Interest in technical growth, leadership opportunities, and contributing innovative ideas to improve automation solutions.
Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, project-driven environment with high customer expectations.
Strong commitment to safety, precision, and collaborative work practices.

Work EnvironmentThis role is primarily on-site, with regular travel to customer facilities (approximately 30% domestic travel) to support installation and commissioning of aerospace automation systems.
