Bridor USA is opening a modern industrial bakery in Salt Lake City. We’re looking for a Mechatronics Technician who thrives on automating complex processes, partnering across teams, and elevating product quality at scale. From first power-up to steady-state operations, you’ll shape how our lines perform.
Your mission
You’ll be a founding member of the maintenance and automation function, reporting to the Maintenance Manager. To prepare, you’ll receive immersive, hands‑on training at our facilities in Vineland, NJ and Boucherville, Canada. Expect travel roughly every two weeks until our Salt Lake City plant is fully operational in early 2026.
Imagine this scenario
A vision system flags product variability on a packaging line. You dive into the HMI, validate IO, then refine PLC logic and adjust a drive parameter. The result: tighter control, reduced waste, and consistent quality—documented, compliant, and repeatable.
Scope of impact
Keep automated equipment humming: PLCs, HMIs, sensors, conveyors, and packaging systems
Execute preventive maintenance and calibration for control systems/instrumentation
Respond to and resolve automation issues rapidly to cut downtime
Partner with Production, QA, and Engineering to uphold food safety and operational excellence
Adjust and optimize control logic to lift throughput, reduce scrap, and improve uniformity
Maintain rigorous records: changes, PMs, calibrations, and compliance documentation
Operate to the highest standards: GMP, HACCP, SQF, FDA, USDA
Assist with commissioning and integrating new automation technologies and equipment
Experience profile
Degree or technical certification in Automation, Electrical Engineering, Mechatronics, or related field
At least 2 years in industrial automation within food manufacturing or another regulated process industry
Hands‑on experience with automated packaging lines, robotics, or machine vision
PLC programming (Allen‑Bradley, Siemens), HMI development, and industrial networking
Knowledge of food‑grade equipment, sanitary design, and CIP systems
Exposure to Mitsubishi, B&R, Tele‑Mecanique, Wonderware, and drives from Mitsubishi, Siemens, Allen‑Bradley, Lenze, SWE
Fluent in reading electrical schematics, P&IDs, and technical manuals
Core competencies
Diagnostic agility and methodical problem‑solving
Clear communication and team collaboration
Resourceful, adaptable, and creative under time pressure
Organized with meticulous attention to detail
Physical & work environment
Operate around machinery and noise with temperature extremes—from blast freezers to boiler rooms
Regular standing, walking, ladder climbing, and occasional lifting
Work flexible hours; weekends or on‑call coverage as needed
Proficiencies you bring
PLC Troubleshooting Skills
Electrical Schematics
CAD Software
Troubleshooting Industrial Automation Equipment
Production Optimization
PLC Programming Experience
High Voltage Systems
Pneumatics Troubleshooting
Tech stack you’ll handle
Variable Frequency Drives (VFD)
PLCs: Allen‑Bradley, Siemens, Mitsubishi, B&R Industrial Automation
