SUMMARY OF POSITION:
This Automation Engineer will focus on automation implementation for injection molding, owning the troubleshooting of secondary ops and establishing/executing assembly processes and equipment.
JOB DUTIES & ESSENTIAL FUNCTIONS:
  • Implement automation objectives on the molding floor (cobots, pickers, conveyance, etc.) to reduce costs and increase operational efficiencies.
  • Provide a lead role in the development, installation, and programming of robotic work cells from concept to postproduction turn-over.
  • Own troubleshooting of secondary ops (pad printing, laser engraving, sonic welding, etc.).
  • Consult at the estimating phase for assembly opportunities & automation opportunities as directed and then implement the quoted process in manufacturing upon release.
  • Effectively communicate solutions to end-users as appropriate. Provide a highly visible customer focus.
  • Lead development of in-house robotic integration projects for new or continuous improvement projects.
  • Present and modify concepts for team understanding and approval.
  • Work with outside vendors to determine necessary parts and estimated budgets for projects.
  • Maintain and provide appropriate documentation regarding drawings, bills of material, budget tracking, safety, and program changes.
  • Understand and implement the integration of safety circuits, machine interfaces (SPI Interface, etc.), and peripheral controls and devices.
  • Work as a liaison with outside integrators and vendors as needed for special projects or programs.
  • Train and mentor production technicians and maintenance personnel regarding troubleshooting issues and documentation.
  • Assist with inspections, projects, or modifications at other facilities as needed.
  • This list of duties and responsibilities is not all inclusive and may be expanded to include other duties and responsibilities, as management may deem necessary from time to time.
