Automate America is a free, fair and open global marketplace for skilled work. Free to post. Free to apply. Free to hire. We connect companies directly with the people who do the work - controls engineers, PLC programmers, robot programmers, automation and maintenance technicians, industrial electricians, mechanical and software engineers, and every skilled trade - across industrial, commercial and residential work worldwide. FOR COMPANIES Post your work free. Name the rate you are willing to pay. Trusted professionals apply to you directly, and nothing gets bid down. We write, design and publish your work across every channel on our dime. FOR PROFESSIONALS Apply directly to real contracts at a published rate, with no recruiter in the middle deciding what you are worth. FOR SERVICE COMPANIES Your non-billable bench is your single largest cost. Apply your available employees to open contracts and take on work bigger than your own headcount, without hiring for it first. WHY WE BUILT IT THIS WAY Founded in 2001. Before the marketplace there were seventeen years of the actual work: automotive body-shop robots at Ford and Chrysler, Wallace Automation incorporated in 2004, over thirty programmers at BMW Spartanburg, machine vision and thermal imaging systems we designed and built ourselves, and projects across the United States, Shanghai, England and South Africa. We have been the independent waiting to get paid, the service company carrying an idle bench, and the integrator who needed six specialists by Monday. Every one of those is the same problem from a different chair: the work and the person cannot find each other fast enough. Almost every product built to fix it put a toll booth at the exact moment the connection was trying to happen. So we did not.
