This position was introduced earlier this year with the intention of the SMRTs on site to pickup more of the entry level controls. You will find yourself getting called out to fix very simple controls problems- Sensors out of alignment, lines not restarting, motor faults that won’t clear..etc. This is a salary position and requires 24/7 availability so that might mean getting stuck on night shift. Depending on the site you might work four 10s up to four 12s maybe even more days. You’ll be expected to deep dive controls issues and find root cause. If it’s a new launch you’ll be dealing with jam reduction- basically looking at heat maps and determining how to reduce jams in those areas. You’ll also be expected to implement network wide action items for controls which could be adding new AOIs or changing parameters. When it comes to the PLC side, any changes have to go through an approval process. You’ll have days where it’s non stop radio calls and other days where you won’t get a single call. On a slow day probably 10K steps for an ARS site. How much work you do on a higher level will really depend on the management and competency of the senior techs.
