  • Provide technical support while maintaining a professional, customer-focused attitude
Most travel is within Illinois, Wisconsin, Michigan, Ohio, and New York, typically lasting one to two weeks at a time. All travel expenses are reimbursed, and you'll have the option of using a personal or company credit card for travel.

  • Opportunity to work on a wide variety of custom automation projects across multiple industries
  • Excellent career path with the opportunity to become FANUC Master Certified and advance into an Automation Engineer role within approximately 3-5 years
  • Consistent overtime available (typically 40-50 hours per week)
  • Stable, growing organization with exposure to cutting-edge automation technology
