Job description

Warehouse Automation Technician

Full-Time | On-Site | Work with Cutting-Edge Robotics

Step Into the Future of Warehousing; This isn’t your typical warehouse role.

As a Warehouse Automation Technician, you’ll be at the center of a fast-moving, tech-driven operation—monitoring and interacting with a fleet of robotic systems that keep our facility running at peak performance. If you enjoy problem-solving, hands-on work, and working with innovative technology, this is your opportunity to be part of something bigger.


What You’ll Do

In this role, you’ll take ownership of the automation systems that drive our operation:

Monitor and manage warehouse automation technologies in real time 

Troubleshoot robotic systems and resolve operational interruptions 

Use tablets or mobile devices to interact directly with robotic equipment 

Escalate complex issues and track system performance 

Investigate root causes of system failures and contribute to continuous improvement 

Support overall warehouse flow by ensuring systems are operating efficiently 

Utilize internal applications to monitor system health and performance 


What We’re Looking For

We’re looking for individuals who are both hands-on and solution-oriented:

Strong problem-solving skills and ability to think on your feet 

Comfortable working in a fast-paced, active warehouse environment 

Ability to interact with web-based systems and applications 

Mechanical aptitude or technical curiosity is a big plus 

Experience with Microsoft SQL or data systems (preferred but not required) 

Familiarity with tools, safety equipment, or working at heights is helpful 


Physical & Work Environment

This is a hands-on role that requires both awareness and mobility:

Must be able to lift up to 40 lbs 

Comfortable working at heights up to 60 feet when necessary 

Ability to step over, under, and navigate steel rail systems 


Why This Role Stands Out

Work directly with automation and robotics technology 

Be part of a forward-thinking, innovative operation 

Gain valuable experience in a rapidly growing industry 

Every shift brings new challenges and problem-solving opportunities 

Play a key role in keeping operations running smoothly 


Who This Role Is Perfect For

Warehouse professionals looking to move into automation/tech-focused roles 

Mechanically inclined individuals who enjoy fixing and troubleshooting 

Candidates who like hands-on work with a technical edge 

Problem solvers who thrive in fast-paced environments 


Ready to Take Control of the System?

If you’re looking for more than just a job—and want to work with technology that’s shaping the future of logistics—apply now to become a Warehouse Automation Technician.
