Business Unit Director – Industrial Automation & Machine Vision Travel: Frequent travel to manufacturing plants in Mexico and the United States
Languages: Professional Spanish and English The opportunity
Labor Mexicana is building a new business unit focused on industrial automation, machine vision, real-time quality data and intelligent manufacturing solutions.
This is not a purely engineering or R&D; position. We are looking for a business-minded technical leader who can turn industrial vision and automation capabilities into profitable customer solutions.
Approximately 50% of the role is commercial. The selected person will be expected to:
Meet directly with manufacturing customers and identify problems worth solving. Translate quality and production needs into technically feasible proposals. Define scope, architecture, pricing, implementation time and expected business value. Prepare and present technical-commercial proposals. Lead demonstrations, pilots and proof-of-concept projects. Defend the solution with Quality, Operations, Engineering, Purchasing and Plant Management.



Build the business case and actively participate in negotiation and closing. Maintain healthy project margins and identify opportunities to expand successful applications to additional lines or plants. Develop relationships with OEMs, Tier 1/Tier 2 suppliers, technology partners and industrial associations. Help build a repeatable portfolio of vision and automation solutions—not only execute one-off projects. The other 50% is technical leadership: designing the solution, selecting the appropriate hardware and algorithms, supervising development, validating performance in real production conditions and ensuring successful commissioning.
Success in this position will be measured equally by:
Revenue, qualified pipeline, pilots converted into paid projects and project margin. Technical performance, successful plant implementation, customer acceptance and reliability in production. A strong candid
