Specific Responsibilities of this Position:
This Controls Engineer position supports a machine-intensive, high-volume production environment within a small, specialized engineering team responsible for the rollout and support of next-generation manufacturing technologies. The team will serve as the plant Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) for new Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs), and fleet management systems being introduced to improve material flow and production efficiency. This role is ideal for an engineer who enjoys working hands-on with automation, troubleshooting equipment on the production floor, and learning emerging technologies. Employees will receive training on the new AMR platforms and fleet management software and will play a critical role in deploying, optimizing, and supporting these systems throughout the facility.
• Respond to carry-over issues from previous shifts and support
troubleshooting efforts for automated manufacturing equipment.
• Assist maintenance and operations teams with equipment breakdowns,
automation faults, and production interruptions.
• Utilize PLCs (Allen Bradley and Siemens) primarily for troubleshooting and
fault diagnosis.
• Review and interpret controls logic to identify root causes of equipment
and automation issues.
