We’re hiring multiple Field Service Technicians to support advanced automated welding systems used across North America. These aren’t cookie-cutter roles—you’ll be part of a highly technical, hands-on team working on robotic systems, electrical builds, and precision hardware.

 

What you’ll be doing:

  • Troubleshoot and support automated welding cells with robotic arms
  • Work with PLC systems (Allen Bradley preferred) – basic ladder logic, debugging, and support
  • Read and interpret wiring diagrams and schematics
  • Perform electrical builds, panel wiring, and component replacement
  • Support installation, startup, and field service projects

What we’re looking for:

  • 2+ years of hands-on electrical or automation experience
  • Experience with PLCs and industrial controls
  • Comfortable doing both electrical AND light mechanical work
  • Background as an electrician, builder, or automation tech
  • Robotic arm experience = big plus
