Support the implementation of Smart Factory and Industry 4.0 automation initiatives within a manufacturing environment.
Troubleshoot and program PLCs to ensure reliable operation of automated equipment and manufacturing systems.
Interpret and work from electrical schematics to diagnose issues and support equipment integration and modifications.
Contribute to the design, implementation, and optimization of AGV (Automated Guided Vehicle) systems.
Support the deployment, integration, and performance of AS/RS (Automated Storage & Retrieval Systems) within the facility.
Assist with manufacturing systems integration, including WMS, MES, and industrial IoT solutions.

Support large-scale automation launches, including preparation, testing, validation, and post-launch stabilization.
Participate in cross-functional meetings to communicate project status, technical risks, and mitigation plans.
Adapt work focus from a mix of project coordination and hands-on support to primarily hands-on responsibilities as launch activities increase.
