Automation Engineer | Burton, MI

Salary Range: $78,000 - $123,000 depending on experience

Are you ready to take on a challenging and rewarding opportunity in automation engineering? The Pivot Group Network, a Michigan manufacturing-focused recruiting group, is committed to building meaningful connections in manufacturing. We partner with leading companies in the Burton area seeking Automation Engineers.

We are building our network of talent in this field across Michigan's manufacturing regions. Our partner companies may or may not have an immediate opening for this exact role today, but we actively look for skilled professionals in the regions where they operate. If there is alignment now or in the near future, we reach out.

This posting covers Automation Engineer opportunities with manufacturers based in and around Burton in Genesee County, within about 30 minutes of the city, including Lapeer, Fenton, Grand Blanc, and Holly.

The Opportunity

We partner with manufacturers across the Burton area seeking Automation Engineers who want more than a lateral move. These companies hire intentionally, and we connect them with professionals ready for roles that fit.

Usual Responsibilities

Maintain electrical schematics, control drawings, and equipment documentation.
Coordinate with maintenance and production teams on repairs and upgrades.
Run tests and validation for new programs and hardware changes.
Train operators and technicians on automated equipment operation.
Troubleshoot automated production equipment and controls issues during shifts.
Program and modify PLC, HMI, and robot logic for production changes.
Support installation and commissioning of new automation cells.
Monitor equipment performance and address recurring downtime causes.

Recommended Qualifications

Familiarity with industrial robots and machine safety standards.
Strong troubleshooting skills and ability to work across shifts.
Bachelor degree in electrical, mechanical, or controls engineering or equivalent experience.
Hands-on experience programming PLCs such as Allen-Bradley or Siemens.
Ability to read and interpret electrical schematics and control diagrams.
Experience supporting automated equipment in a production environment.

Bonus Qualifications

Lean manufacturing or Six Sigma training.
Experience with SCADA or data collection systems.
Robot programming certification.
Project management experience for capital equipment projects.
Experience with vision systems and industrial networking.

Job Titles That Should Apply

Robotics Engineer, Process Automation Engineer, PLC Programmer, Maintenance Engineer, Systems Integration Engineer, Controls Engineer, Automation Technician, Manufacturing Engineer, Electrical Controls Engineer

Work Authorization

Applicants must be authorized to work in the U.S. without current or future visa sponsorship. Visa sponsorship is not available.
