Job Description">

This is an exciting opportunity for a Senior Control Engineer to join a forward-thinking, innovation-led organisation that thrives on solving complex automation challenges. Due to continued growth and demand across national and international projects, we are recruiting for a Senior Control Engineer to play a key role in designing and delivering cutting-edge control systems.

As a Senior Controls Engineer, you will design, program, and integrate industrial automation systems from concept to commissioning. You will work on cross-platform PLC and HMI development, vision systems, motion control, and robotic programming, often involving ABB and KUKA robots in advanced production environments.

The ideal candidate will have a passion for innovation and detail, with strong experience in controls engineering, including programming, PLCs, HMIs, and vision integration. The ability to develop and implement automation and control systems for bespoke machinery and robotic cells is essential.

  • Develop and implement automation and control systems for bespoke machinery and robotic cells
  • Program Rockwell and/or Siemens PLCs and develop HMIs
  • Perform robotic programming (ABB and/or KUKA essential)
  • Integrate and troubleshoot vision systems - including Cognex, Micro-Epsilon, or Mech-Mind
  • Create detailed electrical schematics and lead component selection
  • Ensure full compliance with Australian Safety Standards (AS4024)
  • Deliver complex automation projects across varied industries
  • Mentor junior team members and collaborate closely with mechanical, electrical, and software teams

Additionally, the successful candidate will be able to ensure seamless communication between systems, demonstrate exceptional problem-solving skills, and exhibit a high level of technical expertise.

Join a respected leader in industrial automation and work on cutting-edge, high-impact engineering projects. This is not a role for someone looking to work on templated systems, but rather for a hands-on technical leader with a passion for innovation and detail.

About the Role

The Senior Controls Engineer will be responsible for designing, developing, and implementing automation solutions for a range of clients. This includes creating detailed electrical schematics, leading component selection, and ensuring compliance with relevant safety standards.

A key aspect of this role will be working collaboratively with other teams, including mechanical, electrical, and software engineers, to deliver complex automation projects. The successful candidate will also be responsible for mentoring junior team members and contributing to the development of team knowledge and expertise.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Design, develop, and implement automation solutions for clients
  • Create detailed electrical schematics and lead component selection
  • Ensure compliance with relevant safety standards
  • Collaborate with other teams to deliver complex automation projects
  • Mentor junior team members and contribute to team knowledge and expertise

Benefits

This is a fantastic opportunity to join a dynamic, collaborative, and innovation-driven environment where you can grow your career and make a real impact. You will be part of a talented team of engineers who share your passion for innovation and are committed to delivering world-class results.

What's On Offer:

  • Join a respected leader in industrial automation
  • Work on cutting-edge, high-impact engineering projects
  • Dynamic, collaborative, and innovation-driven environment
  • Excellent opportunities for professional growth and development
