Job Description

Automation Applications Specialist

For over 50 years, Armo-Tool has been a family owned and operated business. Now in our third generation, we have earned a reputation for delivering complete “one-stop” automation solutions tailored to our customers needs. Our over 50-year history of building long-term relationships with manufacturing companies throughout North America is based on a focus on service and repeatable quality.

While our industry does rely on continuous investment in precision machinery and design systems, our success depends on the unique skills, knowledge, and hard work of our employees. Their importance in achieving our mission is reflected in every aspect of our operation.

We're looking for an Automation Applications Specialist with a strong foundation in controls and industrial automation to help our customers bring innovative production systems to life. In this role, you'll be the bridge between our Automation Teams and our customers - translating complex manufacturing challenges into smart, efficient automation solutions.

Responsibilities

  • Act as the primary technical expert for automation solution design, development, and implementation.
  • Analyze customer requirements, production processes, and system needs to identify opportunities for automation and process improvement.
  • Lead application development from concept through commissioning, including system specifications, integration plans, and technical documentation.
  • Prepare detailed quotations and proposals, including solution concepts, component selection, labour estimates, ROI calculations, and cycle time analysis.
  • Collaborate closely with sales and project management teams to ensure smooth project execution and customer satisfaction.
  • Provide post-development support, troubleshooting, and recommendations for continuous improvement.

Requirements

  • Degree or Diploma in Automation, Controls, Industrial Engineering, Mechatronics, or a related field.
  • 5+ years of experience in automation or controls applications, ideally in a customer-facing or system integrator environment.
  • Strong understanding of PLC programming, robotics, motion control, and manufacturing systems.
  • Skilled at analyzing processes and developing scalable, efficient automation strategies.
  • Excellent communication and presentation skills - able to translate technical details for both engineers and operators.
  • A self-starter who thrives in a fast-paced environment and can manage multiple priorities independently.

At Armo Tool, you'll work on cutting-edge automation projects across a variety of industries, collaborating with a passionate team that values innovation, efficiency, and real-world problem solving. This is a chance to make a measurable impact on how our customers build the future of manufacturing.
