In this role, you will…

  • Participate as a member of a project team comprised of Project Management, Buyers, Customer Service, and other cross-functional partners to successfully complete conveyor and material handling projects.
  • Own and manage all engineering-related tasks on a project, including maintaining engineering schedules and budgets and tracking engineering change orders.  
  • Lead conversations and drive results with vendors and other suppliers to review and evaluate system and equipment designs.
  • Review customer specifications to ensure requirements are incorporated throughout the design process.
  • Provide technical support throughout the engineering process.
  • Use AutoCAD and/or other drafting tools to complete system reviews, coordinate with external vendors, and obtain customer approvals.
  • Check drawings produced by others for accuracy.
  • Validate handshakes and data exchange between multiple automation solutions to ensure successful integration within the overall system design.

We’re excited about you because…

  • You have a bachelor’s degree in engineering or a related area.

  • You have experience in leading, mentoring, or managing other team members.
  • You communicate effectively across teams and functions, building alignment and keeping work moving forward.
  • You work hard, you work well with others, and you’ve got a positive attitude.
  • This job description is not exhaustive. Other duties may be assigned as needed, and responsibilities may evolve to support the business and employee experience.

About IMI Industrial

Although IMI Industrial was founded on providing millwright services, we have grown to encompass a full-circle approach to the manufacturing industry. We have a fully-staffed team of certified engineers, metal fabricators, and millwrights, so our company is unique in the sense that we can engineer assemblies, components, or machinery, build and assemble them in our shop, and install them in the the field for the client. IMI is there for you from the idea to the finished product.

IMI Industrial was established in 1986 by Tony Stein as Industrial Maintenance, Inc. in Lawrence, Kansas and employed five millwrights. Eventually, the business moved from Lawrence to Perry, Kansas. In 2012, Todd Harrington acquired IMI from Tony, and began to focus on the pet food industry, parcel handling service work, and sought out more lucrative opportunities to help expand the company to an even larger degree.

​In 2017, Industrial Maintenance, Inc. made the move from Perry to a larger Topeka, Kansas location. With an ambitious and forward-thinking mindset, and a team of excellent people who work tirelessly every day to do whatever it takes to get the job done, IMI has grown 1900% since 2009 and employs well over 80 people. We will continue to aggressively pursue relationships with potential customers and maintain excellent rapport with our current clients by continuing to produce quality craftsmanship, on-time delivery, and the expansion of our capabilities as not only a millwright and fabrication shop, but an eventual job shop division that will focus on the full fabrication of large and complex components. We cherish the relationship that we have with our clients, vendors, and fellow employees, and are committed to nurturing a workplace that is conducive to achieving the best results possible.
