Role OverviewHiring an Equipment / Automation Engineer to get these lines installed, running, and reliable — and to keep making them better over time. You own the machines: commissioning each line with the integrator, then owning uptime, controls, and continuous improvement once it is running.
What You Will Do
Land the lines: Lead installation and bring-up with the integrator. Own SAT — validate each line against spec and drive the punch list to closure. Keep them running: Own equipment uptime and reliability — PMs, spares, failure analysis, and fast troubleshooting when something goes down. Own the automation: Debug and improve the control systems — PLCs, robotics, motion, vision, and safety. Make them better: Improve uptime, OEE, and equipment performance over time; implement upgrades and changes. Document it: Maintain machine specs, electrical/mechanical drawings, spare-parts lists, and PM procedures. Work the integrator: Be the technical point of contact to the integrator for issues, changes, and support.
Why It Might Be a Fit
B.S. in Electrical, Mechanical, Mechatronics, or Controls engineering, or equivalent hands-on experience. 8+ years in equipment, automation, or controls engineering with hands-on ownership of automated production equipment. Has personally commissioned automated lines — SAT, bring-up, and debug — working with integrators or OEMs. Hands-on PLC programming on Allen-Bradley and Siemens — able to read, modify, and debug line logic directly. FANUC robot programming and troubleshooting across servo/motion, machine vision, and pneumatics. Machine safety systems: Safety PLCs and safety categories, robot safety, light curtains and guarding, and LOTO. Able to read and interpret mechanical drawings and electrical schematics. Track record keeping equipment running — uptime/OEE, PMs, and root-cause failure analysis (DMAIC, 5-Why, Fishbone, 8D). Able to operate independently on-site.
