Design and develop control systems architecture, including PLCs, HMIs, motion controllers, safety systems, and industrial networks. Program and debug PLCs (e.g., Allen-Bradley, Siemens, Omron) and HMIs based on project specifications. Program and fine-tune all control components, including safety devices, servo drives, process hardware, and robots, from power-up to final validation. Collaborate closely with mechanical designers and project teams to ensure seamless integration of controls into machine design. Perform in-house testing of control components and complete system testing prior to deployment. Participate in equipment startup, debug, and commissioning both in-house and at customer sites. Support FAT (Factory Acceptance Testing) and SAT (Site Acceptance Testing) processes. Configure, troubleshoot, and support industrial networks (e.g., Ethernet/IP, Profinet). Maintain comprehensive and accurate project documentation, including code archives, IO lists, BOMs, and technical manuals. Provide ongoing technical support to customers and internal service teams after installation. Complete all required project development documentation and status reports in coordination with the Project Manager. Serve as Lead Controls Engineer when requested by the Engineering Manager, guiding project execution and supporting team members.
