A successful candidate will be the critical link between design and operational success, taking responsibility for getting automated equipment commissioned, debugged, and performing to specification. This is a hands-on technical role requiring strong problem-solving abilities, coordination skills, and a deep understanding of automated systems.

Key Responsibilities

Machine Commissioning Debug

Take ownership of automated equipment during the build, debug, and commissioning phases to ensure machines meet performance specifications
Conduct systematic troubleshooting to identify root causes of mechanical, pneumatic, electrical, and control system issues
Coordinate and prioritize debug activities across multiple disciplines (mechanical, electrical, controls) to achieve project milestones
Make pragmatic engineering decisions to balance immediate operational needs with long-term solutions

Technical Coordination Project Management

Develop and manage comprehensive snag lists, tracking issues from identification through resolution
Coordinate activities of electricians, programmers, and technicians working on equipment
Work closely with controls engineers to understand the machine logic and control systems without necessarily programming yourself
Determine the critical path for machine functionality and prioritize work accordingly
Liaise with design engineers to communicate issues and provide feedback for design improvements

Problem Solving Technical Understanding

Demonstrate strong understanding of mechatronic systems including servo systems, robotics, pneumatics, sensors, and machine control architectures
Ask the right technical questions to gather information and understand problems from specialists in other disciplines
Think systematically about how individual component issues affect overall machine performance and project goals
Propose practical solutions and workarounds that keep projects moving forward
Document technical issues, solutions, and lessons learned

Customer Stakeholder Interface

Ensure customer end goals are being achieved throughout the commissioning process
Communicate project status, technical challenges, and timeline impacts to project stakeholders
Support installation and commissioning activities at customer sites as required

Key Requirements

Education Experience

Relevant engineering degree (Mechanical, Mechatronics, Electrical, Manufacturing, or similar) OR equivalent technical qualification combined with demonstrated hands-on experience in automation
Minimum 3-4 years relevant experience in automation environments including:
- Hands-on commissioning and debug of automated equipment, OR
- Introduction and implementation of automation projects in manufacturing environments, OR
- Design engineering role with significant involvement in machine build and commissioning phases

Technical Skills Knowledge

Strong practical understanding of automated equipment including mechanisms, servo systems, pneumatics, robotics and sensors
Working knowledge of machine control systems, PLCs, and industrial networks (programming ability not required but beneficial)
Ability to read and interpret mechanical drawings, electrical schematics, and pneumatic diagrams
Familiarity with 3D CAD applications (e.g., SolidWorks) beneficial but not essential
Basic understanding of machine safety standards and risk assessment principles

Personal Attributes Competencies

Exceptional problem-solving ability– must demonstrate a methodical, analytical approach to troubleshooting complex technical issues
Quick learner– ability to rapidly understand new technologies, systems, and processes
Self-starter with strong ownership mentality– takes initiative without waiting to be directed
Excellent coordination skills– able to manage multiple activities and prioritize effectively in a fast-paced environment
Strong communication skills– must be able to extract technical information from specialists and explain issues clearly to diverse stakeholders
Pragmatic decision-maker– balances ideal solutions with practical constraints and timelines
Hands-on mentality– comfortable working on the shop floor and getting hands-on when needed
Detail-oriented– recognizes that small issues can have large downstream impacts

Additional Requirements

Current driving licence and able to travel to customer sites as required
Flexibility to work outside normal hours when commissioning deadlines require it
Physically able to work around machinery and in industrial environments

Salary and Benefits

Competitive Salary Package
Pension Scheme
Training and development opportunities
Exposure to cutting-edge automation technology and challenging projects
