The Electromechanical Technician – Downhole Tools plays a key role in ensuring the safe, reliable, and high-quality delivery of complex downhole tools. You will apply hands-on technical skills across electronic, mechanical, and hydraulic systems to assemble, test, troubleshoot, and qualify tools designed for high-pressure, high-temperature (HPHT) environments. Working closely with engineering, quality, and field service teams, you will help maintain tool readiness and support continuous improvement across operations.

Responsibilities

• Assemble, test, troubleshoot, and repair downhole electronic assemblies including PCBs, sensors, telemetry modules, power systems, and wiring harnesses.
• Assemble, disassemble, inspect, and repair mechanical tool components including housings, bearings, shafts, seals, fasteners, and connectors.
• Assemble, test, and troubleshoot hydraulic systems such as valves, pistons, actuators, and pressure chambers.
• Perform electrical, mechanical, hydraulic, and system-level functional testing using standard test equipment and fixtures.
• Conduct pressure, leak, and environmental testing to verify tool performance and compliance with specifications.
• Diagnose nonconformances and failures, support root cause analysis, and implement corrective actions.
• Ensure compliance with Baker Hughes Quality Management System (QMS) and Health, Safety, and Environment (HSE) requirements.
• Maintain accurate documentation, inspection records, and component traceability.
• Collaborate with engineering, quality, and field service teams to support tool readiness and reliability.
• Support continuous improvement initiatives focused on quality, safety, and efficiency.

Requirements

• Associate degree (AAS/AS) in Electromechanical Technology, Electronics Engineering Technology, Electrical Engineering Technology, Mechanical Engineering Technology, or related discipline OR equivalent technical training and career experience.
• Minimum of 3–5 years of hands-on experience with electromechanical, hydraulic, and downhole tool or similar systems.
• Ability to read and interpret electrical schematics, mechanical drawings, assembly procedures, and test documentation.
• Working knowledge of electronic test equipment such as multimeters and oscilloscopes.
• Strong troubleshooting, analytical, and problem-solving skills.
• Proficiency with standard measuring tools and torque-controlled assembly.
• Basic computer skills for documentation and test data entry.
• Ability to work in a fast-paced, safety-critical manufacturing or service environment.

Qualifications

• Desired Characteristics include experience with data analytics, Excel, SAP, MS Office, Outlook, and other database applications.
• IPC certifications (IPC-A-610, IPC-J-STD-001).
• Experience with HPHT or oilfield downhole tools.
• Hydraulic systems training or certification.
• Leverage Lean, Six Sigma, or continuous improvement experience.
• Strong communication skills and ability to mentor junior technicians.
• Demonstrated ownership, accountability, and safety-first mindset.
