Prepare and review electrical, hydraulic, and pneumatic control drawings for new equipment and system upgrades
Develop system documentation including functional specifications, control narratives, operator manuals, maintenance documentation, and validation protocols
Ensure all control system designs comply with applicable US medical waste, environmental, and machine safety regulations
Work closely with suppliers, system integrators, and external service providers to deliver projects on time and to specification
Drive continuous improvement in automation performance, reliability, safety, and sustainability

About You:

Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechatronics, Automation Engineering, or a related discipline
8+ years of experience in a controls or automation engineering role
Strong PLC and HMI programming experience with platforms such as Allen‑Bradley, Siemens, Beckhoff, or Automation
Direct Hands‑on industrial robotics experience including programming, commissioning, and safety integration (FANUC, ABB, KUKA, Hyundai, or similar)
Strong machine vision experience using Cognex, Keyence, OpenCV, or comparable systems
Solid understanding of industrial communication protocols including EtherNet/IP, Modbus, and OPC UA
Experience with motion control, servo systems, and safety‑rated automation components
Ability to read and create electrical schematics, P&IDs, and mechanical drawings
Experience working in regulated or safety‑critical environments such as medical, pharmaceutical, or waste processing is highly desirable
Strong troubleshooting, analytical, and problem‑solving skills
Excellent written and verbal communication skills and the ability to collaborate across cross‑functional teams
Ability to work independently and manage projects with multiple stakeholders and vendors
Willingness to travel domestically and internationally as required

Why Join Daniels?

Work on large‑scale, complex industrial automation systems with real‑world impact
Be part of a rapidly growing organization investing heavily in robotics, machine vision, and advanced controls
High autonomy with strong engineering influence and end‑to‑end system ownership
