About this Role
Enterprise level exposure:
MPNO is a flagship automation initiative for ILS, impacting a site that handles over half of the MPN network’s volume. The engineer works directly with ILS leadership, site operations, IT, safety, and external integrators, gaining visibility well beyond a single facility.
End to end automation experience:
This role spans the full lifecycle of a major automation program—solutioning, detailed design, installation, testing, go live, and stabilization—covering AS/RS, robotics, AMRs, kitting automation, system integration, and process redesign. Few roles provide this depth across both engineering and operations.
Transferable, in demand skills:
The engineer develops highly marketable capabilities in automation design, capital execution, safety by design, systems thinking, and change management, all aligned to LSNE standards intended for replication across the global network.
Blueprint for future roles:
Because MPNO is explicitly designed to replicate lessons learned from PDNO and serve as a model for future sites, experience gained here positions the engineer as a go to SME for future automation deployments across ILS.
Typical task breakdown:
- Support logistics engineering for the MPNO automation transformation, including design development, capital justification, implementation planning, and on site implementation support.
- Collaborate cross functionally to deliver safe, practical solutions; support installation, commissioning, risk mitigation, and provide clear project updates to Engineering and Operations leadership.
Interaction with team:
- Daily interaction with MPNO program team, and periodic interaction with Americas region engineering team.
Team Structure
- This position will report to the Americas region engineering manager who is located in Morton, IL. Day-to-day project work will be directed by the MPNO program manager.
Work environment:
- This role provides hands on exposure across the operation, with an expected 50/50 split between office based work and time on the production floor, collaborating directly with operators and contractors. PPE will be provided.
