    • Inspect proposed work in the field and develop electrical maintenance packages covering scope, labor estimates, parts, tools, drawings, permits, and safety requirements.
    • Maintain accurate work orders, equipment histories, and a prioritized backlog in the computerized maintenance management system (CMMS).
    • Develop and improve preventive and predictive maintenance plans for motors, motor control centers, drives, electrical distribution, instrumentation, and controls within your assigned scope.
    • Coordinate parts availability, vendor support, contractor requirements, and shutdown readiness.
    • Work with the Maintenance Superintendent, Electrical Supervisor, Maintenance Planner, and Operations to develop realistic maintenance schedules.
    • Use equipment history and technician feedback to improve job plans, reduce repeat failures, and increase planned maintenance.
    • Incorporate energy-isolation requirements and site safety controls into work packages, coordinating technical questions with qualified electrical personnel.
    What you bring
    • Substantial hands-on industrial electrical experience and demonstrated ability to independently develop and coordinate maintenance plans.
    • Working knowledge of industrial electrical equipment, technical drawings, troubleshooting practices, and maintenance materials.
    • Experience using a CMMS to manage work orders, job plans, equipment records, and maintenance backlog.
    • Strong organization, attention to detail, and the ability to coordinate competing priorities across departments.
    • Clear communication skills and a collaborative approach with electricians, supervisors, operations personnel, vendors, and contractors.
    Experience that will help you stand out
    • Electrical trade training, an apprenticeship, or related technical education.
    • Electrical maintenance planning or reliability experience in mining, mineral processing, or another heavy industrial operation.
    • Experience with open-pit copper, heap-leach, or SX/EW facilities.
    • Familiarity with SAP, Maximo, or comparable maintenance software.
    • Experience planning shutdowns and working in an MSHA-regulated environment.
    Why Gunnison Copper?
    Your work will have a direct, visible effect on equipment reliability and day-to-day operations. You will work closely with the people who execute your plans and contribute to a copper operation applying innovative processing technology.
