Job Description (General Summary)
Some engineering roles hand you a playbook and ask you to follow it. This isn't one of them.
We're building a new team with a single mission: make our systems perform at their absolute best. As a Test Engineer on our Business Benefits Team, you won't just validate that equipment works - you'll be on the ground at customer sites figuring out how to make it work better. You'll evaluate real-world performance, diagnose what's limiting it, and develop the mechanical, controls, and software changes needed to unlock peak capability. Then you'll prove it with data.
This role demands someone who thrives on autonomy. You'll operate with significant independence at customer sites during startup, commissioning, and sustained optimization - often for extended periods. There's no script for what you'll encounter. You'll need sharp critical thinking, a physics-grounded understanding of how things move and break, and enough programming fluency to collaborate shoulder-to-shoulder with controls engineers on real solutions. You'll own the vision, the strategy, and the results.
But you won't be on an island. You'll work closely with talented mechanical and controls engineers, translating what you learn in the field into design improvements that shape the next generation of deployments. What you discover on site feeds directly back into the organization - your work doesn't just fix one system, it makes every future system better.
This is a customer-facing role focused on our Activated Roller Belt (ARB) Equipment platform. You'll communicate directly with customers about what changes are needed and why, maintaining alignment on how systems are intended to operate. That means you need to be as clear and professional in a conference room as you are resourceful on a plant floor.
If you're the kind of engineer who gets restless when things aren't optimized, who'd rather be solving hard problems on site than watching from a desk, and who finds genuine satisfaction in making complex systems run the way they should - we want to talk to you.
