- Provide technical support and troubleshooting for commissioning teams, service personnel, and clients.
- Collaborate with engineering, project management, sales, and service teams to deliver integrated automation solutions.
- Participate in design and project reviews to improve system design, software functionality, and compliance.
- Conduct peer code reviews and foster a culture of continuous learning and knowledge sharing.
- Maintain up-to-date knowledge of Australian standards, cybersecurity best practices, and OHS/WHS requirements.
- Travel to client sites for commissioning, training, and troubleshooting as required.
What we are looking for:
- Minimum five years' experience in automated systems, robotics, and industrial technologies.
- Tertiary qualifications in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field.
- Proven experience in controls engineering, software development, maintenance, scripting, and support in industrial or automation environments.
- Proficiency in programming languages including C, C++, C#, Java, Python, and Structured Text.
- Experience with industrial hardware platforms (Allen-Bradley, Siemens, Beckhoff), servers, IPCs, PLCs, SCADA systems, and network topology.
- Knowledge of SQL databases, communication protocols (Ethernet/IP, ProfiNet, Modbus), and IDE platforms such as Visual Studio.
- Strong customer service skills and a solutions-focused, proactive approach.
- Excellent attention to detail, time management, and organisational skills.
- Outstanding interpersonal and communication skills.
- Ability to work flexible hours during commissioning phases and travel to client sites as needed.
- Current and valid Australian driver's licence.
