The ideal candidate will have a strong background in PLC and HMI programming, as well as hands-on experience integrating industrial automation hardware and software.

Commission and troubleshoot automation systems both in-house and at customer sites.
Integrate sensors, actuators, motion systems, vision systems, and safety devices as part of complete machine control.
Provide post-installation support and assist with customer training when required.

Required Qualifications:

Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechatronics, Automation Engineering, or related field.
2+ years of experience in industrial automation, with a focus on PLC and HMI programming.
Proficiency in one or more major PLC platforms (e.g., Allen-Bradley/Rockwell, Siemens, Mitsubishi, etc.).
Experience with HMI development tools (e.g., FactoryTalk View, WinCC, Ignition, etc.).
Strong troubleshooting and debugging skills.
Ability to read and interpret electrical schematics and control drawings.
Excellent communication and documentation skills.
