What you're bringing to the role...

• University Degree in Engineering or extensive applied Engineering technical training and experience.
• Proven analytical and problem-solving abilities – ability to think on your feet
• Confidence to communicate any questions or ideas early and often.
• Ability to effectively prioritize and execute on the needs of multiple clients simultaneously, and manage time independently.
• Strong attention to detail and ability to produce detailed documents and reports. Strong oral and written proficiency is required.
• Expertise and experience with machine vision (optical/thermal) and deploying camera hardware into industrial environments.
• Expertise and experience with Process Control, Process Automation, Quality Control, and associated compliance and process standards.
• Experience with control network design and implementation, Linux‑based operating systems, and PLC programming would be a benefit.
• The ability to pick up new technologies quickly and demonstrate proficiency and expert understanding.
• Demonstrated ability to grow your knowledge as the team grows, and to take on increasing responsibility for providing direction.
• Strong project management and leadership skills.
• Part of this job may have light physical demands to assist with customer order fulfillment.
• You may be required to travel extensively throughout North America, and sometimes on short notice. (Note: some manufacturing facilities require pre‑access drug screen testing to be on‑site, and you will be required to pass a screening as a requirement for this position.)
