Here are the rotations to use:

Cell used: Plasma Cell until you receive Armor-piercing Cell

Companion used: Jorgan (DPS) until you get M1-4X (Melee Tank)

Starting out, you’re going to have limited options for DPSing. As such, the priority you will be using early on is:

Sticky Grenade > High Impact Bolt > Charged Bolts > Hammer Shot

Layer a Hammer Shot in between each skill to manage your cells and maximize your dps.

Use Mortar Volley and Hail of Bolts on AoE packs.

Later down the line you will get a skill from your talent tree. The priority once you receive that is:

Sticky Grenade > 5x Grav Round > High Impact Bolt > Charged Bolts > Hammer Shot

And finally, you will receive Demolition Round at 40. Your rotation/priority system should look like this:

5x Grav Round > Demolition Round > High Impact Bolt > Charged Bolts > Hammer Shot

Again, be sure to layer a Hammer Shot between each cast and only use Mortar Volley and Hail of Bolts on AoE packs.
