* Ability to write and interpret software flow documents
* Ability to read, understand and create electrical schematics
* Passion for comprehensive system design, control systems, and machine safety
* Ability to manage large complex projects with skills in both mechanical and electrical industrial automation
* Ability to be adaptive to various project sizes and types
* Ability to internalize standards in many industries
* Great communication skills with both customer and internal shop personnel
* Excellent organizational skills
* Ability to thrive in a fast-paced environment while exhibiting accuracy and decisiveness
* Ability to see the big picture but also manage all the small details for various projects going on at the same time
* Ability to work closely with customers, both remotely and on-site, to ensure their requirements and timelines are kept
* Knowledge of leak testing and vacuum technology is a plus
The pay range is the lowest to highest compensation we reasonably in good faith believe we would pay at posting for this role. We may ultimately pay more or less than this range. Employee pay is based on factors like relevant education, qualifications, certifications, experience, skills, seniority, location, performance, union contract and business needs. This range may be modified in the future.
We offer comprehensive benefits including medical/dental/vision insurance, HSA, FSA, 401(k), and life, disability & ADD insurance to eligible employees. Salaried personnel receive paid time off. Hourly employees are not eligible for paid time off unless required by law. Hourly employees on a Service Contract Act project are eligible for paid sick leave.
