Industrial engineering and fabrication services for process industries
Technical Associates is a project-focused industrial engineering firm serving pulp, paper, food & beverage, and chemical sectors across the southeastern U.S. The tech stack is heavily weighted toward industrial control systems (Rockwell Automation, Allen-Bradley PLCs, FactoryTalk) and CAD/design tools (AutoCAD, SolidWorks), reflecting a traditional manufacturing-services business with no cloud or modern DevOps adoption — a baseline signal that engineering workflows remain on-premises and process-driven rather than software-driven.
Technical Associates provides end-to-end project delivery for industrial clients: engineering design, fabrication, construction, and technical staffing. Founded in 1980 as a pure engineering consultancy, the firm has expanded to offer in-house fabrication and construction capabilities, allowing projects to move from inception through commissioning without external contractors. Operations span three locations (Albany and Atlanta, Georgia; Alexandria, Louisiana) with active focus on process upgrades, electrical control systems design, facility layout optimization, and machine commissioning across their core verticals.
Industrial automation and design tools: Rockwell Automation ControlLogix, Allen-Bradley PLCs, Ignition SCADA, FactoryTalk, SolidWorks, AutoCAD, and Wonderware. Primary suite is Rockwell Automation for controls and Microsoft Office for documentation.
United States only, with active roles in engineering (11), manufacturing (5), and construction (2). Recent postings show a senior-skewed mix (10 senior, 4 junior, 4 mid-level roles).
