Job Description
Plant Electrical Systems & Automation Electrician

Employer: Summit Service Solutions

Location: Lebanon, PA

Schedule & Pay: Full-time, first shift; $30–$35 per hour, based on experience

Your day, reimagined

It’s first shift in a fast-moving manufacturing plant. You start by reviewing the work orders queued for the dayone calls for bringing a new packaging line online, another for tracing a nuisance trip in a motor control center. After a lockout/tagout and a double-check of load capacity, you pull conductors, set a disconnect, and verify phase rotation. An hour later, a VFD needs commissioning, photo eyes require fine-tuning, and a PLC-controlled station awaits I/O checks before production can ramp. By day’s end, you’ve minimized downtime, verified signals endtoend, and left the floor safer than you found it.

That’s the cadence you’ll find with Summit Service Solutions as we place an experienced Industrial Electrician with a long-term manufacturing partner in Lebanon, PA.
