Candidates will be leveled based on experience, technical capability, and demonstrated skills. This role supports advanced material handling systems including AS/RS, sortation, shuttle systems, and facility infrastructure. What You'll Do Serve as the final technical escalation point for complex automation, controls, electrical, fabrication, and facility-related failures prior to engineering or external support. Lead advanced diagnostics on automated systems including AS/RS, shuttle systems, goods-to-person automation, sortation equipment, and integrated material handling platforms. Provide expert troubleshooting support for facility infrastructure such as power distribution, dock systems, building mechanical systems, and safety-critical assets. Perform and oversee light-to-medium fabrication and repair work (e.g., cutting, drilling, grinding, welding, and bracket/guard fabrication) to support equipment reliability, safety improvements, and facility needs. Provide advanced support for building maintenance and facility repairs (e.g., doors/docks, basic carpentry/patching, piping/plumbing components, and mechanical systems) and coordinate specialized vendor work as needed to ensure safe, compliant operation. Partner with Controls Engineering on system diagnostics, validation testing, and safe system recovery during complex automation events. Lead formal root cause analysis for major downtime events and chronic failures; develop corrective actions with measurable reliability outcomes.
