Configure and commission drives and motion control systems, including servos and variable frequency drives (VFDs).
Integrate and support controls hardware such as sensors, remote I/O, servos, VFDs, machine vision systems, and barcode readers.
Implement and maintain industrial networking protocols such as Profinet, Ethernet/IP, EtherCAT, and related technologies.
Program, integrate, and troubleshoot 6-axis industrial robots, primarily FANUC, including cell integration and path optimization.
Leverage iRVision or similar machine vision tools (when applicable) to enhance robotic guidance and inspection processes.
Collaborate with cross-functional teams in automation, mechanical, and manufacturing engineering to deliver robust production solutions.
Present and verbally walk through at least one recent project (completed within the past two years) that demonstrates your PLC or robotics expertise during the interview process.
Document control system designs, configurations, and changes to support maintainability and knowledge sharing.
Contribute to continuous improvement initiatives to increase equipment reliability, throughput, and safety.
