CBRE Global Workplace Solutions

About the Role

This position sits at the center of advanced industrial automation operations and is responsible for keeping highly automated equipment running safely, reliably, and at peak performance. As a Mechatronics and Robotics Technician, you will serve as a front line technical expert supporting integrated mechanical, electrical, and controls based systems that power alarge scale fulfillment and distribution environment.

You will work across interconnected automation platforms that include conveyor networks, robotic handling systems, automated packaging equipment, and sensor driven control systems. The role requires practical troubleshooting depth across electrical, mechanical, and controls layers, notjust component swap outs. You will be expected to diagnose failure modes, trace signals, validate device behavior, and restore system functionality with minimal supervision.

The role goes beyond routine maintenance. You will independently investigate faults, isolate root causes, and execute corrective repairs across robotic cells, automated conveyance, sortation equipment, drives, and smart sensing devices. You will regularly work inside control enclosures, on energized and de-energized equipment following safety procedure, and alongside live operations teams where response time and technical accuracy matter.

This is an ideal opportunity for technicians who enjoy complex troubleshooting, hands on technical work, and continuous learning in automation, robotics, and controls technology. The environment rewards diagnostic thinking, disciplined safety behavior, and ownership of equipment reliability outcomes.

What You Will Own and Deliver

+ Restore failed automation and robotic systems to operational     condition through structured troubleshooting

+ Take technical ownership of assigned equipment zones and critical     assets

+ Execute both planned and corrective maintenance with high     documentation accuracy

+ Identify repeat failure patterns and recommend reliability     improvements

+ Support rapid response repair activity during operational events     and unplanned downtime

+ Maintain readiness of critical spare parts, tools, and test     equipment

+ Provide technical feedback to reliability and engineering partners     on recurring failure points

Core Technical Responsibilities

+ Troubleshoot electro mechanical failures across automated material     handling, robotic, and packaging systems

+ Perform structured fault isolation using multimeters, clamp     meters, and basic diagnostic tools

+ Trace control circuits using electrical schematics, ladder     diagrams, and point to point wiring prints

+ Diagnose device level faults on PLC controlled equipment including     sensors, inputs, outputs, and actuators

+ Replace and recommission field devices including photo eyes,     proximity sensors, encoders, solenoids, and limit switches

+ Inspect and repair mechanical power transmission components     including chains, sprockets, belts, pulleys, couplings, and bearings

+ Service motors and drives including motor starters, contractors,     overloads, and variable frequency drives

+ Validate safety circuits including e stops, light curtains,     interlocks, and guard switches

+ Perform alignment, tensioning, and timing adjustments on high     speed conveyor and sortation equipment

+ Execute preventive and predictive maintenance tasks using task     standards and tolerance ranges

+ Capture failure codes, device states, and repair actions in CMMS     with clear technical notes

Systems and Technology Exposure

Technicians in this role regularly work with:

+ High speed conveyor and sortation systems including merges,     diverts, transfers, and accumulation zones

+ Robotic handling and automated workstations such as pick modules,     palletizing cells, or guided automation platforms

+ PLC based control systems at the field device level including     input and output devices and control panels

+ Motor control systems including starters, contractors, overload     protection, and variable speed drives

+ Electrical distribution panels and low voltage industrial control     circuits

+ Pneumatic systems including valves, cylinders, regulators, and air     preparation units

+ Hydraulic components where installed, including actuators and     control valves

+ Industrial safety systems including guarded zones, interlock     circuits, and emergency stop networks

+ Smart sensors including photoelectric, inductive, capacitive, and     barcode based detection devices

+ Maintenance and asset tracking platforms such as CMMS for work     orders and asset history

What You'll Need

+ Applicants must be currently     authorized to work in United States without the need for visa sponsorship     now or in the future.

+ High school diploma or     general education degree (GED).

+ 1 year of related experience     and/or training.

+ Proficiency using computers     and Microsoft Office Suite…
