Summary

As an Automation Engineer, you’ll be part of transforming legacy systems into intelligent operations. You’ll work on end-to-end solutions that span control system design, programming, commissioning, and support—across domains like oil & gas, offshore platforms, utilities, and more.

Key Responsibilities:

·        Architect, program, and deploy automation systems using platforms like PLC, SCADA, and DCS (Rockwell, Siemens, Schneider, etc.)

·        Design smart automation solutions such as remote monitoring, smart wellhead control, and simulation-driven training tools

·        Create electrical schematics, control panel layouts, and documentation using AutoCAD or EPLAN

·        Integrate industrial communication protocols such as Ethernet/IP, OPC UA, Modbus, Profibus

·        Support Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT) and Site Acceptance Testing (SAT)

·        Collaborate with mechanical and process engineers to troubleshoot and resolve complex system issues

·        Engage directly with clients and deploy systems in operational environments—not just test labs

Who You Are:

·        A problem-solver who thrives in dynamic, hands-on engineering roles

·        Experienced across the complete automation lifecycle: from design to commissioning

·        Proactive communicator, decision-maker, and self-starter

·        Enthusiastic about emerging technologies like IIoT, edge computing, and machine learning in control systems

Required Qualifications:

·        Bachelor’s degree in electrical, Controls, Mechatronics, or Instrumentation Engineering

·        2–8 years of hands-on experience in industrial automation

·        Proficient in tools such as Rockwell Studio 5000, Siemens TIA Portal, or Wonderware

·        Skilled in designing and troubleshooting control panels, industrial networks, and safety systems

·        Familiarity with field instrumentation, hazardous area classification, or offshore control systems is a strong plus
