Who You Are

As our new Senior Engineer (Sealer Proposal Engineering and System Design), you will be responsible for developing, validating, and presenting automation solutions through creation of RoboGuide Simulations, Process Studies, Engineering Scrolls, Process Engineering Reports (PERs) and Technical Proposal support activities. You will be transforming customer requirements into engineered concepts that are technically feasible, cost-effective, and executable. Through collaboration with our many stakeholders, your goal is to create optimized automation concepts utilizing FANUC robots, dispense equipment, machine vision, and associated process technologies. Your role ensures proposed solutions meet customer requirements while minimizing risk and supporting successful execution through simulation, cycle time analysis, reach studies and process validation. You must be a technically strong automation engineer with extensive RoboGuide experience and strong knowledge of robotic dispensing applications used in the OEM Automotive environment.
