Proven experience with Allen-Bradley and Siemens PLCs, including programming, troubleshooting, fault finding, and system optimisation.
Strong knowledge of industrial automation, instrumentation, SCADA, HMI, and process control systems.
Demonstrated ability to diagnose and resolve complex automation, control system, and equipment performance issues within a manufacturing environment.
Strong root cause analysis (RCA), problem-solving, and troubleshooting skills, with a focus on reducing downtime and improving operational performance.
A proactive approach to continuous improvement, preventative maintenance, and operational efficiency.
Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to collaborate effectively across production, maintenance, and engineering teams.
A strong commitment to health, safety, and compliance within a manufacturing environment.
