- PLC programming experience (Allen Bradley preferred)
- Background in automation, controls, or electrical engineering within manufacturing
- Experience in high-speed manufacturing (automotive, packaging, bottling, food & beverage, pharma, etc.)
- Troubleshooting and problem-solving skills
- Medium voltage / switch gear experience is a plus
- Comfortable working a night shift pattern
