A growing engineering group within a larger corporation is building a centre of excellence for robotics, motion, and advanced automation. They work across automotive, EV battery, aerospace, defence, warehouse automation and heavy industry, with projects that need someone who can take ownership of both robotics and controls delivery.

This role suits an engineer who is confident programming robots, comfortable with PLCs, and enjoys guiding younger engineers. The team is expanding quickly, so there is real scope to shape the direction of the group.

• Program industrial robots and lead development of full robotic cells
• Deliver PLC programming on platforms like Allen Bradley or Siemens
• Support SCADA and Ignition development
• Select robots, work with mechanical teams on end of arm tooling, and integrate conveyance and motion equipment
• Lead commissioning and testing on customer sites
• Work directly with customers and mentor junior engineers
• Contribute to a group that is on track to split into multiple standalone teams over the coming years

• Strong robot programming skills, ideally Fanuc
• PLC programming experience in an industrial setting
• Background in manufacturing, machinery, tool and die, automotive, or similar environments
• Comfortable travelling around twenty to twenty five percent
• Experience with simulation tools, vision systems, AGVs or AMRs is a plus
• Ability to work well with customers and adapt to a fast paced integrator culture
• Five or more years industry experience

This group is scaling and will evolve into several specialist divisions. That creates clear paths for progression into senior technical roles, champion positions, project leadership and future management (if that is your interest).

There are two positions to be filled before Jan. If you're interested, reach out asap.
