Technical Specialist

When a highly automated operation experiences a critical issue, every second counts. As a Technical Specialist at Dematic, you'll play a pivotal role in keeping a complex, fast-paced logistics operation running at peak performance. Working as part of a rotating day and night shift team, you'll act as the technical authority on shift, diagnosing complex faults, leading root-cause investigations and helping to prevent issues from recurring.
This is more than a maintenance role. You’ll combine hands-on technical expertise with leadership and coaching, helping to develop the capabilities of the wider engineering team while supporting one of the most advanced automated material handling environments in the industry.
If you're the person colleagues turn to when the difficult problems arise, and you enjoy sharing your knowledge as much as solving technical challenges, we'd love to hear from you.#
