Field Service Engineer - Automation Industry

About the Team

We are a smaller, people-first company where teamwork, adaptability, and humor are part of the job. All of our leaders have grown into their positions at ProAutomated, meaning your manager has done exactly what they are asking you to do. We hold each other to high standards, accept that none of us are perfect, and push for excellence. You will be surrounded by a team that has your back and knows your name.

About the Role

This role is for those who would rather be on the move than behind a desk. You will partner with system integrators and manufacturers to ensure automation projects work flawlessly when it matters most. Instead of installing systems yourself, you will support data center startups and lead startup, checkout, and acceptance testing for warehouse fulfillment and manufacturing systems in industries like food and beverage.

You will thrive if you can laugh through flight delays, figure things out on the fly, and find satisfaction in solving complex problems. There is no office to report to; you will be away from home while working, experiencing new cities and tackling unique projects across North America. Typical travel rotations follow a days-on/days-off schedule (5-2, 10-4, or 14-7), ensuring every project brings new challenges and new locations.

Our Culture & Values

We believe in transparency and trust. We invest in your development through paid training and annual merit raises, acting as your biggest cheerleaders of growth even if you eventually move on. We value diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment where all team members feel respected and supported.

Hiring Process

We are opening our 2026 hiring pipeline now for curious, adaptable problem-solvers. If you are new to electrical systems, programming, or communication networking, this role may not yet be the right fit, as our four-week paid training requires a basic foundation in these areas.

To apply, submit your information to get on our radar for early 2026 hiring. Principals only—please do not contact recruiters.
