Why this role matters

Keep an airport moving. As the APM Systems Engineer you’ll be the go-to technical owner for electro-mechanical systems that move thousands of passengers daily. You’ll troubleshoot complex faults, drive reliability improvements, and turn findings into fixes, trainings, and updated procedures.

What you’ll do

  • Own the technical health of APM systems. Lead resolution of complex electro-mechanical issues; record all activities in the system; ensure PMs hit schedule and spec.
  • Troubleshoot & restore. Diagnose faults, identify root causes, develop repair plans, and communicate clear next steps to technicians and supervisors.
  • Drive reliability. Perform failure/root-cause analysis; trend disruptions; recommend changes that reduce recurrence and improve time-to-restore.
  • Elevate documentation. Coordinate with Engineering on drawing/SOP changes; make sure updates are consistent and adopted.
  • Teach and mentor. Deliver targeted technical training; create one-pagers/checklists; communicate procedure changes to techs and leads.
  • Work from the schematics. Trace and interpret complex electrical/signal processing diagrams; use precision instruments to verify to spec.
  • Step up when needed. Provide backup supervision when the Shift Supervisor/Manager is out.

What success looks like (first 6–12 months)

  • PM compliance at or above target; clean work orders with verification notes/photos
  • Measurable reduction in repeat faults on assigned subsystems
  • Updated drawings/SOPs accepted by both shifts
  • Techs trained and signed off on at least two high-value procedures

What you’ll bring

  • BS in Electrical or Mechanical Engineering (accredited) preferred, or years of experience will be considered
  • 3–5 years in electro-mechanical systems (rail/transit, metro/subway, industrial automation, aviation, aerospace/defense, transportation or similar highly regulated industry)
  • Strong troubleshooting ability; comfort with complex schematics
  • Hands-on with precision tools (micrometers, oscilloscopes, analyzers, calipers), hand/power tools, and MMIS software
  • Clear communicator who can translate technical detail into action for technicians and leaders

Nice to have

  • APM/rail transit experience; familiarity with PLC/SCADA; reliability engineering or RCA methods

Requirements

  • Valid driver’s license with satisfactory record
  • Able to obtain/maintain airport security clearance
  • Post-offer background check, drug/alcohol test, physical, and Ishihara (red/green) color test
  • Fluent in spoken and written English

Tools & tech you’ll use

MMIS (Maintenance Management Information System), standard office apps, precision measuring tools, oscilloscopes/analyzers, hand/power tools.


Why You’ll Love Working Here

  • Great coverage: Medical, dental, and vision plans that support you and your family.
  • Future-ready: 401(k) with company match to help you build long-term wealth.
  • Company-paid protection: Short- and long-term disability, plus life insurance and AD&D.
  • Real time off: Vacation, sick, and personal days plus 11 paid holidays.
  • Keep growing: Tuition reimbursement for approved courses and certifications.
  • Whole-person care: Confidential behavioral health support when you need it.
