ABOUT HARIKRISHNA T.
I fix robots. I program them. And when they go wrong on a supercar production line — I\'m the one who brings them back.Currently at Multimatic, I support the automated paint process for the Ford Mustang GTD, one of the most technically demanding low-volume vehicles in North American automotive manufacturing. Every day I\'m operating and maintaining FANUC P-250iB paint robots on 50-foot explosion-proof rails, dialling in path accuracy to deliver flawless 2K solvent sealer, base coat, and clear coat finishes — to OEM standards, every single cycle.But my story didn\'t start in a paint booth.I spent nearly 6 years as an Engineer at Torrent Power in India — designing LV distribution networks, managing underground cable fault resolution, and keeping the lights on for hundreds of thousands of people across Surat. I learned what reliability means when failure isn\'t an option, and I brought that mindset to Canada when I transitioned into industrial robotics.That transition wasn\'t easy. I retrained at St. Clair College, earning Academic Distinction in Electromechanical Engineering Technician – Robotics, while simultaneously working in long-term care to fund my studies. I then joined Digital Shovel, where I assembled, calibrated, and maintained 6+ different FANUC robot models across arc welding, palletizing, and paint applications.My technical toolkit:🤖 FANUC Robots: P-Series, M-Series, ARC Mate, SCARA, | R-30iB/A Controllers PLC: Allen-Bradley (RSLogix Studio Ethernet/Safety) Paint Processes: Sealer, Base Coat, Clear Coat, 2K Solvent Systems Diagnostics: Fault analysis, servo systems, teach pendant programming (TPP) Compliance: ANSI/RIA R15.06, Canadian Electrical Code, Process Control PlansOutside of work, I volunteer as a Robot Inspector and Judge at FIRST Robotics Canada — because I believe the next generation of automation engineers deserves real mentorship, not just theory.If you\'re a hiring manager looking for a FANUC-certified technician who brings power engineering discipline to robotic automation — let\'s talk. Open to roles in: Robotics Technician | Automation Engineer | PLC/Robot Programmer | Paint Process Tech Greater Toronto Area — Available immediately
