Do you find thrill in overcoming challenging electrical, controls and software problems? Do you work deliberately and with precision on projects to make them work right the first time?\nWho We Are:\nThermatool is the leading supplier of high frequency welders for the tube and pipe industry. If you look at any tubular product that you might encounter (water pipes, structural tubing, precision automotive components, etc.), it was likely made on a mill that depends on a Thermatool welder. Our welders employ radio frequencies to deliver eye-popping power using induction coupling: just like your wireless phone charger except 100,000 times as powerful. In combination with our sister companies, we lead the industry with a line of products for tube mills that include high speed flying shears that slice through metal while moving at a speed of over 1,000 feet per minute. For over 70 years, we have set the standard in our industry for quality, reliability and excellent service.\nThe Position:\nWe are seeking exceptional engineers with a background in industrial controls, PLCs and machine design to join our esteemed team to develop state-of-the-art industrial equipment for the most demanding applications and customers. Your job will require intense focus as you develop products across all lifecycle stages: concept, detailed design, manufacturing, field installation and long-term support.
