Melfi Technologies Inc. is a North American-based, innovative industrial controls and automation company with more than 30 years of experience specializing in engineering, consulting, and systems integration services for industrial and manufacturing customers worldwide.

Our capabilities range from cost analysis and project planning through detailed design, project management, system integration, commissioning, start-up, and ongoing technical support. We provide complete, customized control and automation solutions for our customers.

Melfi Technologies Inc. is recognized for providing integrated automation and control solutions for continuous-process and industrial systems across a variety of industries. Our clients include some of the world's most respected companies in the food and beverage, chemical, plastics, and pharmaceutical industries.

This position involves significant customer-site work and travel. Candidates should expect approximately 25% travel throughout the year within Canada and the United States, with occasional overseas travel. Travel requirements fluctuate based on project schedules and typically increase during busier commissioning and start-up periods throughout the year. Candidates must be comfortable with periods of increased travel when project demands require it.

Travel Requirement Travel is an essential requirement of this position and is not optional. Approximately 25% of the employee's working time should be expected to involve travel, primarily within Canada and the United States, with occasional overseas assignments.

Travel is project-driven and will vary throughout the year. Certain periods may involve little or no travel, while commissioning, installation, and start-up periods may require substantially more frequent travel. Candidates should therefore expect travel requirements to rise during busier periods of the year and must be willing and able to accommodate these fluctuations.





Travel assignments may include multi-day or multi-week customer-site visits depending on project requirements.

- Electrical principles, industrial control systems, and the ability to read and interpret electrical drawings and schematics
- Variable-frequency drives (VFDs), motor-control systems, and servo/motion-control systems
- Industrial instrumentation and process-control concepts would be considered an asset
- Strong analytical, problem-solving, and troubleshooting skills
- Self-motivation and the ability to work effectively both independently and within a team
- Excellent verbal and written communication skills
- Ability and willingness to travel approximately 25% of the time, with increased travel during peak project, commissioning, and start-up periods
- Valid driver's licence
- Valid passport and ability to travel within Canada, the United States, and internationally as required

This position is particularly well-suited to a recent Electrical Engineering graduate interested in building a career in industrial automation, seeking extensive hands-on experience with PLC programming, HMI/SCADA development, electrical controls, industrial networking, commissioning, troubleshooting, and customer-site applications.
