  • Familiarity with vision systems (Keyence, Cognex) and integration of sensors, encoders, barcode readers, and industrial communications (EtherNet/IP, Profinet, Modbus).
  • Strong troubleshooting and diagnostic skills for both hardware and software; experience with instrumentation and test equipment.
  • Experience with LabVIEW, TestStand, or similar test automation frameworks is a plus.
  • Knowledge of hydraulic systems and electro-hydraulic controls, and familiarity with transmission-related systems is desirable.
  • Experience with PCB/CAD tools such as ORCAD, Cadence is a plus for custom electronics integration.
