Staffing and deployment services for industrial automation engineering
Talos Automation staffs automation engineering roles and manages on-site deployment projects across automotive, material handling, life science, and process automation. The tech stack reflects deep integration with Rockwell Automation and Siemens platforms (TIA Portal, ControlLogix, Studio 5000, RSLogix) — standard across tier-one industrial automation shops. Active hiring is heavily weighted toward engineering (30 of 35 roles) at mid-to-senior levels, while project focus centers on robot cell deployment, commissioning workflows, and virtual commissioning, suggesting the company is scaling field execution capacity as customer demand for installations outpaces current staffing.
Talos Automation, founded in 2013 and part of the STR Group, supplies contract and permanent staffing for industrial automation engineering across North America and Europe. The company serves automotive OEMs, material handling integrators, life science equipment builders, and process automation vendors with engineers skilled in PLC programming (Siemens, Rockwell, ABB), controls design, robotics, and mechanical engineering. Core services span contingent recruitment, permanent placement, and fully outsourced retained teams. The company also executes deployment and commissioning projects on-site, combining staffing with project delivery to accelerate customer time-to-market.
Rockwell Automation (ControlLogix, CompactLogix, Studio 5000, RSLogix, FactoryTalk), Siemens (TIA Portal, S7 PLC), and ABB (RobotStudio). Engineering roles require fluency in PLC programming, HMI design, and simulation tools like AutoCAD Electrical and RobotStudio.
Yes. 30 of 35 active roles are engineering positions (mostly mid-level and senior), posted at accelerating velocity. Hiring spans the US, Netherlands, Peru, Canada, Austria, Germany, and France.
Executes on-site deployment and commissioning projects: robot cell simulation, virtual commissioning, pre-commissioning workshops, and full installation workflows for customers scaling robotic automation and intralogistics solutions.
