A day in the life
This is a field-first role. Most weeks you're on-site at a deploying or live facility, boots on the floor supporting commissioning, go-lives, and break-fix. You run and verify IO checks, configure and replace devices (MDR cards, sensors, scanners, drives), and get hands-on with PLC logic and HMIs to isolate electrical, controls, and mechanical faults, working side by side with OEM and RME teams. You drive high-sev events to recovery on the spot and lead the RCA to closure so the fix becomes a repeatable standard. Expect heavy travel, especially during onboarding, training, and site ramp-ups.
