operations. This role is ideal for a hands-on engineer or experienced multi-craft maintenance professional who enjoys variety, practical problem solving, and supporting more than one facility.

What You Will Do

Design, improve, and troubleshoot systems related to pumps, motors, valves, belts, pulleys, sprockets, power transmission components, kiln systems, burner trains, and other industrial process equipment. Provide technical support for electrical, instrumentation, control, HMI, Wonderware, Burner Management System, 480-volt three-phase electrical systems, VFDs, and related plant systems.

  • Experience with electrical and control systems, including HMI, Wonderware, 480-volt three-phase systems, VFDs, instrumentation, or process control systems
  • Project-minded professional who can manage multiple priorities, coordinate contractors and vendors, communicate clearly, and follow projects through installation, commissioning, and start-up
  • Field-oriented problem solver who is comfortable spending time in the plant, working directly with operators, maintenance teams, and supervisors to understand and resolve issues
  • Ability to work independently while collaborating closely with plant leadership to determine priorities across two facilities
