Are you a hands on problem solver with a passion for complex systems, automation, and real-time engineering challenges? We're looking for a Controls Engineer to join a high-performing team at a fast-paced, technology-driven facility operating around the clock. If you thrive on finding smart fixes and long-term solutions to technical issues in a dynamic environment, this role could be for you.

Use tools like Profibus, CAN Bus, and barcode systems to dig into problems and uncover the root causes.
Lead troubleshooting efforts and drive permanent solutions with a focus on continuous improvement.
Support critical automated systems including servo-motion, robotics, conveyors, packaging, and labelling equipment.
Maintain and document detailed schematics, layout drawings, BOMs, and technical documentation.
Own control system architecture, communication protocols, and system upgrades including backups, spares, and obsolescence strategies.
Coordinate SAT/FAT processes and ensure regulatory and quality compliance at all times.
Play a lead role in cross-functional technical projects to boost reliability and performance across the operation.
What You Bring:
Strong hands-on experience with PLCs such as Siemens TIA Portal, Simatic Manager and HMI systems.
A solid understanding of servo systems, VFDs, DC motor control, and field control devices.
Analytical mindset with an eye for detail and a pragmatic approach to complex problems.
Familiarity with industrial safety standards, ATEX environments, and electrical permitting systems.
Confident using CMMS platforms and MS Office tools for reporting and documentation.
Ideally experience in distribution, production, or FMCG environments.
An understanding of control system communications like Ethernet/IP, Modbus, or similar.
