Senior Robot Programmer – FANUC / Welding Automation
Location: KWC Area, Ontario | On-Site
Employment Type: Full-Time | Permanent
Compensation: $45–$52/hour
Schedule: Flexible 4-Day Compressed Work Week
Take the Lead on Complex Robotic Automation
We’re partnering confidentially with a growingcustom automation and systems integration organization seeking an experiencedRobot Programmer to take technical ownership of sophisticated robotic systems used in advanced manufacturing.
This is a senior, hands-on role for someone with deepFANUC programming experience who enjoys solving complex automation problems, commissioning equipment and seeing a robotic cell through from programming to production.
You’ll work primarily acrossrobotic welding and material-handling applications, while also helping develop junior programmers and improve programming standards across future projects.
What You’ll Own
Program and commissionFANUC robotic systems
Develop robot paths, program structures and offline programs
Configure robot I/O, weld interfaces and PLC communications
Supportservo resistance, arc and spot welding applications
Program material-handling applications
Troubleshoot complex robotic and automation issues
Configure communications and network architecture between automation devices
Support installation, startup and commissioning at customer facilities
Read and interpret electrical schematics and mechanical drawings
Support development of robot templates and programming architecture
Mentor junior Robot Programmers and provide technical guidance
Work closely with Controls, Mechanical, Electrical and Project teams throughout delivery
What We’re Looking For
Required
7+ years of hands-on robot programming experience
StrongFANUC programming expertise
Significant experience withincustom automation
Hands-on robotic welding and/or material-handling experience
Strong understanding of robotic coordinate systems and program flow
Experience commissioning robotic cells
Strong troubleshooting capability
Familiarity with offline robot programming/simulation
Working knowledge of industrial communications such as Ethernet/IP
Ability to interpret electrical schematics and technical drawings
Valid driver's license and passport
Ability to travel to customer facilities across North America
Highly Valued
KUKA, Yaskawa or ABB experience
Servo resistance welding
Spot welding
Arc welding
Automotive automation
Robot safety systems and standards
PLC/HMI exposure
Technical leadership or mentorship experience
Who Will Thrive Here?
You’re the programmer people turn to when a robotic cell isn't behaving the way it should.
You can move comfortably betweenoffline programming, robot setup, welding applications, troubleshooting and commissioning, and you understand the realities of getting custom automation running successfully on a production floor.
You also enjoy sharing what you know and helping less experienced programmers become stronger technically.
Why Consider This Opportunity?
$45–$52/hour, based on experience
4-day compressed work week
Profit sharing
Group RRSP matching
Extended health and vision coverage
Health and wellness spending account
Professional development funding
Safety boot and tool allowance
Technical mentorship and continued training
Opportunity to work on challenging, custom-built automation rather than repetitive equipment
The source confirms the compensation, compressed work week, profit sharing and broader benefits package.
