Job Description
Automation Technician (Entry-Level to Experienced)
Elgin, IL
2nd & 3rd Shift Openings
Up to $30/hr + Shift Differential
- 2nd Shift (2:30 PM – 11:00 PM): +$1/hr
- 3rd Shift (10:30 PM – 7:00 AM): +$2/hr
Paid Training on 1st Shift (2 weeks)
Build Your Automation Career — Even If You’re Just Getting Started
We’re working with a growing manufacturer of high-precision connectors that relies on advanced, proprietary automated assembly equipment designed and built in Germany. Due to rapid growth (expanding from 3 to 12 machines), we are adding multiple Automation Technicians to the team.
Whether you’re an experienced tech or a recent grad with hands-on training in robotics, PLCs, or automation (think UTI or similar programs), this is a strong opportunity to get your foot in the door and grow.
What You’ll Be Working On
- Highly automated, proprietary assembly machines
- Technologies including Beckhoff, Fanuc, Keyence, Festo, and PLC systems
- A fast-paced production environment where uptime and performance matter
What You’ll Do
- Troubleshoot and maintain automated production equipment (electrical & mechanical)
- Support PLCs, HMIs, sensors, and servo-driven systems
- Perform preventative maintenance to minimize downtime
- Read and interpret wiring diagrams, schematics, and technical documentation
- Assist with equipment improvements and process optimization
- Respond to production issues and help keep operations running efficiently
What They’re Looking For
- High school diploma or equivalent required
- Entry-level candidates welcome with relevant schooling, certifications, or technical training (robotics, automation, mechatronics, etc.)
- 1+ year of hands-on experience in maintenance or automation is a plus
- Basic understanding of PLCs, sensors, or industrial controls preferred
- Strong mechanical and electrical aptitude
- Willingness to learn and grow in a hands-on environment
Why This Role Stands Out
- Company growth = real career advancement opportunities
- Work on cutting-edge automated machinery not found everywhere
- Hands-on learning with industry-leading technologies
- Entry-level friendly with structured training
- High-impact role supporting critical production operations
Qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, age, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, disability, protected veteran status, or genetic information.
