Position Overview

We are seeking two highly capable AGV (Automated Guided Vehicle) Technicians to support commissioning, integration, and Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT) of large-scale industrial robotic systems.

These technicians will work hands-on in our test lab and production environment performing mechanical assembly validation, electrical checkout, system commissioning, troubleshooting, structured testing, and pre-FAT verification. This role is critical to ensuring our AGV systems meet customer, safety, and performance requirements before shipment.

This is not a basic assembly role — this is a high-responsibility technical position supporting complex robotic platforms used in advanced industrial environments.

Job Description

Mechanical & Structural Validation

• Perform final mechanical inspections of AGV assemblies
• Verify torque specifications, fastener integrity, and structural alignment
• Conduct frame, rack, and chassis validation checks
• Support load testing and structural verification activities
• Identify and document mechanical non-conformances

Electrical & Controls Checkout

• Perform electrical continuity checks and harness verification
• Assist with power-up procedures and safe energization of units
• Validate sensor functionality (encoders, proximity sensors, limit switches, etc.)
• Support I/O testing and system verification
• Troubleshoot wiring, component faults, and integration issues

Commissioning & Pre-FAT Testing

• Support initial AGV commissioning and startup
• Execute structured test protocols prior to Factory Acceptance Test (FAT)
• Conduct motion testing and safety verification
• Verify communication between AGV and control systems
• Document test results and support corrective action

Test Lab & Validation Support

• Execute repeatable validation procedures in lab environment
• Support simulation testing and functional verification
• Assist engineers in performance benchmarking and root cause investigations
• Capture test data and provide structured feedback to engineering

Documentation & Continuous Improvement

• Record test results, discrepancies, and corrective actions
• Support development and refinement of work instructions
• Maintain clean, organized test areas and documentation discipline
• Contribute to process improvement initiatives

Requirements

• Associate’s degree in Mechatronics, Industrial Maintenance, Robotics Technology, Electrical Technology, Mechanical Technology or equivalent hands-on technical experience
• Strong mechanical aptitude
• Ability to read mechanical drawings and electrical schematics
• Experience using multimeters, torque tools, basic diagnostic tools
• Comfortable working around industrial equipment
• Strong troubleshooting mindset
• High attention to detail

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with AGVs, robotics, or automated systems
• PLC, CODESYS, RFID Scanner, LIDAR, general sensor/laser familiarity (basic troubleshooting level)
• Industrial safety training (OSHA preferred)
• Commissioning or FAT experience
• Experience working in a structured test or validation environment

Physical Requirements

• Ability to work around large industrial equipment
• Ability to lift 50 lbs.
• Standing, kneeling, and working in mechanical spaces
• Working around powered equipment and battery systems

What We’re Looking For

We are looking for technicians who:

• Take pride in quality and precision
• Are comfortable troubleshooting complex systems
• Can work independently but also support engineers
• Understand that testing and commissioning work requires discipline
• Want to grow in advanced robotics and automation

Why This Role Matters

This position directly supports the release of high-value robotic systems to major industrial customers. The AGV Technician plays a critical role in ensuring each unit meets structural, electrical, and performance standards prior to shipment.

Strong performance in this role can lead to growth opportunities in commissioning, field service, engineering support, or advanced robotics specialization.
