Apply now to join our 2026 hiring pipeline for curious, adaptable problem‑solvers who love travel, hands‑on work, and teamwork. This role involves traveling across North America, working directly with customers, and ensuring automation projects run flawlessly.

Why You’ll Love Working With Us Work + Travel, Combined.

You’ll experience new cities, tackle unique projects, and earn travel rewards while working directly with customers. There is no office to report to, and you’ll be away from home while working.

Fair Pay That Grows With You.

Starting salary $60,000–$75,000, depending on location, education, and experience. You’ll also receive per diem for meals, mileage reimbursement, utilization bonuses, weekend bonuses, and more.

Room to Grow.

We invest in your development through paid training, annual merit raises, and a 5% salary increase after six months. Learn, advance, and build a career that can take you in multiple directions.

Real Benefits + Real Flexibility.

Health, dental, and life insurance, a matching 401(k), short & long‑term disability options, paid vacation, and flexible time off after 18 months.

A Team That Gives You Community.

We’re a smaller, people‑first company where teamwork, adaptability, and humor are part of the job.

What You’ll Do You’ll be part of the team that keeps automation projects moving. At ProAutomated, we don’t install systems; we partner with system integrators and manufacturers to ensure everything works flawlessly when it matters most.

Support data center startups, performing on‑site mechanical, electrical, and control checks.

Lead startup, checkout, and acceptance testing for warehouse fulfillment and manufacturing systems in industries like food and beverage.

Partner with automation and controls engineers to test, troubleshoot, and validate their systems on‑site.

Provide clear communication and updates to customers and project teams to keep progress smooth and accurate.

Typical travel rotations follow a days‑on/ days‑off schedule: 5 on – 2 off, 10 on – 4 off, or 14 on – 7 off.

What We’re Looking For

A genuine love of travel; expect to be away from home on rotation.

Preferred experience: working knowledge of electrical systems, programming, and communication networking.

Adaptability and grit; you thrive when plans change and challenges pop up.

Strong communication and problem‑solving skills.

Must live within 50 miles of a major airport (relocation assistance available).

Personal vehicle within 45 days of employment (for local projects).

Authorized to work in the U.S.

Technical degree or equivalent hands‑on experience (3+ years) in a related field such as electrical, mechanical, or automation engineering.

Physical Requirements

Ability to walk long distances across large facilities or job sites.

Climb ladders, stairs, or work at heights.

Lift, carry, and move up to 50 lbs.

Stand, kneel, or reach for extended periods.

Work in varied environments (construction sites, outdoor, hot/cold).

Reasonable accommodations may be made to enable individuals with disabilities to perform these essential functions.

Ready for a Career That Takes You Places? If you want a career that’s challenging, travel‑filled, and far from ordinary, where your effort actually matters, we’d love to meet you.

Apply now to get on our radar for early 2026 hiring.
