What You Will Do

As an Operations Technician, you will have primary responsibility for the instrumentation, electrical and mechanical maintenance of the bulk storage facility.

This position is also responsible for the safe and efficient operations and maintenance of pipeline and station assets.

Daily responsibilities include but are not limited to: pipeline locates, excavation oversight, facility station checks, maintenance of equipment, and responding to customer needs.

Successful candidates must also understand and comply with all federal, state, and company regulations.

The Operator will be held accountable to accurately documenting operational activities which will require computer work, including: word processing, spreadsheets, work orders, and electronic communication.

Furthermore, you will have the opportunity to support the team as you manage small projects that are requested by your Terminal Manager.

These may include, but are not limited to: electrical troubleshooting, mechanical troubleshooting, pump maintenance, valve maintenance, testing of system safety devices, periodic inspections of tanks, valves, or piping, and other product quality control or technically oriented tasks related to a petroleum products facility.

A general knowledge of pumps, valves (twin-seal, ball, gate, etc.), and bulk storage terminal and pipeline operations will be an asset to you in this role.

In addition, your strong economic thinking and time management skills will ensure that overtime and travel costs are successfully managed.
