Job Description

Role Overview

Pacific Scientific EMC is expanding and seeking a multidisciplinary Automation Engineer II to design and advance our automation systems. This role serves as the technical authority across mechanical, electrical, pneumatic, and optical domains, leading the design, qualification, and sustainment of equipment from early concept through full‑scale production. The Automation Engineer II translates program requirements into tooling, fixtures, and fully integrated automation lines, partnering with cross‑functional teams across multiple sites to scale processes from manual or semi‑automated to fully automated solutions.

The ideal candidate is truly multidisciplinary—comfortable designing fixtures in CAD, specifying pneumatic systems, troubleshooting integration issues on the production floor, and owning a system from initial sketch through production ramp‑up.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead system level design and scale up activities, taking processes from manual or semi-automated to fully automated production lines.
  • Design, test, and qualify automation systems according to established specifications and program requirements.
  • Design tooling and fixtures for manual, semi-automated, and automated processes, applying GD&T (geometric dimensioning and tolerancing) principles.
  • Translate system requirements into principles of operation and integration strategies for full automation lines.
  • Apply multidisciplinary engineering expertise across mechanical, pneumatic, electrical, and optical systems to deliver integrated automation solutions.
  • Serve as the subject matter expert for deployed automation platforms, guiding improvements and lifecycle management.
  • Develop manufacturing bills of materials, operating and maintenance procedures, spare parts lists, and preventive maintenance schedules.
  • Provide hands on training and troubleshooting support to sustain engineering and operations teams.
  • Lead system integration efforts, including requirements translation, architecture development, and functional validation.
  • Troubleshoot complex, multi technology systems and guide teams through root cause analysis.
  • Support factory deployments, FAT and SAT testing, and equipment qualification activities.
  • Document requirements specifications, functional descriptions, and system architecture to support long term sustainment.
  • Additional duties as assigned.

Required Skills & Qualifications

  • 2-5 years of progressive experience in automation engineering, including tooling and fixture design and multidisciplinary system integration, within an electronics, aerospace, defense, or automotive manufacturing environment.
  • BS in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Mechatronics, or a similar field.
  • Demonstrated experience designing and scaling automation systems from prototype through full production.
  • Working knowledge of GD&T, mechanical tooling and fixturing design, and system architecture development.
  • Experience in electronics systems engineering, gained in industries such as aerospace, defense, automotive, autonomous vehicles, or robotics.
  • Strong troubleshooting, documentation, and cross functional communication skills.
  • Behavior aligned to our guiding principles: We Win as One Team, We Solve Problems, We Learn by Doing, We Unlock Growth, and We Own Our Future.
  • PacSci EMC is an equal opportunity employer. Qualified candidates will be considered without regard to legally protected characteristics.
  • Must be a U.S. citizen.

Work Location & Travel

This role is on-site and travel of up to 50 percent should be expected across all site locations to support program needs.

This role can be performed at any of our three sites: (1) Hollister, CA, (2) Chandler, AZ or (3) Solon, OH.

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
