The role will involve contributing to the development of electrical, control and automation solutions across a range of engineering projects. Working alongside a wider engineering team, you will be involved in the development of systems and solutions from initial requirements through to completion.
This is a varied, hands-on engineering position suited to someone who enjoys solving technical problems and working on practical engineering projects. The role offers the opportunity to develop your technical knowledge while working across a variety of projects and technologies.
Key Responsibilities:
* Develop electrical and control solutions for engineering applications.
* Develop, modify and support PLC-based control systems.
* Assist with the preparation of electrical drawings and technical documentation.
* Contribute to the development and testing of engineering solutions.
* Work collaboratively with engineers across different technical disciplines.
* Assist with project documentation, technical information and bills of materials.
* Investigate and resolve technical issues as they arise.
* Support the integration and implementation of engineering systems.
* Contribute to testing and verification activities.
* Provide technical input during project development.
* Liaise with relevant internal and external stakeholders as required.
* Ensure engineering work is completed to appropriate quality and safety standards.
* Maintain accurate engineering records and documentation.
* Keep up to date with developments in control and automation technologies.
About You:
The successful candidate will have a background in control systems, automation, electrical engineering or a related discipline, together with a practical and methodical approach to engineering.
You will ideally have:
* An engineering degree, HNC/HND or equivalent technical experience.
* Previous experience in control systems, automation or a related engineering environment.
* Experience developing or supporting electrical and control systems.
* Experience working with PLC-based systems.
* Knowledge of industrial automation principles and practices.
