Senior Automation Systems Reliability Technician

Shape the uptime of our Customer Fulfillment Center

Picture your day: you arrive to a humming CFC, scan overnight alerts, and prioritize preventive tasks on conveyors, robotic packing cells, AMRs, and print-and-apply systems. A sorter motor shows early signs of failure—you diagnose, source parts, and return the line to peak performance before the first shift ramps up. By afternoon, you’re mentoring a junior tech through safe LOTO steps and reviewing PLC fault codes to eliminate a recurring jam. You wrap up by logging work orders and scheduling the next PMs to keep operations running flawlessly.

What you’ll do

• Own preventive and corrective maintenance on automated equipment across the CFC—conveyors, merges, sorters, VFDs, motors, robotic packing, AMRs, and print-and-apply labelers.
• Lead by example: guide less-experienced technicians on equipment operation, troubleshooting, safe work practices, and documentation.
• Plan and execute routine PMs; identify, order, and replace parts to complete repairs quickly and accurately.
• Respond to service requests with minimal supervision, troubleshoot controls and mechanical issues, and resolve faults without disrupting distribution operations.
• Interpret machine and building drawings and use them to diagnose issues efficiently.
• Keep the workshop organized; maintain test gear, tools, and maintenance equipment.
• Champion safety—document potential hazards, communicate them to the Facility Maintenance Manager and Maintenance Supervisor, and follow established SOPs and LOTO.
• Support our Safety Culture and MSC Culture; participate in safety teams, offer safety improvements, and help leaders identify and mitigate risks.
• Enter accurate data for work orders and time sheets; participate in special projects and other duties as needed.

What you bring

• High school diploma or equivalent; certification or degree in a related maintenance discipline.
• 5+ years of hands-on, job-related maintenance experience in industrial/warehouse environments.
• Training on automation equipment and 2+ years troubleshooting/repairing controls, including PLC-based systems (programming a plus, not required).
• Strong knowledge of conveyor components (merges, sorters, VFDs, motors) and proficiency reading electrical, hydraulic, and pneumatic schematics.
• Comfort operating scissor/boom lifts and working at heights up to 50 ft; strict adherence to LOTO.
• Calm under pressure with a bias for speed and efficiency.
• Experience with robotic packing, AMR, modular picking, and print-and-apply labelling systems.
