  • Support collaborative robotic applications and identify opportunities to incorporate robotics into manufacturing processes.
  • Partner with Corporate IT on projects involving industrial networks, system integration, or onsite technical support.
  • Contribute to continuous-improvement, equipment-reliability, and cost-reduction initiatives.
  • Travel occasionally to other Lasko facilities as business needs require.
  • Perform other duties as assigned.

  • Bachelor’s degree in Engineering or a related technical discipline, or an equivalent combination of education and relevant experience.
  • Five to ten years of technical experience within a manufacturing environment.
  • Demonstrated experience developing, modifying, and troubleshooting PLC programs.
  • Strong knowledge of electrical control systems, industrial networks, and electronic equipment.
  • Working knowledge of mechanical, pneumatic, and hydraulic systems.
  • Ability to read and interpret electrical schematics, technical drawings, and equipment documentation.
  • Hands-on experience wiring equipment, building control cabinets, and configuring HMI panels.
  • Proficiency with Microsoft Office applications.
  • Ability to provide and use basic hand tools required for the position.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Detail-oriented with a commitment to producing accurate, high-quality work.
  • Highly organized and able to manage projects systematically from concept through completion.
  • Self-motivated and capable of working independently with limited supervision.
  • Dependable, responsive, and able to support time-sensitive manufacturing needs.
  • Able to work effectively in a fast-paced environment and manage competing priorities.
