Robotic Maintenance Technician
\nFull-Time | Onsite – Rochester, NY area | Direct Hire | $23–$34/hr DOE + Shift Differential

\n\n

About the Opportunity

\n\n

Our client is an established precision metalworking manufacturer serving a wide range of industries — telecommunications, computer and business machines, medical, heavy transportation, and automotive, among others. They run a strong automation and robotics presence across their operation and are currently consolidating into a single, modern facility. Culture matters here: they have strong core values built into performance reviews, and cultural fit weighs as heavily as technical skill. There's room to grow into a lead role over time for the right person.

\n\n

The Role

\n\n

Our client is looking for a Robotic Maintenance Technician to keep their automated systems running. You'll manage all aspects of automated robots and auxiliary equipment — preventive maintenance, troubleshooting, and repair across a highly diverse machine environment. You won't need to walk in as a robotics expert; a solid mechanical foundation plus willingness to train on their robotic systems is what matters. It's a hands-on, physically demanding shop (heat, noise, electrical exposure), and you'll need to listen to operators to understand unfamiliar equipment before diagnosing issues. This is a 2nd-shift role (four 10-hour days) with on-call availability for emergency breakdowns.

\n\n

What You'll Do

\n\n

Manage all aspects of automated robots and auxiliary equipment
Maintain a strong preventive maintenance program (lubrication, cleaning, inspection)
Troubleshoot and adjust robot programs and fixtures
Align, fit, and assemble component parts using hand/power tools, fixtures, and templates
Troubleshoot robotics systems — programmable controllers, electronics, sensors, hydraulics, pneumatics
Replace defective components (circuit boards, sensors, controllers, encoders, servomotors)
Install, program, and repair robot controllers, end-of-arm tools, and conveyors
Interpret machine manuals; diagnose and resolve malfunctions
Maintain sensor/cable inventories and service records for automated systems
Visually inspect and test machinery, listening for issues

\n\n

What You Bring (Must-Haves)

\n\n

3–4 years of mechanical experience
Willingness to train on robotic systems (robotics expertise not required to start)
Ability to read blueprints and interpret operation manuals
Proficiency with hand/power tools and mechanical testing equipment
Availability to respond to emergency callbacks and work a flexible schedule
Must own tools

\n\n

Nice to have: welding, machining, or plumbing experience; prior exposure to robotic systems or automation; electrical/PLC background.

\n\n

Not a fit: frequent short tenures across multiple employers, or candidates with no manufacturing maintenance background.

\n\n

Compensation & Benefits

\n\n

$23–$34/hr DOE plus $1.50/hr shift differential • profit-sharing potential • comprehensive benefits package.
