Job Description
Troubleshooting and repairing complex electromechanical and pneumatic systems will be a significant part of your responsibilities. You will utilize diagnostic tools, test equipment, and schematics to identify the root cause of equipment failures and implement effective solutions. This role also involves programming and modifying ladder logic, PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) programs, HMI (Human Machine Interface) software, and robot controllers for various industrial applications. You will need to develop and implement improvements to existing automation systems to enhance performance, safety, and reliability. Working closely with engineering teams, you will contribute to the design and integration of new automation solutions. You will maintain detailed records of maintenance activities, repairs, and modifications in compliance with company standards. Safety is paramount; you will ensure all work is performed in accordance with safety regulations and company policies. This is a remote role, requiring you to manage your work independently and potentially travel to client sites for specific, on-site interventions as needed, although the primary mode of work is remote. The ideal candidate will have an Associate's or Bachelor's degree in Industrial Technology, Electrical Engineering Technology, Mechatronics, or a related field, along with extensive practical experience. Proven expertise in PLC programming (e.g., Siemens, Allen-Bradley), HMI development, and robotic systems (e.g., FANUC, KUKA, ABB) is essential. Strong diagnostic and troubleshooting skills for electrical, mechanical, and pneumatic systems are required. Familiarity with VFDs (Variable Frequency Drives) and servo systems is highly desirable. Excellent problem-solving abilities and a proactive approach to maintenance are critical.
