  • Support machine builds, system debug, runoffs, and final commissioning
  • Optimize cycle times, performance, and repeatability
  • Perform offline programming, backups, and system modifications
  • Troubleshoot robotic, electrical, and controls-related issues

What We’re Looking For
  • 3+ years of FANUC robot programming experience in an industrial setting
  • Strong background in robotic automation and motion control
  • Experience integrating robots with PLC-based control systems
  • Ability to troubleshoot robotic, electrical, and communication issues
  • Comfortable reading electrical schematics and mechanical drawings
  • Willingness to travel occasionally (limited)
Nice to Have
  • Experience with custom automation or special machinery
  • FANUC applications (handling, welding, paint, or material handling)
  • Vision system integration
  • PLC experience with Allen-Bradley or Siemens
  • Commissioning/startup experience

Why Consider This Role?
  • Employee-owned company with strong stability and culture
  • Exposure to complex, custom-built automation system
  • Work alongside a highly technical and collaborative engineering team
  • Long-term project visibility (12–18 months) with growth potential
