The Pivot Group is dedicated to building meaningful connections and supporting community growth.

Recommended Qualifications
  • Proficiency in PLC programming (e.g., Rockwell, Siemens) and troubleshooting.
  • Experience with HMI/SCADA system design, development, and integration.
  • Hands-on experience with industrial robotics programming and integration.
  • Strong understanding of industrial networking protocols (e.g., Ethernet/IP, Profinet).
  • Ability to read, interpret, and design electrical control schematics.
Bonus Qualifications
  • Experience with industrial robotics platforms (e.g., FANUC, KUKA, ABB)
  • Proficiency in industrial vision systems (e.g., Cognex, Keyence)
  • Familiarity with SCADA/MES integration and industrial database solutions (e.g., SQL)
  • Knowledge of Industrial IoT (IIoT) architectures and edge computing
  • Experience with advanced CAD software for electrical design (e.g., AutoCAD Electrical, EPLAN)
