Senior Field Service Tech -- Industrial Automation

About the role

At NOVA Automation, we design and build advanced automation systems that keep industries moving — from robotics to material handling and packaging systems. We’re looking for a Senior Field Service Technician II who’s ready to roll up their sleeves, travel, and be part of a team building cutting-edge solutions.

Responsibilities

• Install, troubleshoot, and service robotic and automated systems at customer sites.
• Work directly on the production floor — diagnosing electrical, mechanical, and PLC issues (Allen Bradley, Siemens, etc.).
• Use your tools and problem-solving skills to keep systems running — not just behind a desk, but hands-on.
• Collaborate with engineers and customers to ensure smooth installs, maintenance, and upgrades.
• Travel regularly up to 75% across the U.S. and internationally to support projects.
• Experience with hands-on troubleshooting of automation, robotics, or industrial equipment.
• Familiarity with PLC programming/troubleshooting (Allen Bradley or Siemens preferred).
• Strong mechanical/electrical aptitude — comfortable “turning wrenches” and working in real-world environments.
• Problem solver who thrives in a fast-paced, changing environment.
• Willingness to travel and represent NOVA Automation at customer sites.

Requirements

• Veterans, trade school grads, and candidates with related field service experience encouraged to apply.
• Candidates outside of Colorado with related field service experience encouraged to apply as well (relocation and remote work available).

Qualifications

• Competitive pay + overtime opportunities.
• Paid training & certifications (robotics, PLCs, automation systems).
• Travel perks: company-paid travel, per diem, and relocation assistance available.
• Paid airport club access and self managed travel with points.

Benefits

• Work with a tight-knit team at a growing automation company with global clients.
• Opportunity to make a direct impact on projects and see results of your work.
