Based on your findings, you'll be responsible for designing initial concepts for how AMRs could be implemented, assessing if these ideas are actually practical and feasible for that specific site, and carefully documenting all your observations and plans.
Essentially, you're the expert who figures out the technical 'how' and 'if' for bringing AMR automation into the manufacturing world, laying the groundwork for successful deployments!
It requires someone with solid technical skills and leadership experience.
We are looking for a skilled and experienced Technical Solutions Lead to join our team as a Technical Solutions Lead.
In this crucial role, you will be at the forefront of evaluating manufacturing facilities for the potential implementation of Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs).
You'll lead a dedicated team of technical specialists onsite, diving deep into facility conditions, analyzing current material flow processes, and collaborating closely with plant personnel.
Your expertise will be key in designing conceptual AMR solutions, assessing their feasibility, and documenting all findings to pave the way for successful automation deployments.
Technical Background & Education
- Require a Bachelor's degree in a relevant engineering field (like Industrial Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Robotics Engineering, or a related technical discipline).
- Strong technical foundation is essential.
- Experience in Manufacturing/Industrial Environments:
- Proven experience working within manufacturing, production, or logistics/warehousing facilities.
This is crucial because the role involves evaluating real-world plant conditions and processes.
- Experience with material handling processes and systems is highly beneficial.
- Direct experience with automation technologies,



particularly robotics or Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs), is a major requirement.
Understanding how they work, their capabilities, limitations, and implementation challenges is key.
- Experience in evaluating, designing, or deploying automation solutions would be very relevant.
- Demonstrated experience leading technical teams.
The job explicitly states leading an onsite evaluation team.
- Ability to coordinate tasks, manage team members, provide technical guidance, and ensure team safety and efficiency.
- Experience conducting technical site surveys or evaluations.
- Ability to assess physical infrastructure (flooring, lighting, network, power, etc.) and understand how it impacts automation technology.
- Strong analytical skills, particularly in analyzing material flow processes, identifying bottlenecks, and mapping existing workflows (e.g., Value Stream Mapping, process mapping).
- Ability to collect and quantify data related to material movement.
- Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
- Proven ability to collaborate effectively with diverse stakeholders within a plant environment (e.g., Industrial Engineers, Manufacturing Planning & Logistics, Plant IT, operators, supervisors).
Serving as a primary technical point of contact requires strong interpersonal skills.
- Experience conducting interviews or workshops to gather requirements and insights.
- Solution Design and Feasibility Analysis Skills:




- Ability to translate findings from evaluations and process analysis into conceptual automation solutions using AMRs.
- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills to assess the technical and operational feasibility of proposed solutions.
- Ability to compare different AMR platforms and determine the best fit based on requirements and facility constraints.
Knowledge of different AMR navigation technologies (LiDAR, vision, etc.) is likely needed.
- Documentation and Reporting Skills:
- Experience creating detailed technical reports, summarizing findings, and documenting proposed solutions (including diagrams or layouts).
- Ability to present findings and recommendations clearly to technical and non-technical audiences.
- Travel: Position has requirement for onsite evaluations at manufacturing facilities, the ability and willingness to travel frequently would be a necessary qualification.
- Microsoft 360 Suite, including MS Project
- Ariba
- A strong technical foundation
- Experience in manufacturing or industrial environments:
- Experience with automation or robotics: While maybe not specifically AMRs depending on the company, experience with related automation is key.
- Leadership experience: Managing people and projects is necessary.
- Analytical skills: For process analysis and feasibility.
- Communication and collaboration skills: Essential for working with plant personnel and teams.
- Deep Company Knowledge: Understand the company's culture, internal processes, approval structures, and potentially the history of automation attempts or challenges within the organization.
- Existing Relationships and Network: Have established relationships with key people in different departments - Plant IT, Manufacturing E
