You will help design, implement, and sustain automation, robotics, control, and data systems on our production and packing lines, and you will contribute to the site’s digitization roadmap (e.g., data connectivity, visualization, analytics, and smart automation). You will work alongside experienced engineers and multi-functional partners to deliver initiatives that improve Safety, Quality, Cost, Delivery, and Sustainability, while supporting the site’s IWS (Integrated Work System) journey.

This is an early-career leadership role: you will not have direct reports initially, but you will be expected to take ownership of systems and projects, influence others, and build your technical and leadership skills from day one.

• Assist senior engineers in Front-End Engineering Design, FAT/SAT, and line start-ups, ensuring ICA and data/IT/OT requirements are captured and delivered.

• Contribute to the design and modification of automation panels and electrical/automation assemblies under guidance.

Learn to act as system owner for defined ICA and industrial data scope (e.g., a line, a unit operation, or a platform), ensuring:

• Reliable day-to-day operation of electrical, control, and automation systems

• Stable data flows from equipment (sensors, PLCs, robots) into site data platforms (historians, MES, dashboards)

• Proper backups, version control, and documentation for PLC/HMI/SCADA programs and configurations

• Changes follow Management of Change (MoC), cybersecurity, and site standards

• Collaborate with local IT and/or OT specialists

• Provide hands-on troubleshooting support, working with E&I technicians, Operations, and occasionally IT partners to resolve automation, network, and data issues.

• Apply and respect P&G and local safety standards, including Electrical Safety and Lockout/Tagout.

• Support compliance with local electrical regulations and internal Stewardship and Cybersecurity policies.

• Contribute to OT cybersecurity practices in your scope (under guidance)

• Support ICA and data-related input to change controls, quality investigations, and GMP actions, ensuring data integrity and traceability where required.

• Participate in one or more IWS pillars (e.g., AM, PM, E&T, HS&E), supporting implementation of standards, tools, and loss elimination actions.

• Use data from production systems…
