Controls Engineer (Engineer II)

Designs, fabricates, modifies, evaluates and documents assembly processes, components, and automated systems to produce or improve company products and facilitate manufacturing operations. Develops data and makes preliminary sketches, lay-outs and notes required to present design proposals. Researches basic design factors such as ease of manufacture and availability of materials and equipment. Works with other organizations impacted by design development.

Responsible for the design, integration, and deployment of automation systems supporting high-level assembly and integration of advanced compute and AI-based server rack products at Jabil’s Florence, KY facility. This position requires application of industrial engineering, mechatronics, robotics automation principles to develop automated manufacturing solutions that improve throughput, yield, and process stability. The role involves end-to-end system integration of automated robotics, vision system implementation, controls configuration, and automation validation.

May perform work in a specific sub-specialty such as Design, Automation, Mechanical Engineering, Industrial Engineering, Technical Project Management, and/or Process Improvement. Please see addendum for specific sub-specialty requirements. This description is designed to capture the general elements of Engineering work in a manufacturing setting.

• ◆Design and develops complex assembly processes, initiates process improvement initiatives for server rack assembly and integration, system level validation, and packaging as assigned.
• ◆Support collaborative integration initiatives between Jabil and third-party automation providers for advanced server rack assembly automation.
• ◆Participate in process improvement initiatives using Lean and data-driven methodologies to increase yield and throughput.
