Candidates should enjoy working in a fast-paced, mission-driven environment and be prepared to tackle a broad selection of challenges as the company grows.
Responsibilities
  • Ensure equipment readiness by monitoring fleet health, responding to production issues, and supporting proactive testing
  • Troubleshoot equipment and control systems including, sensors, motors, pumps, pneumatic actuators, PLC logic, six-axis robots, and software interfaces
  • Identify recurring patterns and improvement opportunities, and feed those findings back to the R&D team to inform permanent enhancements to the platform
  • Develop and maintain runbooks, troubleshooting guides, and operational procedures
  • Coach operators and technicians through real-time questions, helping the broader team build comfort with the control systems
  • Support commissioning and validation activities for automation changes and new systems

Requirements
  • Bachelor's in Electrical Engineering, Mechatronics Engineering, Systems Engineering, Process Engineering, or equivalent experience
  • 2+ years supporting automated production equipment, preferably within medical device or pharmaceutical manufacturing contexts
  • Hands-on experience wiring, configuring, and verifying electrical and control systems
  • Working knowledge of industrial communication protocols such as EtherCAT, Modbus TCP/IP, serial interfaces, and OPC-UA
  • Comfortable reading P&IDs, electrical schematics, and other technical drawings
  • Reading proficiency in IEC 61131-3 Structured Text and experience working with at least one major PLC platform (Beckhoff TwinCAT, Siemens TIA Portal, B&R)
  • Experience supporting integrated articulated robots (Kuka, ABB, Staubli, Fanuc)
  • Experience working in a GMP or comparably regulated environment, and comfort operating within change control, deviation, and CAPA processes
  • Must be able and willing to work an off-shift schedule (nights and/or weekends), with occasional travel (<15%)
  • Self-awareness, integrity, authenticity, and a growth mindset

Preferred Skills/Experience
  • Direct production experience with Beckhoff TwinCAT 3 and TwinSAFE
  • Experience with at least one major HMI / SCADA platform (Ignition, Wonderware, WinCC)
  • Familiarity with time-series and log tooling (e.g., InfluxDB, Grafana) for equipment diagnostics
  • Familiarity with Git or other source control for navigating code repositories
  • Proficiency in Python or another scripting language for ad-hoc data extraction and analysis
  • Prior experience supporting cell therapy, biotech, semiconductor, or other high-mix, high-stakes automated manufacturing platforms

$90,000 - $210,000 a year
