Are you an experienced controls engineer with a passion for industrial automation, drives, motors, and emerging technologies? Our client is seeking an Automation Controls Product Engineer to take ownership of a growing product line and become the technical expert behind innovative automation solutions used by manufacturers across North America.

This is an opportunity to move beyond project execution and into a strategic engineering role where you'll evaluate new technologies, influence product direction, support product launches, and work directly with suppliers and internal teams to bring world-class automation products to market.

Why Engineers Love This Opportunity

  • High-ownership engineering culture with freedom to make an impact
  • Low travel and excellent work-life balance
  • Standard business hours with no overtime expectations
  • Quarterly bonuses and generous profit-sharing program
  • Comprehensive training and ongoing professional development
  • Excellent health, dental, life insurance, and 401(k) benefits
  • Tuition reimbursement program
  • On-site fitness center and exercise classes

What You'll Do

  • Serve as the technical subject matter expert for drives, motors, gearmotors, and soft starters
  • Evaluate, test, and validate new automation products and technologies
  • Develop sample applications and demonstration projects
  • Support new product introductions, technical documentation, training, and product lifecycle management
  • Partner with suppliers to assess product offerings, technology roadmaps, and support capabilities
  • Drive quality improvements and cost-reduction initiatives
  • Provide advanced technical support to internal teams and customers
  • Collaborate across engineering, product management, marketing, and supplier organizations

What We're Looking For

  • Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or related technical field, or equivalent industry experience
  • 7+ years of experience in industrial automation, controls, system integration, product support, or product development
  • Strong experience with AC/DC drives, motors, gearmotors, or motion control technologies
  • Knowledge of PLCs, HMIs, servos, encoders, and industrial communication protocols
  • Experience evaluating, troubleshooting, testing, and applying automation products
  • Strong project management, communication, and organizational skills
  • Experience with UL, CSA, CE, RoHS, AutoCAD, or SolidWorks is a plus

Take the Next Step

If you're ready to leverage your automation expertise in a product-focused engineering role with outstanding work-life balance, career growth, and the opportunity to shape the future of industrial automation products, we want to hear from you.

Apply today and help drive the next generation of industrial automation technology.

To comply with some state laws, the annual base salary range for this position has been provided. The range given is broad and should be considered as a guideline only. Our client will consider a candidate's work experience, education/training, key skills, the salaries of current employees in similar roles, and other factors when extending an offer.
