Ready to Shape the Future of Manufacturing?


Are you passionate about automation and technology and excited by the idea of making real, tangible improvements on the production floor? Imagine joining a company on the brink of substantial growth-where your ideas, problem-solving skills, and technical expertise can directly impact efficiency, quality, and innovation.

We're looking for a talented Automation & Controls Engineer to join a forward-thinking team that thrives on collaboration, creativity, and results. In this role, you'll have the chance to work with cutting-edge automation systems, robotics, and controls technology in a dynamic manufacturing environment-helping to shape processes that set industry standards.

Why You'll Love It Here
  • Competitive pay with weekly payroll for hourly employees
  • Comprehensive benefits and 401(k) with company match
  • Paid holidays, vacation, and tuition reimbursement
  • Quarterly bonus opportunities and clear paths for career advancement
  • A culture that values teamwork, innovation, and engagement
What You'll Be Doing
  • Designing, programming, and optimizing automation systems to streamline production
  • Troubleshooting PLC-controlled systems and robotics to ensure smooth operations
  • Collaborating with engineering, production, and maintenance teams to solve challenges and implement improvements
  • Supporting continuous improvement initiatives and innovative solutions in manufacturing processes
  • Providing hands-on support and training to operators and maintenance personnel
What You Bring to the Table
  • Bachelor's degree in Automation, Electrical, Mechanical Engineering, or related field
  • 3+ years of experience in automation engineering or industrial controls (manufacturing experience preferred)
  • Strong PLC programming skills, particularly in ladder logic
  • Hands-on experience with automation systems, sensors, drives, and SCADA/HMI systems
  • Problem-solving mindset, excellent communication, and a focus on safety
  • Bonus: Experience with Fanuc or Kawasaki robotics and ignition programming is a plus-but not required

The Environment
This is a hybrid of office and shop floor work. You'll interact directly with production processes and teams, so the ability to move comfortably around a manufacturing environment is important. Safety gear is required, and occasional travel to other sites may be necessary.
