The position verifies that system components function together as designed, identifies issues that could affect startup or customer operations, and coordinates feedback and issue resolution with the appropriate internal teams and third-party vendors.\nThe Systems Commissioning Engineer acts as the final technical integrator between installation, controls, software, robotics, AGV/AMR vendors, project management, and customer operations. The role does not replace PLC engineering, software development, or vendor technical support. Instead, it ensures that issues are found, documented, routed, prioritized, and verified before the system is turned over to the customer.\nOVERALL RESPONSIBILITIES\nCommissioning and Startup\nLead on-site commissioning activities for automated warehouse and material handling systems.\nExecute startup plans for conveyors, sorters, palletizing systems, ASRS, robotic cells, AGV/AMR systems, safety systems, and third-party equipment.\nVerify that controls, software, mechanical equipment, networking, and customer-facing operating workflows function together as an integrated system.\nSupport initial production ramp-up and go-live activities.\nTesting and Validation\nDevelop, maintain, and execute commissioning checklists, functional test scripts, and site acceptance test procedures.\nPerform device verification, I/O validation, functional testing, failure recovery testing, stress testing, and throughput validation.\nValidate system behavior against project requirements, operational expectations, and agreed acceptance criteria.\nConfirm that fixes are implemented and retested before issue closure.\nTroubleshooting and Issue Isolation\nDiagnose issues across mechanical, electrical, controls, software, robotics, networking, and integration layers.\nReproduce problems, isolate likely root cause areas, and clearly communicate required action to the correct owner.\nCoordinate escalation to PLC, software, mechanical, robotics, AGV/AMR, WMS/WCS, and other vendor teams as needed.\nIdentify operational workarounds when appropriate while permanent corrections are being completed.\nIssue Management and Documentation\nCreate and maintain commissioning punch lists, issue logs, defect summaries, and action item trackers.\nDocument observed behavior, steps to reproduce, screenshots or logs where applicable, business impact, root cause updates, corrective actions, and verification status.\nPrioritize issues based on safety, go-live impact, operational disruption, customer impact, and schedule risk.\nProvide recurring commissioning status updates to project stakeholders.\nCross-Functional Coordination\nServe as a technical bridge between Project Management, Controls Engineering, Software, Mechanical Engineering, Installation, Lifecycle Services, customers, and equipment vendors.\nCoordinate issue ownership and resolution without becoming the default owner for every fix.\nSupport customer readiness discussions and help confirm the system is prepared for operational turnover.\nFeed lessons learned back into future project standards, test plans, templates, and commissioning processes.\nKNOWLEDGE & SKILLS REQUIREMENTS\nEducation and Experience\nBachelor's degree in Engineering, Engineering Technology, Mechatronics, Automation, Industrial Technology, or related field preferred.\nEquivalent experience in automation, controls, material handling, warehouse systems, or field commissioning may be considered.\n3 or more years of experience in automation, systems integration, field startup, controls, software implementation, equipment commissioning, or warehouse automation preferred.\nTechnical Knowledge\nWorking understanding of PLC-controlled equipment, HMI systems, electrical devices, sensors, motors, VFDs, safety circuits, and industrial networks.\nFamiliarity with warehouse automation systems such as conveyor, sortation, ASRS, robotic palletizing, picking systems, AGVs, AMRs, scanners, scales, and label print/apply equipment.\nAbility to interpret electrical drawings, mechanical layouts, controls documentation, sequence of operations, test plans, and system requirements.\nExperience working with WMS, WCS, WES, ERP, robotics, or third-party vendor interfaces is a plus.\nPROFESSIONAL QUALITIES\nStrong troubleshooting mindset with the ability to separate symptoms from likely root causes.\nClear written and verbal communication skills, especially when documenting issues and communicating across technical disciplines.\nAbility to prioritize effectively in a fast-moving project startup environment.\nCustomer-facing professionalism and ability to remain calm during go-live pressure.\nStrong attention to detail, follow-through, and documentation discipline.\nWORK CONDITIONS\nRegular travel (75%) to customer project sites is expected, particularly during commissioning, startup, SAT, and go-live phases.\nWork may occur in active construction, installation, distribution center, manufacturing, or warehouse environments.\nSome non-standard hours may be required during startup, testing windows, production cutovers, or issue resolution periods.\nRole requires adherence to customer site safety requirements and Storage Solutions safety expectations.\nWhy work for Storage Solutions - A Jungheinrich Company?\nOur greatest asset is our people.
