About the Role

We are expanding our Automation Development team and are seeking Controls Engineers to support the design and build of highly advanced, custom automation and robotic equipment for autonomous vehicle production. This is a hands-on role focused on conceptual, in-house engineered systems—not repetitive builds or catalog automation.

Engineers in this group own projects end-to-end, from early concept and proof-of-principle through programming, debug, factory acceptance testing, and on-site integration. The current flagship project supports a next-generation autonomous vehicle platform, with the first production units already shipped.

This role is ideal for Controls Engineers coming from systems integrators or custom machine builders who enjoy variety, ownership, and technically challenging work.

Key Responsibilities

• Design, program, and debug PLC, HMI/SCADA, robotics, servo, and machine vision systems
• Develop control architectures for custom automation and robotic equipment
• Review electrical schematics and contribute to hardware and network architecture

• Travel is limited to 4 U.S. manufacturing locations (California, Texas, Nevada)

Qualifications

• Experience in custom automation, robotics, or systems integration
• PLC programming experience ( Siemens preferred, Rockwell/Allen-Bradley also acceptable )
• Engineers proficient in Rockwell who are open to transitioning to Siemens are strongly encouraged to apply
• Experience with HMI/SCADA platforms (WinCC, Ignition, FactoryTalk, or similar)
• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Controls, Mechatronics, Automation, or related field (or equivalent experience)

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

• Work on fully conceptual, in-house designs with protected intellectual property
• Exposure to cutting-edge autonomous vehicle and robotics technology
• Projects that most automation houses and integrators never get access to
• Strong compensation, Day-1 benefits, and long-term growth potential
• Collaborative engineering culture with high technical standards and visibility

Job Summary:

Hands-on technician to assist with production troubleshooting and support projects to improve manufacturing methods. Assist manufacturing engineers to address equipment and tooling needs to reduce costs and improve product quality on fans, wheels, blower packages, and corresponding component parts.

Responsibilities:

• Under technical direction, troubleshoot and analyze manufacturing problems and implement corrective actions for high quality, efficient manufacturing solutions.
• Support workflow analysis, work methods, plant and department layouts for improved product flow in production.
• Help identify required tools, jigs and fixtures, or other new or special equipment required for new production or improvements to existing production lines.
• Assist in the development of justifications for the purchase of manufacturing equipment.
• Assist with the installation and debugging of production equipment.
• Update and maintain visual and written work guidelines.
• Update and maintain manufacturing routings.
• Assist in the development of manufacturing infrastructure to integrate or deploy new manufacturing processes.
• Perform time studies and monitor or measure manufacturing processes to identify ways to reduce losses, decrease time requirements, or improve quality.
• Perform other manufacturing tasks as assigned.
