  • 1-5 years of experience and electrical / automation troubleshooting experience
  • Experience integrating systems into advanced manufacturing processes
  • Work Hours

  • Required Skills

  • Strong electro-mechanical skills with demonstrated experience in the successful implementation of automation and control system integration technologies in manufacturing processes.
  • Able to effectively work with external machine builders and system integrators for detail design, build and integration of later stages of machine system implementation.
  • Strong team player who takes personal ownership for their areas of responsibility.
  • Capable of executing project assignments with minimal supervision.
  • Effective problem solving and decision-making skills, with focus on safety.
