Automation Jobs in Colorado: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a automation in Colorado?
Most automation roles in Colorado require at minimum an associate degree in electrical engineering technology, mechatronics, or industrial automation from an accredited Colorado community college or university. Employers increasingly expect hands-on PLC and controls experience, which programs at institutions like Front Range Community College and Red Rocks Community College provide. Earning a Certified Automation Professional credential through the International Society of Automation strengthens a candidate's profile and is recognized by Colorado's aerospace and defense manufacturers.
Which companies hire automations in Colorado?
Colorado automation roles are posted by ProAutomated, Crimson, and Siemens and others right now, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of October 2026. Colorado's concentration of aerospace, defense, and semiconductor manufacturers means many openings come from large established facilities with ongoing automation and controls needs.
Which Colorado cities have the most automation jobs?
Denver, Colorado Springs, and Longmont have the most automation openings in Colorado. Denver anchors the market through its dense industrial and technology base, Colorado Springs draws consistent demand from aerospace and defense contractors clustered around the military installations there, and Pueblo and Loveland contribute through manufacturing and clean energy projects that rely heavily on controls and automation engineers.
Are there remote automation jobs in Colorado?
Yes, but they're rare. Automation work is fundamentally hands-on, requiring physical access to equipment, production floors, and control panels, so most Colorado roles are on-site. About 61% of automation openings tied to Colorado are remote or hybrid as of October 2026, and those positions tend to be in project management, controls design, or technical sales rather than direct implementation or commissioning work.
How can I get hired as a automation in Colorado with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is completing an associate degree or certificate in industrial automation, mechatronics, or electrical technology at a Colorado community college and targeting technician or controls apprentice roles at manufacturers in the Front Range corridor. Large Colorado employers in aerospace and advanced manufacturing often hire recent graduates into structured technician pipelines. Lateral moves from maintenance electrician, electronics technician, or machine operator roles are common, and building a portfolio of PLC lab projects or earning a foundational Certified Automation Professional associate credential gives candidates a clear edge.
Where can I find and apply to automation jobs in Colorado?
You can find and apply to automation jobs in Colorado on Migrate Mate, which lists current Colorado openings across the state's aerospace, defense, and manufacturing sectors. Search the listings to find roles that fit your experience level and specialization, then apply directly to the ones that match.
