The Electro-Mechanical Technician Level 3 is responsible for troubleshooting and preventative/predictive maintenance on various automated equipment at the Fairburn, Georgia location. This role requires flexibility in hours and includes overtime work as needed.
At roughly $32/hr, this posting sits about 15% above the $28/hr median for welding jobs across Georgia — toward the top of a $22–$37/hr middle band drawn from 163 postings with published pay. Put another way, it pays more than about 71% of the comparable postings we have wage data for. Pay that far above local median usually comes attached to something: a harder cert requirement, travel, night shift, or overtime that isn't really optional. Worth establishing which before you accept.
