We’re looking for an experienced Controls Technician to join our manufacturing team and keep automated production equipment running at peak performance.

Diagnose equipment failures and identify root causes

Work with manufacturing and engineering teams to resolve equipment issues
Respond to production equipment breakdowns and provide support when needed
Help improve equipment reliability, uptime, and overall production performance
What We’re Looking For
3–5 years of manufacturing, industrial controls, or automation experience
Hands-on PLC troubleshooting experience
Proven experience editing, modifying, and manipulating PLC code
Experience troubleshooting automated industrial equipment
Strong electrical and controls troubleshooting skills
Strong mechanical/electrical problem-solving ability
Ability to diagnose problems quickly and determine effective solutions
Ability to work independently with minimal supervision
A technical degree, certificate, or equivalent hands-on experience is preferred.
Why This Opportunity?
This is a hands-on controls role where your technical skills directly impact production. You’ll work with automated manufacturing equipment, solve challenging controls problems, and play an important role in keeping operations running safely and efficiently.
If you have strong PLC troubleshooting skills and hands-on experience modifying PLC code, we’d like to talk with you.
Apply today to learn more about the opportunity.
