Industrial Robotics Service & Calibration Specialist

Are you the go‑to troubleshooter everyone calls when automation stops? If parsing schematics, dialing in sensors, and rescuing a stalled robot in a tight spot sounds like your perfect day, Symbotic’s new Jackson, GA site wants you. Your Mission Become the on‑site expert across mechanical, PLC, electrical, and electronic subsystems powering automated adapters, vertical lifts, conveyors, and a fleet of robotic vehicles. Keep material moving—inspect, calibrate, repair, and modify systems to hit throughput targets and cases per hour. Respond to anomalies fast: use wiring diagrams, schematics, and advanced test gear to pinpoint issues. Execute inspections on schedule, document parts and labor thoroughly, and close work orders in the CMMS. Communicate clearly about production impacts and provide realistic time‑to‑repair estimates. Recover vehicles in the Symbotic Matrix select system—even in restrictive environments. Handle minor fabrication/utility work: machine holes/brackets, cut steel, align sensors, install Unistrut. Own robotic arm setup, calibration, troubleshooting, and tool changes. Champion 5S every shift; step into Cell Operator responsibilities when needed; take on other tasks assigned by leadership. Growth & Schedule Launch with a Monday–Friday day shift. Transition to 24/7 operations with two 12‑hour teams: Team A: Sunday–Tuesday + alternating Wednesday, 6:00 AM–6:00 PM or 6:00 PM–6:00 AM Team B: Thursday–Saturday + alternating Wednesday, 6:00 AM–6:00 PM or 6:00 PM–6:00 AM We’re hiring those ready to start on days and pivot to either team when the site scales. Do You Have What It Takes? Associate degree/cert in electronics, automotive, automation, or manufacturing—or equivalent experience (preferred). At least 3 years working with mechanical automation systems (or a strong educational equivalent). Advanced troubleshooting chops and fluency with electro‑mechanical diagrams. Comfort operating and running automated systems. PLC knowledge and troubleshooting experience. Proven inspection skills; able to work independently from procedures/manuals. Work Conditions Reality Check Steep stairs, elevated railings, and heights reaching 45 feet. Confined areas down to 24 inches. Temperature swings from 105° to 32° Fahrenheit. Construction phases require PPE: hard hat, safety vest, steel‑toe footwear, safety glasses, hearing protection, and fall protection (e.g., harness). Lift up to 50 lbs; move up to 80 lbs safely and efficiently. Stand/walk 10–12 hours; frequent reaching; climb, balance, stoop, kneel, crouch, crawl as needed. Capable of feeling, seeing, hearing, bending, twisting, stooping, pushing, pulling, balancing, gripping, climbing, crawling, sitting, handling objects, and repetitive movement using both hands and feet. Safety compliance is a must. Strengths & Tech Stack Strengths: Mechanical troubleshooting; electrical troubleshooting and repair; working with 120/208/240/480 VAC power. Technologies: VFDs, PLCs, conveyor systems, servo motors. Bring your curiosity, grit, and precision. We’ll provide the platform where your skills keep world‑class automation running.
