Position: Electronics Technician
Division: New Manufacturing, Remanufacturing
Location: McGraw, NY
RTE, or Refrigerated Transport Electronics, is a McGraw, NY-based electronic equipment manufacturer and software solutions provider for the refrigerated transportation industry and we currently have openings for full-time positions in our re-manufacturing and electronic repair and assembly divisions.
What we do at RTE
Our products are found in ports and terminals around the globe, providing shippers with essential data on the condition of their perishable cargo. Plus, we do some pretty amazing things here, like remote monitoring equipment that reports conditions inside a refrigerated container and sensors that monitor the cargo inside. We also answer the question, is the container door open or closed? Container yard managers want to know, and we have sensors that monitor that. Plus, many other innovative products.
Think about it, bananas from Ecuador, oranges from Brazil, and blueberries from Chile, all found at your local supermarket, were likely monitored at some point in their journey with products made right here in McGraw! And you can be a part of this too.
